I came across some serious bug while progressing with my san Marino challenge.
Italy has some tough limitations about non-EU players: Serie A clubs can sign only two non-EU from abroad per season; Serie B clubs can only sign non-EU already playing in Italy; Serie C1 and C2 are simply not allowed any non-EU.
These rules were all implemented in previous games, and all seemed to work fine in FM12 as well. Unfortunately there's a bug occurring (at least in serie C2 and serie C1) the moment you secure promotion to the next division: then you are allowed to sign an unlimited number of non-EU players (both immediate free transfers or finalizing contracts for next year) until "official" start of new season (june 30th) when things go back to normality and non-EU rules are in place.
First year I thought it might be a new rule I wasn't aware of, so fully took advantage of it. Then I realised it was a massive bug and just limited myself the next year
has this happened to anyone else? Anybody knows if this will still happen when you gain promotion from serie B? Or in serie A years? I'm on 12.0.2 has this been corrected in new updates?
thanks
