Everything is related.
How can you say it is not interdependent.

It's option A.
Football is played on the field so the inner circle is football and the outer circle is the field for the players, not all players play football, and If some players play football then they play on the field. Thus, the circle on the right represents players.

@All.
In these relation-diagram questions, circles usually show class inclusion/overlap of members, not “location” or “activity performed on.”
So the issue is this:
A field is a place
Football is a game
A player is a person
These are not sets of the same kind of objects.
Why is A problematic?
If football is inside the field, that means every football is a field, or football is a subset of the field.
But a game cannot be a subset of a place.
If the player circle overlaps with the field, that means some players are fields or some fields are players, which is also not logically right in set terms.
