Legal have in common that this league impose on him football success requires a Global Assembly of play its take a look at the international talk. Like f. C. Buy in liverpool boss alone and you ventus top of each club squad is made up of players from around the globe well this is around the world. Looks at the global migration routes players take. The fans travel to the ground is like you want to show to have plenty of stories to tell. People who travel far and wide for football now. Life. Today shaped by global migration in europe the number of expats reached level in 2841. 5 percent played in the clubs and leagues around the comp thats almost every 2nd player. Take a look at the international top. A bit less than half of by on the squad a foreigner is slightly more than half of Liverpool Team 2 same goes for barcelona and that you vent to a solid majority in the squad are known to tell the migratory routes has become an essential part of football i wonder how do these rooms look like i want to know why do footballers migrate and where do they go. Do you know this book around the world in 80 days well this is around the world in 10 minutes. How many professional footballers player brought over 13000 out of the 60000 around the world. And the vast majority of them over 19000 play in the average age of 1st migration abroad in europe stands at 21. 8 years today migrating players are as young as never before a little surprise here professional football has a solid anchoring in europe actually there are people crazy enough to publish entire studies about football as going abroad for example to switzerland based football observatory in this terrible colors i know but hey they produce great data. 1st of all which is a country that most tourists travel to. Correct its friends around 90000000 people travel to the country with that tower each year a good bottle of wine and maybe a selfie with a who did not go abroad yet next on this list are spending and the United States of america. But which country imports the most footballers i wonder also france maybe. Professional footballers have other preferences their top destination is being over 700 foreign players are to be found in the english professional leagues that may be because of the weather but surely because of the level and rather competitive salaries nobody knows how breaks that will affect this by the way don johnson how many foreigners in your favor club. Top destination number 2 italy more than 600 players enjoy their footballing life in. Italy even the number one players from wales scotland and Northern Ireland and england were not counted as foreigners technically speaking they are not but im sure many of you know that all of these u. K. Entities have their own football associations and who is number 3 Germany China qatar. All wrong number 3 the United States of america now thats a great and i want you to list of top tourist destinations maybe i should call the guys from the observatory. Almost 600 players are bound to make America Great again i mean strictly football. The m. L. S. Will be enlarged from now 24. 00 to 30. 00 teams by the time of the world cup 2026 which will take place and he would say canada and mexico now more clubs will mean more foreign players because these new clubs have to be made attractive competitive fast the list of principal importing countries continues with a whole range of european nations spain portugal turkey germany belgium france and greece only in 11th place comes the next european country mexico the 1st african nation on that list on position 29 is south africa the 1st Asian Countries japan ranked 31st so a short recap the top important nations are england italy and the u. S. So what does this say europe rules everything yes and no just to remind you the last 4 world champions were all european and one reason for this might be found in the next test because if you look at the country which sends the most players abroad a new continent comes into the game. The clear winner here is brazil over 1300. 00 brazilians played 150. 00 leagues around the world. At the last world cup brazil had only 3 players on a team who earned their money back home in brazil was brazil eliminated in the quarterfinals against belgium because of that. Despite this the high number of brazilians going abroad certainly reflects the unique role brazil has in supplying footballers worldwide then again the country has 200000000 inhabitants. If you look however at the correlation between number of inhabitants and number of footballers going abroad the number one footballers exporting nation of the world is. Ice land more than 50 iceland has play abroad while the country only has 350000 inhabitants now that is 0. 014 percent of the population of iceland in brazil that share is 0. 0006 percent. Ice and in the lead montenegro 2nd your wife 3rd if you look at it this way lets take it back to the number of players and forget about correlations for the moment so who follows brazil on that list as the main exporting nation. France is number 2 argentina and number 3 both have close to 900 professional players in action number of. The top export nations are brazil france and argentina. If you think this is all kind of predictable have a look at number 4. Number 4 is serbia never won anything internationally or can even close then again it only has been a country in this shape since 2006 why serbia not before ahead of countries such as england colombia or nigeria explanation number 150 out of some 450 serbs playing abroad are contracted in neighboring countries of the former yugoslavia such as Bosnia Herzegovina that means Family Friends well known environments are close and people around them speak the same or a similar language. The remaining 400. 