I think it's the youngest they start.
I've seen a few 14 year old players but it is pretty rare.

August
We win the Icelandic Cup.
Our Performances were very good this month.
Unfortunately star striker 'Olli Nygard' suffers a long term injury.
August Fixtures
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 3-0 Njardvik (Icelandic Premier League)
View attachment 393474
A good win marred by injury to star striker Olli Nygard. He will now be missing for up to 4 months with a torn hamstring
.
Ithrottafelag Reykjavikur 0-3 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Premier League)
View attachment 393473
An expected comfortable win for us. All 3 of my fit strikers were on the score-sheet today. Just a shame there was no Olli Nygard to score another goal here.
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 3-0 Fram (Icelandic Cup Finals)*****FINALS*****

A strong performance as we beat Fram 3-0 to claim another Icelandic Cup trophy.
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 4-0 Vikingur O (Icelandic Premier League)

Another very strong performance as we run out 4-0 winners over an overachieving 'Vikingur O'.
Stjarnan 0-1 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Premier League)

We get the win we wanted over Stjarnan, but they made it difficult for us.
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 6-0 Valur (Icelandic Premier League)
View attachment 393469
A brilliant performance here as we hit Valur for 6. Striker 'Ari Anttila' manages to net a hat-trick in the process.
Icelandic Premier League Table
View attachment 393468
We have pretty much confirmed the league title is ours for the 13th time in a row. We just need 1 point in our last 4 fixtures to confirm the league, which I expect we will take in our next fixture.
Player Of The Month
View attachment 393467
'Tor Skippervik' was our best player this month. The striker was on top form this month, just like he's been throughout the majority of the season.
Champions League Group Draw

Chelsea..............Olympique Marseille............Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur.............Sparta Prague
I think it's going to be really tough to get 2nd place this year. Chelsea are obviously a world class side, and I expect Marseille to still be too strong for us. Again we also have Sparta Prague in our group, and of course I expect 6 points against them.
Youth Intake
View attachment 393456
Again it's been a poor youth intake. This was our best of the bunch. Weather he would be good enough to be a backup player in the future, only time will tell but I highly doubt it.

How many points will we win the league by.

I think the reason your youth intakes are so poor is because Iceland has a low youth rating. You should get a feeder club to try to get a player of a different nationality
I do have 'FK Zeljeznicar Sarajevo' (The best team from Bosnia & Herzegovina) as one of my feeder clubs but I haven't had any players from that nation come through the ranks.
I really would like the core of my team to be Icelandic though, but I'll obviously need some better quality Icelanders to do this. My youth recruitment status is only 'above average' and it seems can't improve it.

Another unfortunate long-term injury.

Season Review

We won the quadruple for the 2nd time in a row.
It's now the 4th time in 5 years we have won the quadruple.
Stats
View attachment 392165
'Olli Nygard' was 3rd in the scoring charts with 18 league goals in only 13 league appearances. I'm sure if he wasn't injured for the final 2 months of the season he would have scored at least 25.
'Olli Nygard' also had the best average rating with 8.13 over the league season.
'Tor Skippervik' was top of the assist chart with 18 league assists.
Fair Play Award

Champions League Journey
We won our first group game 3-0 at home to Sparta Prague. Here's how the other 5 group games went.
Olympique Marsielle 1-3 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Champions League Group G)
View attachment 391736
What A Performance!!! I didn't expect to get anything from this game away to the current French Ligue 1 champions. We were brilliant and 'Tor Skippervik' scored what must be a contender for goal of the year.
Chelsea 0-0 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Champions League Group G)
View attachment 391735
A very solid performance as we pick up a surprising point away to Chelsea. We missed a penalty as well, so who knows what might have happened if it wen't in. Still i'm not even disappointed with missing the penalty after claiming a point here.

