Nationality Of Premier League Footballers (2014/15)

This is a pretty straightforward post really. The only rule I put in place in terms of eligibility was had a player actually played in the Premier League this season (14/15). Some guys have been injured all season, some guys just haven't played yet. Tough luck.

54 nationalities, 463 players.

42.1% are from the UK. 48.1% are from the UK & Ireland. 77.5% are from Europe.
