    Notes:
    [1] (*) Indicates players still playing at least at club level.
    [2] Clean sheet totals include matches in which the opponents scored before the goalkeeper in
        question entered but not afterwards, or only scored after he was substituted or sent off;
        in some cases the totals indicated are minimum numbers but might in fact be higher.
    [3] Mbonihankuye also played 2 matches (2 clean sheets) for Burundi.
    [4] Ujkani also played 20 matches (3 clean sheets) for Albania.
