Consequently, please find hereafter the list of players (with valid license as per end of last season) by category who have changed category for the new season.

Please also note, that while the 2020 World Cup is technically staged after the end of the 2019-20 season, it is considered the Season Ending Tournament, and therefore, the above listed category definitions apply.
