How to get a son in Football Manager

How long into your game do you have to be before this happens? I have been trying this for about 8 hours now and still no sign of the brat. My manager is 39, has been at the same club since the start of my game and approaching the end of my 8th season.

Hope this helps.

Buy a player and have him retire while having a testamonial (10 years at the club). He must play at least one game a season.

Am trying this myself so good luck

That's really really cool!

Does this only happen in the FMC mode? I always plays on the normal full football manager does it happen there as well?

Thanks and good work

My game still doesn't want to produce a child for me. Every youth intake season I have come to over the past few weeks I have spent hours loading and reloading in hope the child will appear, but still no luck. I did get a few players while I was manager of Kilmarnock come through with not only my surname, but the name of my brother and nephew, but none as my son in the game. Due to being born in Germany, and FM14 allowing you to enter the place of your birth, my nationality in the game is German, so I am currently in my third season as FC Bayern manager, on my 16th season in game and still the brat

While it is frustrating and I feel that this never is going to happen to me, I am obsessed with trying to get my spawn appearing in the game. I know it is programmed to be rare, but given how often managers and players children do enter the game in real life, the odds of your own child in game should not be as high as they currently are.

It finally happened. Such a relief that my spawn has appeared.
