Hi guys,
I am developing an immaculate grid style game and I need the players club history data for this. I can export the current clubs of the players I need from FM but as of now, I haven't found a good way to bulk export the club history and I was wondering if anyone of you guys could help me with that.
I was running a script to fetch the data from wiki as all the apis I know are either unreliable or too expensive, to get the history but there is just not enough information.
If this is the wrong thread, please excuse me.
Thanks in advance

Let me explain my use case a bit more in detail so you see where I’m coming from:
I’m developing an Immaculate Grid–style football game, where the challenge is to find players who match two constraints (e.g. Club × Nation, League × Position). For this to work, I don’t just need the current club of each player, but ideally their entire career club history — so if a player has played for multiple clubs in different leagues, the grid can be solved in multiple ways.
Example: For Cristiano Ronaldo I’d need
Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, Al Nassrinstead of just “Al Nassr”.
I can already export the current squads from FM (RTF/CSV), but I haven’t found a way to bulk export the “History” tab data (all past clubs).
My questions to the community:
Has anyone managed to bulk-export career history data with Genie Scout, FMSE, or the pre-game editor?
Is there an existing data dump or script that extracts full club history for players (ideally CSV/JSON)?
Even partial datasets (e.g. only top 5 leagues) would be extremely useful.
I’ve already experimented with fetching club histories from Wikipedia/Wikidata, but the coverage is patchy and unreliable compared to FM’s database. That’s why I’m asking here — since FM has the most complete data, maybe somebody has already cracked this problem.
If someone does have a way or a dataset, I’d be more than happy to clean it up and publish it back here for everyone to use. I think it could be a really nice shared resource for the community.
Thanks in advance! 🙏

Bonjour a tous, j'ai fais une demande pour modifier les attributs d'un joueur sur la dernière maj. Elle est notifié active, cependant quand je lance une partie, ce n'est pas prit en compte…. Comment faire?
Merci d'avance pour vos réponses 🙂

Just to be clear, I do not want to use this commercially. It‘s just a fun project to learn to develop

I extracted the data from the box2box website about a year ago but never got round to cleaning it up, its all id's and js at the moment, but you can give it a go if you like. Its up to date from March 2024 I'm pretty sure
on second look it actually looks very incomplete, apologies

Hey, thanks for your reply. Would you mind if I still have a look? Maybe there is anything I could use. Thanks in advance.
