footballer Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Anyone able to help with assigning squad numbers? I'm in the transfer window and can't amend them for existing players, and only for those who have recently joined? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodTheCid Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Did you ever figure out how to update Squad number? I'm also on the English league (Championship) currently in the pre-season and have exactly the same problem, I'm starting to think it's a rule on the English league that is now described in the League details Edited July 17, 2021 by RodTheCid Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 In England, you cannot change the squad number of an existing player except at the start of the season. Players added during the season can have a number allocated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodTheCid Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Thanks @FrazT, that's exactly what I thought, but in my current save I'm on the preseason (July 7th) and still not able to adjust the Squad numbers, Do you remember if there is there any specific dates where changing the squad numbers is allowed? EDIT: just want to add that FM2021 is my first FM game that I ever play, I got it back in Feb and you would think that 5 months would be enough for me to know better, but I'm quite slow when it comes to enjoy a game, let say that I like to savor it Edited July 17, 2021 by RodTheCid Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 The squad numbers date is , from memory, quite late in the pre season, after the players return from holiday and before the full season starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodTheCid Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Thanks @FrazT, this just happened in my save, I got an "e-mail" from my "Personal Assistant" that I have to submit the Squad Numbers and just as an additional guide if anybody comes across this situation on the English leagues; This message came 3 weeks before the first match of the season and once a number is assigned it can not be modified anymore, I guess until the next preseason that is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