Sparta Prague 2-2 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Champions League Group G)
View attachment 391733
This was a draw which i'm not happy with. We looked quite shaky in defense and the 2-2 draw was a fair result. We didn't do enough to deserve 3 points. The only positive was 'Olli Nygard' scoring 2 goals in his first game back from being sidelined for nearly 4 months with a hamstring injury.
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 3-0 Olympique Marsielle (Champions League Group H)
View attachment 391731
WOW!! This is possibly my best result on this save so far. After we missed an early penalty I though things would go ****-up. Instead it seemed to fire us up, and we completely dominated the first half and went into the break 3-0 up. In the second half we went a bit more defensive and just held our 3 goal lead.
Champions League Group G Table

Amazing. We managed to win this group & we were unbeaten. This was a group where I though i would only finish 3rd. I would have been delighted to scrape 2nd, but I just couldn't believe how well we performed. I'm so proud of my players.

A very solid performance as we pick up a surprising point away to Chelsea. We missed a penalty as well, so who knows what might have happened if it wen't in. Still i'm not even disappointed with missing the penalty after claiming a point here.

We done it again! We managed to hold Chelsea to another goalless draw. Again we were excellent throughout the whole 90 minutes and fully deserved the point.

View attachment 391733
This was a draw which i'm not happy with. We looked quite shaky in defense and the 2-2 draw was a fair result. We didn't do enough to deserve 3 points. The only positive was 'Olli Nygard' scoring 2 goals in his first game back from being sidelined for nearly 4 months with a hamstring injury.

WOW!! This is possibly my best result on this save so far. After we missed an early penalty I though things would go ****-up. Instead it seemed to fire us up, and we completely dominated the first half and went into the break 3-0 up. In the second half we went a bit more defensive and just held our 3 goal lead.

Amazing. We managed to win this group & we were unbeaten. This was a group where I though i would only finish 3rd. I would have been delighted to scrape 2nd, but I just couldn't believe how well we performed. I'm so proud of my players.

We smash our transfer record and pay ?500k to bring in 18 year old attacking midfielder 'Jorgen Bertilsson' from Swedish side Helsingborg. I firmly believe Bertilsson can become a world class player in the future & i'm very much looking forward to seeing him develop. Our previous transfer record was ?350k.
View attachment 391514
Our 2nd signing is 18 year old central midfielder 'Ludek Horak' who comes in from Sparta Prague for a fee of ?100k. As part of the deal we have agreed to loan him back to Sparta Prague until the end of their season (end of June). He looks like he can become a real quality player and look forward to him joining the team in a few months time.
Transfer Center
View attachment 391512
Not too much to talk about with regards to players leaving the club. The most notable player is 'Magnus Mar Hauksson' joinging Fram on a free. The attacking midfielder was on loan at Stjarnan last season where he scored 18 league goals in 15 league games. I'm surprised they didn't try to sign him. Either way Fram have a good player for free.
What To Expect In The Next Update
We play Scottish giants Rangers in the Champions League 1st Knockout Round. Can we get past them?

Have Iceland made a major international competition yet? Because if so it would really tear your squad apart.
Iceland have made the Euro's twice, but never the World Cup. Fortunately they haven't made it this year otherwise I really would struggle. I'll be missing my Norwegians & Swedes during the Euro's though and that's about 10 players. Also Patrick Knudsen will be playing for Denmark so it still looks like being a difficult month, or 6 weeks depending how far my players countries go.

We had everyone back early in the month which was exactly what we needed.
July Fixtures
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 2-0 Fimleikafelag Hafnarjardar (Icelandic Premier League)

View attachment 389666
Another very good performance especially in attack. Both 'Olli Nygard' & 'Marvin Nunez' managed to score 2 goals. Unfortunately we did gift Fram their 2 goals.

