If you're wondering why lots of players are missing from the Japan leagues such as Gaku Shibasaki, Marcos Junior and Juan Mata it's because Japan is missing around 150 players in FM24 due to licensing reasons.

 

This file will add as many of those players as possible back in.

 

UPDATE 9th November: Fixes made to weights and removing duplicate players that SI have since added.

Vinicius Araujo (FC Imabari) the same. Why all players who are forwards/delanteros you add central defense??? Maybe you add central defense at 80% of that list… 😢

Also, Kashiwa Reysol manager has a fake name (Manoel Vaz Franco). His real name is Nelson Baptista Júnior, but he's known as Nelsinho Baptista.

The coach of Sanfrecce Hiroshima is not Niko Ammann as the game says, it is Michael Skibbe.

Guys… Juan Mata delete his central defense position please 

 

This was already fixed before you posted, the game was auto generating random positions where no rating was set for that position.

 

More fixes coming soon.

If it helps, these were the dupes I found: Shunta Araki, Akinori Ichikawa, Shun Takagi, Yoshihiro Shimoda, Hisatoshi Nishido, Holneiker Mendes Marreiros, Lee Kyung-Soo (duplicate of Ri Kyongsu), Kazuma Yamaguchi, Leon Nozawa, Shinya Nakano, Marcos Júnior, Hidemasa Koda, Yuta Arai.

 

There's also the player height issue as well. As for the coaches, they all have fake names due to licensing issues, I'm not sure if you're planning on having a go at fixing them, or if you're going to keep this a players only fix.

Gamba Osaka: Akinori Ichikawa

 

Ichikawa, who was transferred from Yokohama FC Osaka to Gamba Osaka, will be transferred to Gamba Osaka in August. Even without editing

Sorry for the duplicates this work was originally based off the beta and it seems like they've added some in the 2 weeks since. It's hard to know if they're going to keep drip feeding them in which will keep causing duplicates.

Hi Footygamer, maybe the game add random position if you put 0 in that? and you must put 1 in left back, defense central, etc etc…???

 

Thanks for your work!
