Football Manager 2020 Touch 20.3.0 January Transfer Update Out Now!

[Neil Brock]

We’re very happy to announce that Update 20.3.0, containing an updated database including all the January transfers has now been released for Football Manager 2020 Touch on Steam and across Android, iOS and Nintendo Switch. Our thousands of researchers around the globe have been scouting and tracking players over the last few months to make sure the most accurate and true to life data is now available.

Alongside this are a number of other changes and improvements in a variety of areas with the aim of making the overall experience of Football Manager 2020 Touch the best it’s ever been. A changelist noting just some of these can be found below.

We’re also pleased to announce that this is the first of two database updates you can expect over the coming weeks. As the February window for some other major nations such as China and Russia has yet to close, we’ll be releasing a February Transfer Update once the data has been finalised.

To gain access to the new data and updated league rules you will be required to start a new game, however the majority of changes and fixes are save game compatible meaning you’re fine to continue any pre-existing save.