00 serbs a spread out pretty much all over the world Europe Russia kazakhstan hong kong and counting serbia has only 7000000. 00 inhabitants but its a surprisingly strong export country. Take this brazil france in argentina by the way all these statistics are so far have nothing to do with real life which nations you think have the biggest i guess for us. In general 10600000 russians live abroad 13000000 mexicans and 16000000 indians so these are the most basic facts are you still with me you are right. Which are the big migratory proofs. Brazilians conquered the world and big numbers but where do they go to i was kind of surprised when i found out what their main destination is. Over 250 brazilians playing professional leagues in portugal. Youre too like in the case of the serbs a language plays an important factor why is that. In the year 1500 the older of you might remember portugal claim presume upon the arrival of its fleet there in 822 brazil declared its independence. From portugal now that its been a while to both countries until today its big portuguese and share a privileged relationship so the biggest migratory route in World Football is also a reflection of colonial past has it turned a Portuguese League into a powerhouse though not really plus many in brazil complain that young talents leave too early they should play at home make the local league stronger the 2nd most important migratory route is from argentina to chile over 100 fellow countrymen of messi went across the enemies didnt help though. How many times have to lay in teams won the cup believe it or is not often wants to be precise and that was 28 years ago still seems to offer plenty for those argentinians who cant make it to their top teams at home or in europe many argentineans also chose mexico almost 100 rather far away but at least they can speak spanish there. Isnt always about language and culture in the next case definitely. Almost 80 germans went to play in turkey the big majority are of ethnic origin. Exceptions to that rule this. Among the top 10 migratory routes around the world one clearly stands out almost 100. 00 french players chose to try their luck in england here for a change its not about culture or language here its about proximity about status and obviously in the end also about. Money. These are the top migratory language and culture greatly influence our decision where to go. So what does all this mean for the respective clubs and leagues are they all overrun by foreigners 1st of all expects rates or not divided equally throughout the world including in europe where most of them play but which league has the most foreigners per club in europe take a guess. Its cyprus which has 17 per team on average but it is hardly much different in one of europes top leagues at least. There is 16 on average per team next up portugal turkey belgium and of course the premier league the percentage of players having grown up in england has progressively fallen in recent years it has reached a new negative record last season almost 67 percent are foreigners now continental european players are more numerous on premier league pitches than u. K. Nationals im getting confused here are in premier league and said yeah pretty cool leagues but attractive football and high attendance is there not profit from all this foreign talent. Then again like the league and spain is among the european leagues with the lowest percentage of foreigners on the pitch only 40 percent actually. League as a top league as well honestly im lost one thing is for sure its not all that simple what about things such as identification with your club or organic growth of a team what about stability or is it just new players from all over everything there are regulations in the european top 5 leagues though when it comes to foreign players in the German Bundesliga team needs to have at least 12 german nationals on it squad the Spanish League its a maximum of 3 non e. U. Nationals per team. Players such as messi and what is out though because the argentinian also has a spanish passport and they require an italian one in the premier league there are no regulations yet. When it comes to you players at least their teams need to have socalled home grown players until 2020 that number of will be enlarged to 12. In france its for non e. U. Nationals per team. And it leaves 4 players born in italy and 4 at least homegrown ones but is all this enough or is it not that big of a problem what do you think how does for benefit from migration should there be stricter rules or should there be no borders at all but you know in the comments. I need a holiday after this i tell you that. Yeah why should i go to france like the other 90000000 people good idea because then i could ask. How much longer hes going to stay in france sadistically speaking he has 2 more years and then he will go abroad and even though statistics kind of suggest that he could get a very good contract in cyprus you can play with a lot of foreigners there i have a strong feeling you just. Visit spaniards migration routes lead into gold mines was a big win for the black and yellows we analyze what makes package cuts are so valuable to do and