Football Manager 2020

Football Manager 2020 puts you in charge of a football club, with decisions shaping its direction and your career. You set the club’s identity, plan for the future, develop players and staff, and take responsibility for the consequences of your choices. There is no scripted ending: each club has its own story, and you decide how it unfolds.

You can manage at 2,500 clubs across 50 of the world’s biggest footballing countries. Scout more than 500,000 real players and staff, shape a tactical vision and put it into practice on the training pitch, then follow matches in the game’s match engine.

Develop your squad

The Development Centre gives you oversight of youth-team operations. You can nurture young players from their arrival at the club through the youth ranks until they are ready for the first team. Playing Time Pathway lets you define a player’s current and future role over the course of their contract, from Fringe Player to Star Player and the roles between them.

Shape the club

Club Vision lets you develop a club culture, work with the board on ongoing objectives and plan progress over future seasons. Its expectations affect transfers, playing style and competitions, as you work towards multi-year milestones and strengthen the club’s identity.

Work with your staff

New roles, advice and interactions give your backroom staff a greater part in running the club. Increased collaboration across more areas reflects the structure of a real-life backroom team.

Match presentation

Redesigned player and manager models, improved lighting and overhauled pitch visuals accompany the match engine.