Fram 2-2 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Cup Quarter Finals)
We win 5-4 on penalties.
View attachment 389657
Fram came very close to pulling off a smash & grab win. We dominated pretty much all aspects of the game, but somehow the score-line remained 2-2 after normal time and then extra time. Everyone knows how bad we usually are at penalties, so I did fear the worst. We won the shoot-out and we deserved it. (Even the Fram manager admitted we deserved the win)
CSKA Sofia 0-2 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Champions League 3rd Qualifying Round / First Leg)
View attachment 389651
An easy win over the Bulgarian giants. This tie is pretty much over already.
Icelandic Premier League Table
View attachment 389649
We are 5 points clear of 2nd placed Fram & still have 1 game in hand over them. I can see us running away with it again. I just don't think anyone is going to mount any sort of challenge for the title.
Player Of The Month

Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 4-0 Valur (Icelandic Cup Semi Finals)
View attachment 389233

Knattspyrnufelag Fjallabyggdar 0-5 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Cup Finals)*****FINALS*****
View attachment 389232
I didn't put my strongest side out today against my first division opponents, but we got the job done in style. We dominated the game and won 5-0 and it could have been a lot more. A great way to win the Icelandic Cup.
Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur 6-0 CFR Cluj (Champions League Play-off Round / First Leg)
View attachment 389231
I had expected to beat the Romanian giants but not by such a large margin even though they did have a man sent off late in the first half. We were brilliant today and the 6-0 win means this tie is over before the 2nd leg. 'Tor Skippervik' managed to score a hat-trick.
Stjarnan 1-2 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Premier League)
View attachment 389228
We get the win we wanted over a 'Stjarnan' side who have struggled a bit this season.
CFR Cluj 0-2 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Champions League Play-off Round / Second Leg)
We win 8-0 on aggregate.
View attachment 389226
All the hard work was done in the first leg, and we were able to relax today. We still picked up a good 2-0 win which means we win 8-0 on aggregate.
Vikingur O' 0-4 Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur (Icelandic Premier League)
View attachment 389224
An easy win over 'Vikingur O' who had a man sent off in the first half. Both 'Olli Nygard' & 'Tor Skippervik' managed to score doubles.

Striker 'Tor Skippervik' was our best player this month.
Champions League Group Stage
View attachment 568581 View attachment 568584 View attachment 389218 View attachment 389220
Valencia FC.....................CSKA Moscow.................Knattspyrnufelag Reykjavikur..........Sparta Prague
This is a group I'm happy with. Valencia, who are current Champions League holders should win this group easily. CSKA Moscow will be a tough opponent, but I feel we can beat them & finish 2nd in this group. As usual we also have Sparta Prague in our group who will most likely finish bottom.
Youth Intake
View attachment 387647
This was the best player from our youth intake. Despite only having a 2.5 star potential I feel he can become a good player in the future. I like his 20 determination, and I will have him tutored by someone who also has 20 determination and hopefully we will see him develop well.
Transfer Center
View attachment 389219
We see 2 players leave the club on a permanent basis.
27 year old defender 'Thorri Atlason' leaves to join Italian side 'Udinese' for a fee of ?4.1mil. He was constantly moaning about a lack of first team action so I decided to let him go.
The other player to leave was 17 year old 'Arnar Sverrisson' who joins Scottish giants 'Celtic' for a fee of ?2.5mil. He was a decent youngster, but I didn't see him developing enough to ever break into the first team so I decided to let him leave.
What To Expect In The Next Update
How many points will we win the league by this year?
We have won every league game so far. Can we record a 100% record this season?

I've been quietly following this for ages and I look for updates pretty much every day, your doing well and i'd love to see a post dedicated to details like your finances, co-efficients and things
I've also got a save similar with Bala Town, in 2026 and after never finishing higher than 3rd in a champions league group I've just topped one that consisted of Fc Porto, PSG, and Vitesse built on defense only conceding 3 in 6, I've got Juve in the first knockout

One of the best stories I've ever read, considering the challenge you were presented with. I know the Guernsey Youth story is one of the most well known on this forum, but given the rep of the nation I'd consider your achievements better than that.
One major question, can we have a review of the other teams in the country, their top players? You dominate everything nationally so I wondered what the competition was like.
