Miles Jacobson, director of Sports Interactive and the team that has always developed our beloved management game, said that before the launch of each new edition, the company has received strange proposals from prosecutors in the world of football.
In fact, during an interview with the sports website The Athletic, he revealed that over the years he has received several attempts to bribe some football players’ agents in the game. All in order to receive better ratings and statistics within the FM database.
As all fans of the game will know, the database and the way in which data is collected has always been one of the game’s strong points, given that thousands of willing fans dedicate themselves to compiling it every year.
Their work in scouting and evaluating the qualities of the players present in FM is one of the main features that have made the game so real and exciting. This work is done so well that, as we wrote in a previous post, even the sporting directors of top European clubs have started playing FM in an attempt to find new young talent.
