scholes=legend Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I seen a thread on this last year with a few mad takeovers of former players to all different level clubs. I'm currently in a one club career save with Juve and at the start of this season Buffon decided to retire but January has come about and he is the new Chairman of A.C. Milan! I was shocked when i seen this and just wondered if anyone else has seen or had a takeover by a former player? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Furia Roja Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 i had Robbie Fowler take over leeds united in FM10, i know he is a former player etc so it is unlike yours but still good to see Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlo116 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I had Javier Zanetti take over Sydney FC on FM 10. I thought it was a bit of an odd decision, unless an A-League club was the best he could afford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww-fc-4-life Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 On my wolves save I had edwin van der saar take over wolves in 2012-2013, he was going to replace me with dennis wise, lol, but hes kept faith with me so far, hopefully he'll invest in the stadium and facilities more aswell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuz Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I had Javier Zanetti take over Sydney FC on FM 10. I thought it was a bit of an odd decision, unless an A-League club was the best he could afford. Interesting. In my Melbourne Victory save he took over the club at around the same time! Seems he has a thing for the A-League... More bizarrely, Gianluigi Buffon is currently the chairman of my struggling Croatian Second Division side!

milnerpoint Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 In FM10 i had Figo as the Inter chairman, and Raul as the Real Chairman who were also playing at the Cristiano Ronaldo Stadium. Juve also named their new stadium Buffon Park which i thought was a brilliant name! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
