Serie D is the fourth tier of the Italian football league system. It is the highest amateur division and sits below Serie C, the lowest professional division. Serie D is made up of multiple regional groups and is often the entry point for many clubs aiming to rise through the Italian football ranks. The division includes a mix of historic clubs such as Livorno, Reggina (now Reggio Calabria), Piacenza, Sambenedettese, etc., all with large fan bases, and emerging teams aspiring to reach professional status, like Alcione Milano, Union Clodiense, Pianese, and the 'foreign' club Victor San Marino, among others. Promotion from Serie D leads to Serie C, while relegation sends teams down to the even more regionalized fifth tier, known as 'Eccellenza'. Serie D is not just the beating heart of semi-professional Italian football, but also a crucible of undiscovered talents. This mod offers you the opportunity to unearth and nurture young prospects, plan your market strategy, and face the unique management challenges that only lower leagues can offer.

This file enables the Italian fourth division in the game and is compatible with the latest two game patches (24.3 and 24.4). This Megapack introduces the real rules of the division (including playoffs and relegations). We have implemented the real rules for age limits: it is required to field 4 young players.
All players have been carefully reviewed and updated based on their performance for the 23/24 season. We have also included some awards, such as the Serie D Ballon d'Or, Young Player of the Year, Manager of the Year, etc.

An essential file for maintaining well-balanced finances in the lower leagues. Additional sponsors and previously unrecorded revenues have been added to some Serie C clubs.

SERIE D 3.0
The file that unlocks and makes Serie D playable:

- Serie D consists of 9 groups.
- Serie D playoffs (as in reality, do not allow for promotion to Serie C, but are only used for possible re-admissions, which are impossible to replicate in Football Manager. However, we have included the playoffs to adhere as closely as possible to reality and to exploit greater income for the participating clubs).

- Corrected transfer windows for amateurs and professionals.

VALUTAZIONE GIOVANI 1.6 (YOUTH RATING)
This file for FM24 slightly alters, through more precise calibration, the production of young talents born around the world, in all the various nations of the game. For instance, Argentina will now be one of the most important talent factories almost on par with Brazil and France, with a slight improvement also in the quality of players born in Morocco, Central Africa, and many other nations scattered across the globe that were otherwise excessively overlooked. For proper balancing of the game's delicate mechanics, other nations, on the contrary, will now have more difficulty producing international-level players.
