Guess the player by the clubs they played for. Here’s an easy starter -

Audax Italiano - Chelsea - Blackburn - Wigan - Werder B - Schalke - Rayo V - Mineiro - San Lorenzo - Göztepe - Tijuana - Católica - Rivadavia.

The only rule is: If you Google it, you’re a wanker.

Franco Di Santo?

Deportes Quindio - Deportivo Cali - Monterrey - Atlas - Necaxa - Wigan - Fulham - Akhisarspor - Trabzonspor - Denizlispor - Bahia - Santa Fe.

Blackburn - SC Paderbon - St Pauli - QPR - Cardiff - Reading - Vancouver - Aberdeen - Hibernian.
