I've managed to secure a large player statistic dump for the entire English Premium League. We have some players missing so it would be great to have some help adding those players from the list. Just click the + button to auto add them with their name or the search icon to lookup details on google such as date of birth. It would be awesome to add their club histories as well as we go:

Once its complete I can import the entire premium league player statistic history. We would also have the every player who ever competed in our database. Pretty cool long term project.

for existing players that were not linked, how we should proceed? is it possible to also check alternate names in order to link players?

Example:

Son Heung-min: https://www.thesportsdb.com/player/34155394-heung-min-son
