Filtering two tables without relationship but with same values

Hi everybody,

I would like to know if it was possible to find a way to use one filter for two tables even if they are not related. Indeed, in my model, I cannot add relationship because it would create ambiguity with the other relationships. Here is an example of my table :

I would like to have one filter which allow me to select a player but without creating two filters (one for each table). 
Thanks in advance for your time and your help

Maybe you should create an extra table with players. You need to create relationships between the new table and the two existing tables. You can use the player from the new table in your slicer.

As @henkvankester mentioned, I am not sure either what you trying to filter, but the second table seems like its finding the average distance for a player, if you create a measure in the first table to find an average distance by the player, I believe would solve your problem.

if not, Userrelationship is way to go.

For exemple, here I would like one slicer which allows me to select one player.
For exemple, if I select "Joueur1" in my slicer I would like to have the table values of this player only for the table "Trainings" and the table "Games" even if they do not have a relationship.

I don't know what you want to filter, but maybe you should create an inactive relationship between these tables.

 

Next, you should make a measure like: 

 

CALCULATE( ..... , USERELATIONSHIP('nametable1'[joueurs], 'nametable2'[joueurs])

For exemple, here I would like one slicer which allows me to select one player.
For exemple, if I select "Joueur1" in my slicer I would like to have the table values of this player only for the table "Trainings" and the table "Games" even if they do not have a relationship
