Level of the Week

The Weekly Archive

Every Monday at 00:00 UTC a new hand-picked connector puzzle goes live: four players, one clue, one week. This page keeps the history. Answers are revealed only once a week has ended - the current puzzle stays spoiler-free, so go and play it first.

This week

Level of the Week #7

Live now until Monday 31 August. Stefan Savić (Trabzonspor), Romelu Lukaku (Inter Milan), Ryan Gravenberch (Ajax) and Alejandro Garnacho (Manchester United). One player has shared a dressing room with all four.

Clue: "I became the 3rd most expensive goalkeeper of all-time in 2023."

Week 6 · 17-24 August 2026

Marc-André ter Stegen

The board: Oscar Gloukh (Ajax), Thomas Lemar (Girona), Granit Xhaka (Borussia Mönchengladbach) and Antoine Griezmann (Barcelona). The clue pointed at 423 Barcelona appearances, seven La Liga titles and a Champions League - but the trap was the Girona and Ajax slots, both from ter Stegen's post-Barcelona wanderings rather than his prime.

Week 5 · 10-17 August 2026

João Palhinha

The board: Andreas Pereira (Fulham), Leroy Sané (Bayern Munich), Xavi Simons (Tottenham) and Nuno Mendes (Sporting Lisbon). A holding midfielder hidden behind four attackers - and the clue about scoring on the final day of 2025/26 to keep Tottenham up sent plenty of people hunting for a striker.

Week 4 · 3-10 August 2026

Marc Cucurella

The board: Enes Ünal (Getafe), Alexis Mac Allister (Brighton), Kike (Eibar) and Raheem Sterling (Chelsea). The clue was simply "se bebe una Estrella" - if you know, you know. The Eibar slot was the one that unlocked it: Cucurella's loan season there is the forgotten chapter of his career.

Week 3 · 27 July - 3 August 2026

Jordan Henderson

The board: Sadio Mané (Liverpool), Wout Weghorst (Ajax), Danny Welbeck (Sunderland) and Reiss Nelson (Brentford). The clue recalled his most memorable moment of the 2026 World Cup - falling over an advertising board. The Ajax slot carried the puzzle: many people never registered Henderson's Amsterdam spell at all.

Week 2 · 20-27 July 2026

Mikel Merino

A midfielder whose career quietly threads through four leagues. Merino's Newcastle season is the link most people forget, sandwiched between Borussia Dortmund and his Real Sociedad years before Arsenal.

Week 1 · until 20 July 2026

Luka Milivojević

The original. The board: Arthur Masuaku (Olympiakos), Chancel Mbemba (Anderlecht), Evandro (Red Star Belgrade) and Michael Olise (Crystal Palace). The clue - "I most recently played in the UAE Pro League" - was pure misdirection by omission, since everyone remembers the Palace penalties and nobody remembers what came after.

How the Level of the Week works

One puzzle, hand-picked, refreshed every Monday at 00:00 UTC. Unlike the campaign it comes with a written clue, and unlike the dailies it stays up all week - so there is time to let it nag at you. Signed-in players keep their weekly results and streaks. When a new week begins, the old puzzle retires here with its answer revealed.
