Abstract :The popularity of games like FIFA and Football Manager has attracted millions of players. Data plays an increasingly prominent role in these games. In other words, these games contain data from all soccer players worldwide, which can be used to simulate soccer games. Therefore, a lot of experts and a lot of tools are involved in producing football data. It is not only the production of this data that has attracted researchers, but also the analysis of it since useful and consistent information can be extracted from it to design real-world football applications. In this study, we introduce a survey of studies which focus on the prediction of player value/performance using machine learning techniques. As far as we know, there is no survey in the literature that specifically addresses this topic.
