A journeyman is a term used to describe a football player who has played for many clubs during his career. Whilst most players change clubs at least once in their careers, Journeymen are rarely at one club for an extended period, and some seemingly change club every year.

Goalkeeper John Burridge is often regarded as the quintessential football journeyman. He made league appearances for 15 English league clubs and five Scottish league clubs in a 27-year career. He was also on the books of four English league clubs and one Scottish League club without playing games for them, and also had spells at six non-league clubs – a grand total of 31 clubs.
