A season appears when the provider records the player in that club’s squad for it. It is not a statement that he played in every fixture of it, and for a mid-season transfer both clubs will show the same year.
What the league columns are for: a season in which the whole division averaged 2.4 goals a game is a different setting from one at 3.0, and a club finishing fourth in a league where the champion took 96 points sits differently from fourth behind a champion on 78. The figures here describe the competition around the player, not his own output — the archive behind this site records matches, not appearances, so a personal tally cannot honestly be derived from it.
For the same reason there is no goals or minutes column. Adding one would mean taking it from somewhere this site does not hold, and a number without a traceable source is exactly what the rest of these pages avoid.
Frequently asked
Does this page list every match the player appeared in?
No, and it does not claim to. The archive behind this site is match-level with no player dimension, so an appearance list cannot be built from it. What is shown instead is the league record of the clubs he was registered with, season by season.
Which clubs of Éver Banega’s are covered?
Atletico Madrid, Inter, Sevilla, Valencia — the sides whose leagues are in the archive. Spells outside the five covered leagues have no season rows here.
What do the goals-per-match and home-win columns describe?
The whole league that season, not the player’s club. They are there as context: a season in which the league averaged 2.4 goals a game read differently from one at 3.0.
Where does the club and season list come from?
The squad records of the data provider for the career span, cross-referenced against this site’s own league files. Nothing on the page is entered by hand.
