List of foreign football players in Tajikistan

This is a list of foreign players in the Tajik League, which commenced play in 1992. The following players must meet both of the following two criteria:

  1. Have played at least one Tajik League game. Players who were signed by Tajik League clubs, but only played in lower league, cup and/or Asian games, or did not play in any competitive games at all, are not included.
  2. Are considered foreign, i.e., outside Tajikistan, determined by the following:
A player is considered foreign if he is not eligible to play for the national team of Tajikistan.

More specifically,

  • If a player has been capped on international level, the national team is used; if he has been capped by more than one country, the highest level (or the most recent) team is used.
  • If a player has not been capped on international level, his country of birth is used, except those who were born abroad from Tajikistan.
