How to read this
- The season in progress is left out of the trends. Squads fill up as a season goes on, and the numbers added last are the high ones.
- Leagues run different rules. Spain numbers its first-team squad 1–25, which decides both how high its numbers go and whether 13 is used, so it is never averaged in silently.
- The data is compiled from Wikipedia and is thinner for some seasons than others; a season with fewer than 100 numbers on record is left off the trend.