next. Wherever the goes the goals are sure to follow as per usual hes already scoring a plenty this season with 5 goals in 5 games but something is new now regular start of the spaniards working for the team and serving up assists we take a closer look at his evolution at dortmund. Last season defending was not exactly his strong suit his one example against both plugged in at a time when were leading one nil axel vits a loss the ball in full play is instantly hostile to win it back. Even goldmans forwards were quick to track back and help protect their single goal advantage. With one exception. Kept the weight around in the opponents half after regaining possession jaden censure took off on a switch counterattack and as others sprinted up field again kept the trotted into position as of Almost Legendary pace when the chance came his way he snapped it up so often to no. Battles he popped back strikes to get. Most of his goals last season were created just like this usually after coming off the bench but this is the new package fitter and more involved suddenly hes become a regular starter off the ball hes working harder when dortmund lose possession kaffir joins the hunt closing a gap of over 11 meters here fighting for his team. Hes now doing this 9 times a game up from 4 times on average last season. His pack 03 loaded with extra mileage in this instance he loses the ball the old packer wouldnt have chased after it but now he does carry the opponent winning back possession and setting off straight away on the next forward sprints. This is just the kind of more aggressive proactive style coach museum fava want to see from a spanish scoring machine. 13 sprints on the ball per game almost double last seasons average. His new style of play opens up new opportunities against you in berlin a pack of fights to win the ball and keeps going. His run through the middle opens up options for marco royce he can throw the ball through to a calf or if no markers follow him. Or alternatively royce can play out wide into space. And sanchez to exploiting. 2 options and this time it goes out to sun show prolific. Provider resists being one up on a plate for the man in the middle. Because the. Dead like. Hes dispatched every clear cut chance to come his way in the current campaign. Some things havent change thank rebel nurse for goal and his sheer class inside the box alex burke have it covered in depth here with 2 men are not kaffir no room no problem a couple of discrete steps back and 3 seconds later hes all on his own and makes the finish look just as easy. I think i. Won gold for every 3 chances thats also on a par with last season. With the new improved our copper doing his share of the leg work for the team almost title race chances are looking even better. Not bad philippic which she knew was not too shabby either plenty of unit for a month now the brazilian is settling nicely a buy and find out why now. New sights new experiences new pleasures for me because she know it started to feel at home in me and was governor of all but ive enjoyed the odd stroll with my family its a lovely city and the people a very friendly. It was a move that seemed to be an easy one for him on the Training Field and in the stadium but also thanks to the help from his teammates and personal minister of integration so younger i can tell. Ya has been a tremendous help with the language hes doing his bit for me every day on and off the pitch and everyones made us feel very welcoming and i think thats just part of the club culture its like one big families i mean. Special treatment for a special player nicknamed the little magician since his liverpool days that binds hes already doing it justice slipping through rival defenses in apparent defiance of the laws of gravity. And this is a league where its not easy to make football look effortless. Cames is so intense every team will fight to the ends and its a battle to win every. Card she knew brings fresh right talent he to the engine room after an arrow dominated by the wing play of i am robin and funky barely find once again have a natural string pullers in the middle against cologne of the weekend he marked another premiere to hear. Texada sat by his 1st job. For more song and feels great to school my 1st goal for this club and these fans james the prophecy and. His 1st goal is symbolic for the new collective spirit of this revamped byan team brother levon just hes usually the one to shoot the penalties but he voluntarily handed the job to the new mac a sort of belated welcome aboard gift. That was a really great gesture for all of them dusky he was on a hat trick but instead he gave me the opportunity to school my 1st goal for the lions. And i was very happy about that and grateful for it too. Its only fair because kids you know played his part in by the opener and later on the 4th and final for fellow newcomer eva parrish each good signs of bias toward the defense ambitions but no grounds for premature complacency. On the floor water. Just started we need to train harder every game and keep improving its going to be a battle brought to the finish.

Its a best story that ive heard was that s favela a tiny club in 4 girls after a 20 year break they refunded their Football Team when they finally had enough people town with only 400 residents isnt really big enough to maintain its own Football Team but they fixed up their old beautiful stadium with wooden stands thats one place i always like to visit.
