A transfer ban imposed on all clubs in the world

With this file, all clubs in the world are prohibited from doing any kind of transfer activities in or out starting from 01/01/2019 until 31/03/2020. This is to ensure that all the current real life transfers that had been done until the date this file is uploaded remains unchanged, so basically no winter transfer window of 2020 (if you tick “Disable First Window Transfer Activity” option when starting a new game).

Notes : -
  • To ensure you have all the latest real life transfers in the game, I recommend to download any of the latest data updates custom files that are shared by the community on the internet which is completely compatible with this file
  • (I personally use and recommend the excellent and comprehensive FM20 Transfer Update that was made and shared by pr0 & his friends and plus, the data are update and available to download daily or the one from sortitoutsi)
  • From my experience, if a club has a transfer ban, not only no transfer activities are allowed, but also no scouting can be done either
  • So if you want to use this file but you don’t want your club to have a transfer ban, simply load this file in the pre-game editor and remove the ban from your club before starting a new game
Enjoy the custom files and your feedbacks are much appreciated

1. Download the file and extract the compressed file
2. Move all the .fmf files to the editor data folder
By default : C:\Users\user\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\editor data

I've included the instructions in the ReadMe text file.

Damn, this sounded great until the no scouting thing. It wouldn't feel fair if I removed the ban on my club and was able to scout but the AI wasn't.

Ive just got to 1st July 2020 and I'm not able to sign anyone. No free transfers and my board didn't give me any budget..

Yeah I added the edit file of the sites custom start date of the last batch of fixtures in real life too (February whenever it was).

Shame it hasn’t worked. Looks like I’ll have to start a new save

SI have been made aware of the issues in and around transfer bans/custom start dates for years I have given up reporting them now there is no point

On my save

custom start date was early June 2020 and only transfers that completed were already future transfers in my save game...

I thought the issue was due to selecting (disable transfer activity in first transfer window) causing no transfers in the first available window?

Any transfers in the Jan 2021 window on your saves as I didn't get that far???
