List of foreign A-League Men players

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of foreign players in the A-League Men, which commenced play in 2005. The following players must meet both of the following two criteria:

  1. Have played in at least one A-League Men game (including finals). Players who were signed by A-League clubs, but only played in cup and/or continental games, or did not play in any competitive games at all, are not included.
  2. Are considered foreign, i.e., outside Australia and New Zealand determined by the following:
A player is considered foreign if he is not eligible to play for the national team of Australia or New Zealand.

More specifically,

  • If a player has been capped on international level, the national team is used; if he has been capped by more than one country, the highest level (or the most recent) team is used. These include Australia/New Zealand players with dual citizenship.
  • If a player has not been capped on international level, his country of birth is used, except those who were born abroad from Australian parents or moved to Australia at a young age, and those who clearly indicated to have switched his nationality to another nation.

Clubs listed are those for which the player has played at least one A-League Men game. Note that calendar years are used. This follows general practice in expressing years a player spent at club.

As of 19 October 2024, 95 different nations have been represented in the A-League Men. Lebanon is the most recent nation to be represented with Walid Shour debuting for Brisbane Roar on 19 October 2024.
