A journeyman is a term used to describe a football (soccer) player who has played for many clubs during his career, or for clubs from a range of different countries. Whilst most players change clubs at least once in their careers, Journeymen are rarely at one club for an extended period, and some seemingly change club every year.
Notable examples include German goalkeeper Lutz Pfannenstiel, who has played on all six continents, for a total of nineteen different clubs.
