FM26 – Complete Argentine & South American Transfer Update

1,562 2 148

This mod was born out of a concrete need: there was no patch that fully and realistically updated the Argentine transfer market, at least down to the third division, without limiting itself only to the big clubs (Boca, River, Racing, etc.).

Most available patches provide incomplete information, with partial transfers or focusing only on high-visibility teams. For that reason, I decided to create and maintain this file, aiming to reflect the reality of Argentine football club by club, while also extending it to the South American context.

--- Important Note If used alongside files that update data (e.g., SortitoutSI, FMTU, etc.), avoid using any file that updates Transfers. All other files that don’t touch or modify transfers are 100% compatible with this mod.

Database & Methodology The starting point was a base file that included: - Transfer market updated approximately until January 1st.

From there, the work was manual and exhaustive, relying on multiple sources: - Personal information and daily monitoring - Sports apps - Specialized websites - Official and unofficial social media

Every single move was added with the highest level of realism possible.

What Does This Patch Update?

The mod updates the Argentine and South American transfer market, with a primary focus on Argentina:

- Argentina (absolute priority)

- All Argentine clubs

- Confirmed transfers in and out

- Loans and temporary deals

- Transfer fees

- Contract durations

- Additional clauses and contractual conditions

- Relevant moves in South American leagues

- Realistic updates for clubs with international participation

Dates, Leagues & Important Warning

This patch is specifically adapted to the Argentine football calendar within FM26, where:

- Pre-season begins in December 2024.

For this reason:

⚠️ It is recommended to use this patch for saves in South America.

It can be used in European saves, but it may cause unintended effects such as:

- Early termination of contracts expiring in June 2025.

- Loans ending in December 2025 appearing misaligned.

This is not an error in the mod, but a consequence of adapting contracts and dates to the logic of Argentine football.

Current Project Status

Progress will be detailed in each new version I release.

LPF – 100% Updated squads for all 30 teams as of 12/01/2026
Rest of South America and Europe up to 01/01/2026

📌 Maintenance

Once the database is fully up to date, the patch will continue to be updated as new transfers occur.

Not necessarily every single day, but at least every other day while the transfer window is open.
