Where is he most likely to go? 662 clubs ranked

Three things have to be true at once, so they multiply: can they afford him × do they want him × does he want to go there. That last one is what a buying club’s shortlist does not capture — it is why the best player in the Bundesliga ends up at Bayern rather than at whoever needs him most.

The route

Do players make this move
Country route80
And these pull on it too:
Rival×0.77
a key player at a direct rival — they will not sell
Well-trodden route×1.20
players move from that league to this one more often than average
Signs abroad×0.90
this club signs far fewer of its own countrymen than the list suggests

The final score is appeal × feasibility. The left half may trade off against itself — an expensive talent makes up for his price with potential. The right half may not: if one thing is impossible, the transfer is impossible, however good the rest looks.
