Tomp1987 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Just been browsing the ukraine league and shakhtar start with a massive 40mill starting budget is that realistic, are they that rich in real life? And is there any more teams like that with a massive starting budget thats not in the top leagues of europe england, france, spain and italy excluding them teams.

Butts Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah Shakhtar are loaded irl I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaman Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 well QPR is in england but not in a top league and they have rich owners IRL so they might have a nice amount to start but im not 100% sure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah Shakhtar are loaded irl I think. Not 100% certain but I think that Chelsea's Roman Abramovich has something to do with them as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergey S. Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Yeah, Shakhtar are that rich IRL. Unfortinately for them the very best players don't really want to come to Ukraine, or stay there for long, so the relatevely much financially poorer Dynamo Kiev is able to stay competitive with them for the Ukrainian title. Still, it was enough to win the UEFA Cup irl, wasn't it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Shakhtar also get a huge sponsership deal so every season you get £40 million along with the champions league money you can get big transfer budgets. Its a fun game to play but there are foreign player limitations which are a bit annoying. Its also easier in the game to attract quality players than Shakhtar do in real life.

erik86 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Shaktar are loaded and have a lot of Brazilians, in the past few seasons they have had Srna, Elano, Fernadinho to name a few.. Didnt they win the UEFA Cup too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rougess Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Shakhtar have so many Brazilians because they're easier to convince them into joining a Ukrainian league as opposed to someone already playing in Europe. Brazilians probably see it as a way into the bigger leagues of Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
