I am writing to you as a long-time enthusiast and avid player of Football Manager, with an idea that I believe could bring a significant improvement to the game and offer players a deeper and more immersive experience.
Having played Football Manager since its early days, I have noticed that the game has made remarkable advancements in tactical aspects and player communication, which have greatly enhanced realism. However, over time, I have felt a lack of innovation in other areas of the game.
My vision is to introduce a new dimension to the game by allowing players to choose the role of a sports director or a manager before starting their managerial journey. This innovation would enable players to be involved in all key aspects of running a football club, providing them with greater control and the ability to shape the club's future on multiple levels.
Specifically, I propose the inclusion of the following elements in the game:
1. The ability to renovate or build a stadium, customize its capacity, and improve infrastructure.
2. Decision-making authority on ticket pricing, adjusting prices based on demand and the club's ambitions.
3. Negotiating with new sponsors and managing sponsorship contracts.
4. Developing a youth academy and creating a pathway for talented young players.
5. Enhancing the scouting department and scouting for promising players worldwide.
I believe that these innovations would give players the opportunity to engage more deeply with the world of football management, simulating the responsibilities of a sports director and offering a higher level of club control.
I am prepared to provide further detailed explanations of each of these elements and offer additional ideas to support the implementation of this innovation. I am confident that this upgrade would attract both existing Football Manager players and new enthusiasts who seek a comprehensive experience in club management.
