FC NORDSJAELLAND - THE RIGHT TO DREAM!!!!
So my new save is here and this one I am very confident that it will last a fair few seasons! I have decided to manage in Denmark which I have never done before and I have picked a really unique team to manage.........
FC NORDSJAELLAND
I will give a rundown of the history below but FC Nordsjaelland play in the top tier of Danish football but have a unique background as they are/were part of the Right to Dream Academy which started off with an academy in Ghana before they bought over FC Nordsjaelland. They without a doubt have the youngest squad in Europe - maybe even in the world - as they are all about giving young players a chance to earn a football career or develop themselves in other fields.
I will be taking over this side as I feel this club fits my brief. A unique club, focused on developing young players, very little history and basically and this phrased will be used a lot in this save - have a right to dream! The aim of the save is to continually develop young players, develop the club to dominate not only Denmark but also in Europe.
Not only that but I am going to install a transfer strategy/rule for myself.......................

THE CLUB
From the North Zealand town of Farum, FC Nordsjaelland came into being originally in 1991 when the towns 2 biggest clubs, Farum IK and Stavnsholt BK merged and then in 2003 they changed their name to FC Nordsjaelland. They have won 1 Danish Superliga title and 2 Danish Cups and that is it! They have played in Europe just 8 times since becoming FC Nordsjaelland but did feature in the Champions League group stages in 2012-13 where they met Chelsea, Juventus and Shakhtar Donetsk with their only point coming against Juventus at home.
They have affiliations with 71 local clubs in the North Zealand area (not all in the game) and also have a link up naturally with the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana plus Manchester City can send loan players to the club which is ironic considering the Right to Dream founder - Tom Vernon - used to be a scout for Man Utd!
As an aside the Right to Dream academy was bought over this year by an Egyptian based group for roughly £90m but they have no interest in this game via ownership or investing money etc.

THE YOUNGEST SQUAD IN THE WORLD???????
So you may think I will have a squad with one or two over 30s, a few in their mid 20s and several teenagers? WRONG! One 32y/o, 5 aged 22-23, 3 aged 20-21 and 16 - SIXTEEN - teenagers!!!!!!!!!!!! Unbelievable!!!!!!

MY TRANSFER STRATEGY/RULE
Now to keep the integrity of having such a young squad I am going to limit myself to signing only 1 player aged 22 or above and all the rest have to be 21 or less. I can keep them for as long as I like but I am going to stick with only bringing in young players!!!!!
