Nobody playing in the Bundesliga in FM22?
I have a nice RB Leipzig save going. Love it!
Sorry for late reply, but could I see your team? I could be interested in picking up the gloves from Julian Nagelsmann in an RB Leipzig save, too :-)

Hi everyone!
Been thinking about doing an AC Milan save after the Winter Update. Anyone had some experiences with them. My main concerns are:
1) Can you get Donnarumma to extend?
2) How are the finances? Do you get some money to play with at transfer windows?

Hi guys!
When do you sign Moukoko - do you sign him at the start of the save or take the chance and wait for his contract to expire?

Has anyone tried this? Esposito is on loan to Spezia in my save and I have not selected Serie B (in which division they play) as an eligible division, so he will play no games until I sign him. Will he get a work permit any way if I sign him? (Contract offer is GBP 79k per month)

Newcastle United 2020/21 (Season 1 - Mid-season):
Turns out we are having a very good season
Certainly over achieving, but most of the new players have settled in nicely, we are 2nd although it's very tight up there but it's basically down to Callum Wilson banging in 26 goals so far!
You can see here how insane Wilson is performing...
We had a really tough January though, a takeover was going through so we were placed under embargo in mid-December, this dragged on until around 20th January when Mike Ashley pulled the plug, leaves us just a week to get some business done. The deal for Matías Arezo was cancelled, not sure if that was because of the transfer embargo, or the new work permit rules that came in on January 1st but it left us short up top.
I made a few sales/loans to raise £16m, just enough to tie up a deal for Brazilian wonderkid Brenner, only for the deal to collapse at the last minute when the board wouldn't allow me to adjust the budget by £500,000. On deadline day, I went in for Victor Fischer but we ran out of time to complete the deal. So a total nightmare January.
I did manage to bring back club legend Les Ferdinand though as Director of Football
Our terrible domestic cup form continued with Mark Hughes’s Bristol City dumping us out with a 94th minute winner, although they should have won more comfortably.
I'm still hoping for a buy out before the summer, so I can see the back of Mike Ashley, although to be fair to him, he's put some money up to upgrade the clubs youth and training facilities, but as it stands they love me...
Hi stevemc
Curious as to how the takeover-situation affects the save. Did you get hefty transfer budgets the following seasons after the takeover? And will this be random from save to save (as to how much money you get to spend)? :-)
Sorry for the ignorance - still new to playing the game.

So, as the title says:
Jean Phillipe Mateta (ST) - goal machine, was league top scorer for Mainz (?) so I had a gander in my rebuild transfer window & got him for £25m. 3 seasons in a row with 30+ league goals (2 seasons with me)
Lirim Kastrati (RW) - 20 pace, I stumbled into playing him as a PF in a 2 with JPM and it’s a partnership. Top tip - set him to lurk outside your box when defending a corner and watch him fly when your CB heads it clear!
Nic Stark (CB) - was already at Hertha, oh captain my captain. Pace, strength, aerial dominance in both boxes.
Altay (GK) Turkish, can’t and won’t try to spell his last name. 6’4”, high reflexes, quick off his line, catches 99.9% of crosses, and has a ridiculous amount of assists from over the top of defence passes to Kastrati.
Kerem Demirbay (AP) signed him in the Jan ‘22 window as Camavinga was at the World Cup and I thought he would need a rest, £15 from Leverkusen who weren’t playing him. Fekir picks up and ankle injury the day KD signs so I slip him into the hole and WOW. 15 league games = 18 assists. Yup. 4 Champions League games = 6 assists. Dead ball and through ball master.
Very keen on starting a Hertha save, mate! What were your budgets for the three (maybe more?) seasons? And did you have any problems with the board intercepting your transfer dispositions?

It wasn't that difficult. First transfer window is crusial as one can pull of some great deals. BMG are generating enough money so I didn't fear to get in debt. For the second season I managed to complete the deals early in June, before the window has opened. That way it's like having a first pick on most players because AI clubs seem less active. Having set my system I knew exactly who I want. Didn't miss anyone, but the striker Darwin Nunes who went for City. Anyway, Patson Daka seems like a good alternative.
Great team, mate!
How did your transfer budgets look for each season? I reckon some of the buys were on instalments?

Have anyone come across some good Scandinavian bargains (or bargains for Scandinavian clubs) after the Winter Update?

Hi guys!
Very keen on doing a Spurs save at the moment. How are the chances of signing Mbappé in the first season - and has anyone had succes in luring Haaland to London (or do you get beat by the likes of Man City, Liverpool etc.?) :-)
