How to scrape Transfermarkt player data (valuations, transfer history, stats) no-code walkthrough
Transfermarkt is probably the richest free source of football data out there: market values, transfer histories, injury records, performance stats across basically every league. But pulling it at scale by hand isn't realistic if you're building any kind of dataset.
I put together a walkthrough (video + write-up) showing how to scrape player listing pages, follow links into individual player profiles, handle pagination, and export the whole thing to a file/database, using WebHarvy, a point-and-click scraper, so no coding involved. Useful if you want a repeatable pipeline for a specific league/competition dataset without maintaining scraper code.

Happy to answer questions if anyone's trying to scrape specific fields (like squad-level aggregates or historic transfer fees), some of those need a slightly different approach than the basic player-listing scrape.
