Been searching high and low for a way to set defensive midfielder as a preferred position for newgens (playing FM'20 fwiw).  This thread is the nearest I've come to it and my question is the same as ACP above.  Can defensive midfielder be set as a preferred position?  The tests I've run imply not (tried Defensive_Midfielder & Defensive_Midfielder_Central - italics due to underscores >< ) but was hoping there might be a non-indictive ID used seeing as defensive midfield - along with wing backs - can appear as newgens preferred positions.

Not as important for me but is it the same for wingbacks?  Again my tests (Defensive_Midfielder_Right/Left, Wingback_Right/Left and Wing-Back_Right/Left) suggest they can't be.

I have tested and successfully generates defensive midfields and wing backs using the following in the preferred position text:

Defensive Midfield - DEFENDER_MIDFIELDER_CENTRAL

Right Wing Back - DEFENDER_MIDFIELDER_RIGHT_SIDE

Left Wing Back - DEFENDER_MIDFIELDER_LEFT_SIDE

Hope this one helps.
