Workaround for nested objects

What about flattening your data structure and indexing these as separate documents, is that a possibility? e.g.

 {
        playerId: 123,
    	firstName: "John",
    	lastName: "Doe",
    	clubName: "Bayern",
       status: "active",
       position: "goal keeper"
    }
 {
        playerId: 123,
    	firstName: "John",
    	lastName: "Doe",
    	clubName: "Manchester United",
       status: "inactive",
       position: "defense"
    }

I think that would be easier to work with in Kibana.
