Answer 1

Store the output in temporary table along-with the total count; set the output variable value and return the required columns from temporary table

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[GetLeaguePlayers]
(
    @idleague int,
    @pageNumber int,
    @pageSize int,
    @total int OUTPUT
)
AS
WITH CTEPlayers AS
(
    SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY p.Name) AS RowNumber, p.Id, p.Name, t.Name AS Team
    FROM Players p INNER JOIN Teams t ON p.IdTeam=t.Id INNER JOIN Leagues l ON l.Id=t.IdLeague
    WHERE l.Id=@idleague
),
TotalCounter(TotalRecords) as
(select count(1) from CTEPlayers)


SELECT Id, Name, TotalRecords(select TotalRecords from TotalCounter) into #tmp
FROM CTEPlayers c
WHERE RowNumber>@pageSize*(@pageNumber-1) AND RowNumber<@pageSize*@pageNumber;

SET @total = ( SELECT TotalRecords FROM #tmp)

select Id, Name from $tmp

drop table #tmp
