Start of Save

I have loaded up  number of leagues within Europe and South America with a small database and no additional add-ons

Meet our 32 year old Chilean manager Rafael Valdivia. My transfer policy for this career is that for every non-Spanish player I bring in, I must bring in a Spanish player as well, this will makes sure that at least 50% of our squad will be Spanish. I will also be looking to bring in as many academy players into the first team as possible.

Pre-Season Update

Alright pre-season, would of loved to be beat Bolton but we couldn't. Now onto signings.

Only players who wouldn't have played leaving and B teamers going out on loan.

Carles Planas and Dennis Aogo provide a starter and backup at Left Back aswell as Javier Eraso who will be a backup (or possibly starter) central midfielder, all 3 very good deals. Also managed to die down Ignacio Camacho down to a new contract, with a 50 million euro release clause, amidst interest from Juventus.
