List of foreign EFL Championship players

This is a list of foreign players in the EFL Championship, which commenced play in 2004. The following players must meet both of the following two criteria:

  1. Have played at least one Championship game. Players who were signed by Championship clubs, but only played in lower league, cup and/or European games, or did not play in any competitive games at all, are not included.
  2. Are considered foreign, i.e., outside Great Britain and Ireland, determined by the following:
  • 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 British/Irish 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 British/Irish parents or moved to Great Britain/Ireland at a young age, and those who clearly indicated to have switched his nationality to another nation.

Clubs listed are those the player has played at least one Championship game for—and seasons are those the player has played at least one Championship game in. Note that seasons, not calendar years, are used. For example, "2004–06" indicates that the player has played in every season from 2004–05 to 2005–06, but not necessarily every calendar year from 2004 to 2005

The players in Bold are those who are currently playing in Championship.
