Recently started a save with Manchester United and noticed that a number of the newly created wonderkids have a wrong ethnicity in the match engine. Chido Obi for one was white with blondish hair for me and i think Jorthy Mokio was wrong as well. I think because you do not specify in the new files their ethnicity and because Chido is from Denmark with no Nigerian second nationality despite his parents, and Mokio is Belgian, the game generates them incorrectly. Is there any chance of having this changed and making sure the newly created players have the correct appearance in the match engine? Its not a crazy error but pretty annoying for immersion haha. I think there were a few others wrong as well in my save but I can't remember now. This is also only my first save with the update so I am sure there will be loads wrong that I haven't bought or seen yet.

Around a week ago the submission system was updated to allow for ethnicity, and these are being worked on gradually for any player added in before the feature was added to the update. I will have a chance later today to check the players mentioned. Naturally, a new save is needed to benefit from updates to ethnicity. It will take a few weeks for the community to double back and sort ethnicity for players who went in before the feature went live, but many have been fixed. 

 

If you start a new save with the latest update and spot any other ethnicity issues then let us know. Thanks

Both have been fixed by other contributors, the Ajax player should be correct with the most recent update, Obi too but with additional fixes in what will be tomorrow's update.
