Help Basque Players

[danieljp]

I'm really interested in starting up a career with Athletic Club / Bilbao, I never knew that their Basque player restrictions stood on FMM and I think it'll be a really cool and challenging save. 

My question is, is there a way to search for specifically just Basque players? I realise that turning on interested in the player search helps, but it's not definitive, for example it doesn't feature Griezmann, and a few years into the career it may not feature regen players at bigger clubs than mine. 

Thanks ??

No, that's why I stopped with my save.

I think the only way to know who the Basque players in the game are is to just google it. There's a list here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Basque_footballers that you can work from (Some names on there are retired players, so be careful) I'm sure there's more websites with a list of more Basque players.

With Bilbao, it encourages you to promote players from the youth team to the first team.

Thanks for the link, that's much appreciated! But yeah, I do think it's only really needed for the first few seasons, and then I'll be focusing on youth players a lot. Still hopeful of landing Griezmann after a season or 2 though ??

A basque player search would be useful on future additions on the game to make Bilbao saves easier. Good luck with your career!

Sorry for my ignorance but what do you mean by Basque players

Basque is a region in Spain, like Catalonia. Athletic Bilbao only sign players who are from that region of Spain. It would be a bit like Chelsea only buying players from the London area to keep players local.

Aww sounds interesting

Is it possible to add, in a future update, the option to search Basque nationality, as we can do with others?

I've logged it as a feature request.

Reminder that the best place for suggestions is the wish-list thread: https://community.sigames.com/topic/316258-semi-official-fmm-wish-list/

We go through it every year to read all the suggestions, however we might miss things on vibe.

Thanks for everyone's input, a search feature would be awesome in the future but for now I'll just make do with my own research and the link provided ? iScout isn't an option for me on iPhone unfortunately.
