Advanced Search is based on an innovative database that allows you to analyse millions of data in a few seconds and offers a number of filters to qualify players: from the most common ones, such as age, nationality and market value, to the most detailed statistical values, such as our unique EPI-indicators for defence and offence.

With filtering, you can control not only what you want to see, but what you want to exclude. You can filter based on your preferences and create specific filters to focus on exactly the players your are looking for.

ALL PLAYERS or FAVORITES: Options to choose to filter all players in the database or only the players in your "favorites" list.

NO FILTER PRESET: Indicates that no preset filters are applied. The drop down menu provides options to save the current filter preferences or choose previously saved filters. Default filter presets are also provided by our system.

SEASON: In addition to actual and previous seasons, there are additional options that allow taking a look at the performance of the last months or a specific date range up to 4 years.
​
​LEAGUES: Currently selected league and competition. From this dropdown menu all league and competitions available in the database can be selected. Simply tap the checkbox on the left of the league name, or click on the checkbox on the black bar on top to select (or deselect) all leagues.

FAVORITE LEAGUES: All leagues and competitions bookmarked before as favorites for recurring search.

TEAMS: Currently selected teams and countries. Use this dropdown to filter for teams and countries available in the database.

FORMATIONS: Use this filter to search for players within a specific formation. 

POSITIONS: By tapping "Positions" in the menu, you can filter on a specific position if you want to research available players. With activating the checkboxes you can filter here for

(i) Overall: all performances, players categorised by most common

position

(iii) Detail: separate profiles according to detailed positions

AGE: Apply this to set up a specific age group for players to be considered.

MINS: The minimum number of minutes a player must have played in the selected time period. The default setting is at least 250 minutes played.

CONTRACT ENDS: Apply this filter to search for players with certain contract terms, especially for all players available on a free transfer or whose contracts expire in the upcoming summer. Tap the checkbox "Incl. player with missing data" to include players for whom no contract data is available.

VALUE: Filter players according to their respective market value based on the data available at transfermarkt.com.

NATIONALITY: Select which nationalities you want to apply, to make it even easier to search for players with EU citizenship.

OVERALL RATING: Filter by relevant EPI-ratings and/or the "Contribution Values" %Defence, %Offence and %Pass.

ON THE BALL / OFF THE BALL: Apply these dropdowns to filter even more precisely for specific indicators and skills.

You can visualize the value distribution for each criterion. This will help you to assess filters and carefully select your candidate's skills. Set up values and the filtered players are displayed in scatterplot and live table.

The scatter plot displays the value of four variables at a time. The visualisation axes can be assigned any of the performance categories also available as filter on the right hand side. If you hover the mouse over the data points you'll get a first impression of a player's statistics.

The live table directly beneath the scatter plot shows players available after applying the specified filter. The column heads can be clicked to sort the table as desired.

You can find further filter options for the players, such as "Name", "Age", "Team', "League", "Position", "Defence", "Offence", "Mins" and "Rating".

You can download the current player list on your device as a csv file by pressing on the small arrow in the top right corner of the live table.
