FM20: have U23 or reserve in Italy?

[Fettucine_Alfredo]

Hi

I'm playing in Italy and I went up from 4th division. I'm now in Serie A, since 5-6 years. I have U18 and U20, competiting in their leagues, but I don't have U23 or reserve. I wonder if one day I'll have either (or both).

I doubt it now, but I really hope. Is there actual hope?

My facilities are maxed, I have a nearly +200M€ balance. I really need it because in U20, if a player is 19 but turning 20 before next january, he's not available. Meaning, at 19.5 years of age, you either can play with the pros, or have to be loaned out (and I'm not a big fan of loans, I'd rather my youngsters develop in my club)

If it's not going to happen, is there any way to get one with the ingame editor? I don't think so and haven't found any option to do so, but hopefully I missed it

Nobody knows?

Another season is over now, still nothing. I can't ask for anything about that to the board.

Italy doesn't have a reserve league. So there is nothing you can do. Loan them out or sell them. The only exception I know of is Juventus (Zebre) who have a u23 team in Serie C.

Yeah, I was hoping to get a U23 like Juventus. They can go up to Serie B, which is great. Loaning out is the only solution, but they play or not, and they are not in the same facilities as my club. And I've rarely seen players improve on loan, most of the times their potential just drops.
