What is Club Football 11?
Club Football 11 is a daily lineup builder where each of the 11 positions must be filled by a player from a different football club. A player is eligible for any club they have played for (current or former). New puzzle daily.
Heads-up: This is the one variant where the twist is clubs, not countries: every position must come from a different football club. A player counts for any club they have played for.
Why Clubs lineups are harder
You are not picking by nation — each of the 11 slots is a different club, and a player only fits a slot if they actually played there. Knowing transfer histories (who turned out for Sevilla, Dortmund, or Monaco) matters far more than knowing nationalities.

Frequently asked questions
What is Club Football 11?
+
Club Football 11 is a daily lineup builder where each of the 11 positions must be filled by a player from a different football club. A player is eligible for any club they have played for (current or former). New puzzle daily.
Is Club Football 11 free?
+
Yes — no signup, no paywall. Streaks and stats live only in your browser.
How is the 11-clubs rule different from Futbol Grid?
+
Futbol Grid is a 3×3 board of club × country intersections. Club Football 11 is a lineup builder: pick a formation, then fill 11 slots, each from a different club. Different game, same club knowledge.
Can I use two players from the same club?
+
No. Each of the 11 slots must come from a different club. Once a club is used it is locked out for the rest of the lineup.
Which clubs are in the pool?
+
The 83 clubs with at least 5 players in our database, spanning the major European leagues plus selected clubs worldwide. The daily 11 is drawn from this pool.
Can one club fill a whole XI?
+
46 clubs in our database have 11+ players — enough to field a full XI on their own. Real Madrid is the deepest with 89 players tracked.
How does a player count for a club?
+
If they have played for that club at any point (current squad or a previous spell), they are eligible for that club’s slot. A player can only be used once per lineup, though.
Why are some formations greyed out?
+
The validator checks whether the day's 11 clubs can fill each formation — every position needs at least one club with a player in that role. Greyed = not solvable.
Which is the deepest club squad?
+
Real Madrid (89 players), followed by Chelsea FC (86) and FC Barcelona (83). The Deepest Squads table on this page lists the live top 12.
Where does club data come from?
+
Transfermarkt, Wikipedia, and official club pages, manually audited by the PlayFutbol Data Team.
Does Club Football 11 feed the same badges?
+
Yes — Polyglot, Perfect Day and Streak-30 count plays across all games. Per-variant streak isolation is on the roadmap.
How is this different from chemistry-based draft games?
+
Games like SuperDraft score you on chemistry or squad value. Club Football 11 uses a single hard rule — 11 different clubs — with no scoring layer, so it rewards transfer-history knowledge rather than min-maxing.
Build streaks across all 48 games
Playing the Global Clubs Edition counts toward PlayFutbol's cross-game achievement badges — Polyglot (play all 48 games), Perfect Day (finish all48 in one day) and Early Bird (finish before local noon). The knowledge compounds too: a transfer fact you learn here pays off the next day in Futbol Grid, Missing XI, and Career Path.
