The FMDB's own figure, not a game scouting star: the weighted mean of the recorded attributes for each role, on the source's own 1–20 scale, with a role's key attributes counted 2× its preferable ones. Roles are offered only for positions with a recorded competency of at least 10, and a role scored from under 70% of its attributes is withheld rather than published from a handful of values.

Caps, goals, previous nations, debut and first goal come from person_international_record where the version exports it; debut and first-goal dates are decoded in FM24 and rarely elsewhere. Versions without the table show senior caps from the player row only. Eligibility lists the nations person_nationality marks eligible-for. No export establishes youth-level records. Missing fields stay blank.
Honours
FM24 exports achievements with event codes and date precision in starting_person_history and starting_person_history_date. Other versions remain unsupported, and this panel still needs validated event interpretation. A club spell during a winning season does not prove a personal medal. The awards panel below shows recorded placings.

Career appearances and goals combine the recorded player_history rows this page has checked do not overlap: every detail row, plus a summary row only where no detail row covers the same season at the same club. The clubs count is the distinct clubs in the career spells above. The date of a first professional contract is not derivable from the earliest history row.
Season record
Season record
One row per season as the export recorded it. A transfer fee is shown where a figure was stored; where the source recorded only a sentinel — "Undisclosed fee", "Unknown fee" — that sentinel is printed instead. A fee of zero is a fee of zero, not a missing one.

Nearest recorded attribute profiles among 120 players in Bundesliga within 15 current ability, compared on the attributes both record. Not a whole-database search. The match is the mean absolute difference over those attributes expressed against the 1–20 scale; an attribute only one of the two records is left out rather than counted as a gap of fourteen.

person_days_at_location, person_trained_statusTraining days and recorded home-grown status Exported; UI pendingThe modern schema includes days, age bands and trained-at-club or trained-in-nation relationships. Rule codes and target kinds must be respected; these rows do not prove eligibility under every competition rule. -

person_nationality, person.declared_nation_uidAdditional nationalities and declared nation Now liveSecond, third and resident nationalities with their source relationship labels, and the declared nation, are displayed where the version exports them; CSV-era versions say so. -
person_contract_detail, person_club_statusContract type, squad status and explicit unattached status Partial exportContract type is displayed where contract_status is decoded (FM24); the FM26 exports carry the column as NULL on every row. squad_status has no lookup table and has_no_club is not yet used; a missing contract is not evidence of free agency. -

person_international_recordSenior and under-21 goals, caps and debut details Now liveSenior and under-21 caps and goals, previous nations, debut and first goal are displayed where the version exports them; CSV-era versions fall back to senior caps from the player row. Youth categories are not established. -
