stuboy Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 has anyone seen a regen come through with dual nationality. Would be nice to have a few. Although considering the fact that most come through with only one foot.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalimyr Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I've seen loads, including some with three nationalities. Among them: Blessing Abdul, England/Nigeria Leung Man Pan, England/Hong Kong/Ireland (before you suggest that I've played for a while and this lad got Irish nationality by playing in Ireland, he's 16 and came up from Colchester's youth system six months ago) Mohammed Peters, England/Nigeria/Australia Carlos Bonfim, New Zealand/Brazil Collins Nwosu, Nigeria/England (this guy is in my squad) Liu Jian, Scotland/China Cidimar Monteiro, Brazil/Spain Marc Scholz, Wales/Germany The likes of Liu Jian certainly catch your eye when you see a Chinese name on a Scottish player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkyMark Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 In my latest MLS Superdraft there were 9 Mexico / U.S.A.. They all had Spanish/Latino names except Gabe Shaw. There was also Alberto Collado, who is Brazil / Spain / Japan. EDIT: That's out of 125 players. There are a ton of Mexico / U.S.A. regens in the game by the way.

stuboy Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Good to see that it does happen, never seen it myslef, was jsut always annoyed because the great South American regens I find never seem to have Spanish or portugese nationality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveYourSympathy! Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 It tends to happen a fair bit in the English leagues, particularly with clubs based in London, where you tend to get a fair few regens with Carribbean or African second nationality. But it happens elsewhere, too - Ive currently got an Austrian/Danish regen I've signed from Sturm Graz in one of my games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

11Clarkie11 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 No but had an English lad turn up in my Real Madrid squad, didn't have spanish nationality, but already lived there for 734 days when he joined as a 16-year-old.

Garion Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I have seen a Peruvian/Japanese World Class left back regen named "Park Rui". He aquired Spanish nationality along the way while playing for Arsene Weneger's Valencia. He came through at a Peruvian club, but plays for Japan. I should add to that in the same save there was a decent English/Hong Kong left winger, who managed to become an England international. His name was "Leun Ting Leung" and he came through at Middlesbrough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it happens elsewhere, too - Ive currently got an Austrian/Danish regen I've signed from Sturm Graz in one of my games.Is his surname "Laudrup", by any chance? I like it, as it adds a sense of realism to the game. Nice to see as well that it's not completely robotic when it comes to appearance, birthplace and so on. For instance, Liu Jian who I mentioned in my previous post is Scottish/Chinese, and was born in Lockerbie. Another regen whose nationalities were English/Hong Kong was born in Hong Kong, even though "English" was listed as his first nationality. I dunno about you, but seeing that gives me the impression that while he was born in Hong Kong he's lived in England for so long that he considers himself to be English, or something of that nature Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgeeD Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm playing a game in Turkey atm and there are plenty of Turkish/German, Turkish/Dutch and turkish/swedish regens, which is true to life. There's also a Turkish/serbian player. No really strange combinations yet but on an FM08 game I got an Italian/Botswanan regen who came through my youth system at Blsany, a Czech club! He was rubbish though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rochemback_Boro Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Does anyone have a problem with dual nationality regens when they get called up for the national team? For example i am managing Newcastle and Kazenga Lua Lua is down as having Congo nationality but he plays for England U21's. The problem is on his profile it still states he is capped at U21 level next to his nationality of Congo. I would think that should change to England once he has chosen to play for them? Otherwise it looks like he has played U21's for Congo unless you look more in depth at his stats..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've seen quite a few, none from England however, where I play. In Germany there are many in my save. Just look for some with Turkish or Italian names. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've got a Latvian born regen who came through at Middlesbrough, was only eligible for England despite not being able to speak English!

As Portuguese I´ve seen that happened some times in sub-21, sub-19 and sub-17 Portuguese teams with the sons of portuguese emigrants in France, Switzerland, Germany, etc. As for the question, I´ve seen lots of regens with double nationality. What I don´t understand is because a player that is Brasilian/Portuguese or BR/Italian and has less than 18 yrs can´t be signed by a team in Europe till he has 18 yrs old. After all when they have 18 yrs they would have EU nationality imediately, why not before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
