This page is part of the WikiProject on Football and provides a list of known fully professional leagues, and also those that are known to not be fully professional. As such, this list can be used as an aid in considering the WP:NFOOTBALL guideline, which states that "Players who have played, and managers who have managed in a competitive game between two teams from fully-professional leagues, will generally be regarded as notable."

The lists are currently incomplete and some entries are lacking sources. Players who have not played in a fully professional league listed below may meet Wikipedia's General notability guideline.

If the source indicating the status is in a PDF document or other long article, please indicate the page number or sub-section. If the source is not in the English language please list the foreign-language text that confirms the fact, and provide an English-language translation.
