Book a free demoHow a move is counted
A player counts when they played at least 8 games in Champions League and, within 450 days of their last game there, at least 8 games in Japan D1, with the first game in Japan D1 in the last 5 years, for a different club. Seasons played in both leagues at once - a domestic league and a European cup - are not a move. All figures come from official box scores.
