player_value_estimator

About The Project

This project is my attempt at creating a player value estimator. The aims of this project are as follows:is to

  • Scrape transfer data from Transfermarkt.co.uk and scrape player performance data from fbref.com.
  • Clean the scraped data and transform into a usable format
  • Unify the cleaned data
  • Build a model from the data that can estimate player transfer values

Built With

  • Python
  • BeautifulSoup
  • AWS

Prerequisites

This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.

Usage
