If you're unable to sign the player because of work permit, go to the player's Relations tab and add an entry for England under Trained in Nation or add an entry for any English club under Trained at Club.
List of Changes
- Maximize Tactical Familiarity button added on Teams tab- Trained in Nation and Trained at Club now editable on Player relations tab
- Added captain and vice-captain indication on Teams tab
- Freeze Attributes checkbox inconsistency for Players addressed
- Minor bug fixes and tweaks
I'm crossing my fingers though

@CygnusGalactic: IGE doesn't do future transfers, assuming that's what you mean. FMLE doesn't currently do that either. I'm going to explore ways on how to do it, but can't promise anything now.
The only way to do that would be to use the in game editor, which I believe allows you to create transfers.
I have a question regarding the mechanics of the editor. One of my favourite aspects of SI's RTE was the ability to sell players by moving them to other clubs after putting a price I want and when I want. I used it to move young players to other clubs when they wanted a transfer, but they were valued too low for my liking, like PA is 160 and you're only offering me 2.1 million euro despite me being the biggest club in Poland? Give me a break.
So I want to do just that. Arrange a transfer on my terms. However I can't find an option to do so in the editor, only to move a player as if it changed the club already. (I want to cheat, but want to do it semi naturally). Is it implemented? And if not, could it be done in a later iteration of the editor?
Or maybe there is a way to force clubs to accept my offers for players?
@RPGFan: I was able to make FMLE work with the Game Pass Console edition of the game. So that's going to be part of the next feature update.
@Safecomo: It's not currently possible. Something to add in a future update.
When they revert back, they have a green border to indicate as saved but that's after they go back to what they were before editing them.
Video of what's happening
You can see they revert back to previous values without me clicking anything
@igorferreira: I'll definitely make player relations editable in the next feature update. Today's v1.3.0 introduced a LOT of new things and it's more manageable for me to initially add new functionality as read-only.
@mitza8: You're welcome. It must be some kind of record.
@mnogueira: That's not currently possible. It might be when I start mapping out competitions.
@mufafitz: Thank you. Competition editing is on my list of future updates. I'm currently working on covering a few more key functions, such as team cohesion and tactical familiarity. But you can probably tell from the first 3 feature updates that I'm serious about making progress. My goal is to roll out 1 feature update each month and I already delivered 3 in less than 3 weeks.
