I always find it interesting to look into players past clubs to see their career progression prior to being on a "Championship-level" club. These are all of the players on Fluminense and LDU that have played in nations outside of Brazil and Ecuador respectively.

I've mentioned in the past that I follow the J-League, so I think it's pretty cool that Fluminense has 6 players that have played in Japan in their career. In fact, Washington was the leading scorer for the league champion Urawa Red Diamonds in 2006, with 26 goals and was also named to the league best eleven that season.
It's really amazing to see all of the former nations where the players have played, some of these guys are real journeymen. Here's a listing of the former nations that the finalist players have played in earlier in their career.
