Another quick message to say we’ve released a hotfix today to address the issues listed below. As with previously the hotfix is save game compatible.

We’d recommend exiting Football Manager, then restarting Steam to make sure the download and installation occurs.

Again we want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has raised any issue, left us any feedback or left us any kind of review. We really appreciate all contributions from our community and with your help we continue to try and make Football Manager the best possible game it can be,

Changes include but are not limited to:
