I may be wrong on this, but it sounds to me like it functions the same way FM does in this regard, where existing players in the game are automatically placed on their respective national teams with the AI generating new players to fill in any gaps. For example, if Germany only has one existing player in the game (Max Kepler), the AI will automatically generate a full roster of fictional German players to flesh out Germany's national team.

If that is how it indeed works, that naturally begs the question as to whether or not we can opt to use ghost players on national teams instead the same way we can when simming the minor leagues if we don't want fictional players in our game. I haven't played FM in a few years, but FM used to generate ghost players with names that were simply grayed out as opposed to the completely invisible (more ghost-like, I suppose) ones OOTP generates when this option is selected.
