Strange list. Not sure what your purpose is, and what kind of naturalized players it should contain. Only those that played for their new country's national team, or all pro players that ever been naturalized by a European country? Either way, the list is very imperfect. Just based in the example of Poland, about which I am qualified to speak about. For instance: Poland Stanley Udenkwor (Nigeria)- Never played for Poland NT Emmanuel Olisadebe (Nigeria)-OK, played for Poland NT and was naturalized Roger (Brazil)-Ditto Thiago Cionek (Brazil)-Not naturalized, has Polish citizenship by virtue of having Polish grandparents, similar as Podolski and Klose in Germany Hernani (Brazil) - not capped yet Hermes (Brazil) - not capped yet In addition to Hernani and Hermes there are over a dozen more players from various countries who played professional soccer in Poland and have been naturalized as Polish citizens. You need to clarify what exactly you want your list to reflect.
As i wrote, i want to create a list of naturalized players in Europe. As further information, i wrote caps for NTs for the players. I didn't say that all those "extra" infos are correct, you can ignore them if they're false. As i said, my main goal is to collect naturalized players in the Uefa countries.
