    Description of issue

    See here, on the 20th of March, that projected turnover for the Year is 109 million. 

    We just got into the RO8 of the Champions league.

    Here in the Income tab, you can see that the non-transfer revenue for the club amounts to 102 million this season. The prize money for last season is considered under the last season revenue.

    That means that the projection is completely ignoring the prize money, that is only awarded at the end of the season for the bundesliga, and therefore, for champions league clubs, happens after they secure their champions league spot, which is when the board sets budgets. 

    This has been an issue since FM22. My team is currently safely second, so it's likely that the projection not taking into account prize money will affect me next season.  

    Is this purely a graphical bug, or is this an issue stemming from most of the money from the bundesliga coming at the end of the season, unlike other leagues where most money is from TV rights throughout the season?

    Hello, prize money is not a fixed amount so won't be included on this page. Once the money is confirmed and received, it will positively impact the chance of initial budgets being bumped up.

    The problem is that Budgets are decided BEFORE prize money is taken into account (when you get into the champions league). Since the bundesliga prize money is the lions share of the bundesliga revenue (no TV rights money), it heavily affects them more than anything else. Are you understanding what i'm saying?

    Basically, since budgets are decided BEFORE prize money is recieved, the bundesliga gets disproportionately screwed, especially for teams that are promoted and manage to stay up, since the game doesn't realize you have WAY more money than it thinks when it calculates the transfer budget.
