From need to shortlist

Plan realistic recruitment in FM26.

Connect tactical needs to candidates in the current save, compare exact finalists and test squad moves without hiding missing price or wage information.

Keep the recruitment trail visible.

Task-level tools can identify weak slots, recruit for both roles in a tactic position, find replacements for an incumbent and compare selected player IDs.

  • Record agent-enquiry or in-game evidence on a local board
  • Keep evidence isolated by career and time-bound by in-game date
  • Model arrivals, departures, optimized XI and depth effects
  • Create an importable player-shortlist .fmf file

Illustrative workflow

Recruit for the role, not the headline.

A practical answer should remain traceable to the loaded snapshot and your stated constraints.

Diagnose

Find the weak slot in the loaded tactic and current squad.

Shortlist

Search both relevant roles with age, ability and finance constraints.

Verify

Compare exact player IDs and add evidence learned in-game.

Model

Test the depth and financial effect of the intended moves.

Unknown means unknown. Missing asking prices, wage demands and sale proceeds are not silently treated as zero.

Plan the window

Make every target explainable.
