Reaspora Database for FM26

What if international football was completely unpredictable?

Reaspora Database for Football Manager 2026 rewrites the rules of national team football by swapping every player’s primary nation to a different country they are actually eligible for in real life. No fictional dual nationalities, no invented passports — every change is grounded in genuine eligibility through ancestry, birthplace, residency, or other FIFA-recognized connections. The result is a world where traditional powerhouses are shaken up and football’s global landscape looks nothing like you expect.

The scale of the project is massive. Over 100,000 changes have been applied to the original database, and more than 27,000 players have had at least one nationality altered. Every continent, every confederation, and almost every national team is affected. You’ll see England lose key players to Nigeria or Jamaica, Argentina compete with Italy for a generational talent, and World Cup qualifiers become a glorious mess of surprise call-ups and new rivalries.

Reaspora Database is designed to make the international side of FM26 the most unpredictable, fresh, and entertaining it’s ever been. Build squads from nations you’d never normally manage. Take a minnow to the World Cup thanks to a diaspora superstar. Watch the FIFA World Cup 2026 unfold in a way no one could have scripted — it’s the ultimate sandbox for international football storytelling.

Made for FM26, released in time for the World Cup update. Reaspora Database is built on the final FM26 data and is ready to drop straight into your game. It’s pure fantasy, but rooted in real eligibility, so every change has a logic you can look up and argue about. If you love the “what could have been” debates and crave saves where anything can happen, Reaspora Database is for you.

Over 100k changes. Over 27k players modified. One unforgettable international game mode.

Important notes on the nationality swap criteria:

A player's nation was only changed if they had not made 10 or more appearances for their original senior national team.

They also could not have played 90 minutes or more for that national team in official competitions (World Cup and continental tournaments).

World Cup qualifiers, European Championship qualifiers, and UEFA Nations League matches were treated as friendlies for this count. This was a deliberate choice, as these games are often used to cap-tie players and block future eligibility (for example, Tomori becoming ineligible for Nigeria after playing just a few minutes for England against Malta for Euro Quals.).

All changes are based on the original database numbers from mid-2025. Some real-life eligibilities that emerged by mid-2026 may therefore not be reflected in the file.

A few nationalities may not be 100% accurate due to lack of sources or incomplete information.
