Legal issues around using real players names and team emblems in an open source game

Ok...this question hasn't been asked before, its very similar to some, but here's the difference:
I am making a soccer/football simulator game, that only has national teams (with no official logos) just the country names and flags.
Now, my doubt is the following...can I use real player names (that play or played on that national team?)
From what I understand if I use a player name linked to a club like Barcelona FC (not a national team) I need the right from the club and the association that club is linked to, right?
But If I am only linking the name just to a country...I might just need the permission of the actual player (that I am using his name) and not any other associations, correct?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Cheers,
Diego.
