List of one-club men

A one-club man is a footballer who has played his entire professional career with only one club. In the strictest definition, one-club men are rare in football due to the effects of the large pay offers from rival clubs and promotion and relegation systems used by most professional leagues. Promotion creates the tendency for (mostly younger) players to be lent out to gain first-team experience, while relegation causes players to move for financial reasons (most often the case if the club is relegated or in debt) and for (mostly older) players to play at a lower level in order to prolong their careers.

In addition to those who spent their entire playing career with a single club, there are several examples of players remaining with a single club throughout their entire career within the professional club game — playing, coaching, management, etc. Notable examples are listed below.

Players who spent their whole career with one club (making 100 or more appearances, or playing 10 or more seasons) include:
