internationals
Athletes from abroad
Internationals are people from other countries, or sporting competitions between national teams.
In professional sports, an international is a match where players represent their nations rather than their clubs: He's away on internationals this week.
The term also refers to players who have represented their country: The team signed three internationals during the transfer window.
