  • Finances broken in Belgium

    Unfortunately, the finances seem to be broken in Belgium. Because there's close to no income, most of the teams are losing so much money that they will go deep in the red. After a few seasons, most of the teams in the three playable leagues are so deep in the red that I don't think they will ever get out of it... Yes, they can sell a player sometimes and get some money back, but they are losing so much money that this helps only a short time.

    I understand that Belgium is a football country where the teams sell player to bigger clubs in better leagues, but the amount of money they are losing in FM23 is way too high (especially for the teams in the lower leagues who can sell any players). With this numbers, every club would file for bankruptcy after 2 years..

    I simulated 3 years into the future. I used the Zealand skin where I can see the finances from every team and attached a few screenshots for you. And I uploaded the save game (Belgium sim - 3 Seasons.fm), so you can look around and check for yourself how big this problem is.

    How can you see the financies of the teams? I can't find it. I see that most teams are insecure but can't see how much dept they have.

    It's possible with some skins, I am using the Zealand skin for these examples.

    OK, found it. I'm only 2 seasons in and the finances doesn't seem to be that bad as in your save for other teams, but to many teams are in dept especially the smaller teams. I'll keep playing and see how it evolves. I will add screenshots  later.

    In the 3 leagues combined we have 50 teams. At the moment 6 of them are youth teams and I haven't add them to the research. 14 teams are not in debt, and 4 of them are teams that just have been promoted of the 4th division. This means that 30 teams out of 40 teams are in debt after just 2 seasons. The debt is going from €16M to €200k. This is completely unrealistic.

    And 2 months later only 3 teams are not in debt. I think it was due to sponsoring that 14 teams were not in debt. I stopped the save as the fun is gone.
