age, nationality, position, and short_pos are empty when they aren't listed on Transfermarkt.
market_value and fee are empty if they're unknown or not applicable. Transfermarkt market value is based on community estimates, so market values are generally more available in higher rated leagues and as time goes on. Fees are unknown if they have been undisclosed or not reported, and not applicable for certain kinds of player movement, e.g. retirements and bans.
- 0 is not recommended as a fill-in, to avoid confusion with free transfers and loans that have a known fee of 0.
- Check dealing_club and dealing_country for the things like retirements and bans.
dealing_club and dealing_country are empty if they aren't listed on Transfermarkt. dealing_country is also empty for the special movements like retirements and bans (check dealing_club for specifics).
loan_status is a computed column that is empty only if is_loan is false. It can be safely filled however you wish.
