In general, we’re working towards making the ‘No Date’ concept the standard. But to do this properly also requires real-life start dates for all divisions. It will take some time. You can see the plan outlined here: https://sortitoutsi.net/content/76916/202627-league-updates-fm24-fm26. In my opinion, the ‘longer-term’ plan (which I describe in that thread) is the overall, perfect solution for this general scenario.

 

@ah!lan - I’m not sure what you mean when you say it is ‘relatively straightforward to build a proper 2026/27 database to any league’. If you’re referring to rolling the start date forward, then whilst ‘straightforward’ on the surface of it, it is still a lot of work which is why it’ll take a bit of time.

 

In general terms, I understand all of your perspectives. I know it causes issues especially in those nations that have seasons run across a single year (e.g. Brazil) and it is an imperfect solution overall. However doing this offset makes a lot of sense in the context of most of the footballing world - and it’s the exact same principle as was applied to FM24 - whilst we are constrained by an in-game start date (in FM26) that is now a year ago. If we didn't do this offset, the reverse complaint would exist which is that even though it's now the start of the 2026/27 season, contract lengths in-game don't reflect that.

 

All the same, tagging @Footygamer just so he is aware of the discussion and can review the feedback.

 

Thanks for your help. i really appreciate it.

This doesn't even make sense, because even starting in 2025 everything goes wrong and the players' contracts end prematurely. In my case, I play a lot in Brazil and here there are several short contracts of 3 to 6 months, and none of these contracts even come into effect because of this configuration.
 

It's very bad, I don't see it making sense in any context.
 

Who in their right mind wants to go back in time to play FM? And if you do want to go back, it's better to have an extra year of contract than to play on the correct date and have one less year of contract, completely ruining the immersion of the save.

 

Do you know if we'll get the “No Date” version for FM26 without affecting the loan deals?

 

It would be to always start in 2025 while pretending it's 2026 with a World Cup constantly just around the corner.

 

For FM24 I could understand the “+1” or “+2 years contracts” offsets since the game was already 2 years behind real life.

For FM26 it doesn't seem to make much sense considering it's relatively straightforward to build a proper 2026/27 Database to any League.

@Footygamer Any idea why this happens? I'm having the same problem. Or is it intentional?

@ah!lan 

The photo you posted was when he was still wearing the Vila Nova FC uniform, now as of January 2026 he has moved to Persija Jakarta, and I posted his official Persija photo

I don't disagree with that. But what a terrible pic.

 

This last one is ok.

I wanted to report a possible error.
I submitted some player updates from the Brazilian subdivisions, and when I select the file, it hasn’t updated. The latest update was probably released around the 5th, from what I saw yesterday.

 

One example is the player Yamada, who was supposed to be at EC Taubaté in the Data Update, but he isn’t.

You provided an image. The correct way to do so is via the upload image button, and not within a comment, since the comment will not show in the request list.

 

Okay, I get your point. But this wasn't a submission, I was just showing the real Marquinhos for correction purposes. But I appreciate your help.

Wrong Marquinhos.

This is Marcos Antônio da Silva Gonçalves

 

This is the correct one. Not a good quality but there is no much information about him.
