One of the most important factors in football’s popularity is that everyone has an idea. Six out of five people have an opinion of football in their name. As a result, there is a lot of interest in the management part of the business. Since we won’t all be able to get licenses and coach teams, managerial games come to our rescue. The Football Manager franchise has its own unique player base and this continues to evolve. Now we will also see women’s football in games and this development will come in a very homogeneous way.
The official announcement of sega, the game’s distributor, and Sports Interactive,its producer, gave the gospel especially for women’s football fans. Having signed a long-term agreement with women’s football, the company will not implement it as a separate game or a game mode. Directly within your original career will include women’s football leagues and teams. So much so that your managerial career, which began in Cagliari, will at some point go to the Arsenal Women’s Football Team. The same will be true for careers that begin in women’s football.
Although having such a transition in the game seems to reduce realism a little, it should be noted that there is a manager’s license logic within the FM. So if your license is already sufficient to coach a team at the highest level, you will be able to find a team that suits you, regardless of whether you are male or female. Hardcore Watford fan Miles Jacobson, who has been one of fm’s producers for many years, stressed that the aim of this union was to draw attention to women’s football.
“We’re adding women’s football to Football Manager. We know that adding women’s football will cost us millions and the return will be extremely minimal. But that’s not our goal. There’s discrimination against women’s football right now and we want to break it. What we believe in is equality and we want to be part of the solution. That’s why we’re going to put women equally in the men’s football game.” Jacobson made a very accurate point.
Jacobson also said they were not alone in this, and said they had received support from channels such as Sky and the BBC. In this way, she said, the issue of broadcast rights of the women’s league in England was solved. In the long run, it’s Jacobson’s dream to see women more interested in football. Let’s see if women’s football, which will also appear on FM after FIFA and We Are Football, will reach the imagined viewing figures in the near future.
