For starters, dynamic market values and Head-to-head mode are back and improved. The Daily Bonus, meanwhile, is a totally new feature, just like the ability to undo transfers before the start of the next matchday's first game.

Get to grips with the new features now so that you can hit the ground running once the season starts.

The return of dynamic market values

A common wish among many managers was for the return of dynamic market values. We listened and have delivered for 2025/26. Not only are they back, but the criteria rewards performances on the pitch better than ever before.

The market values of players will be updated every time the transfer window opens, meaning you can make clever transfers to maximise your budget each week.

New feature: the Daily Bonus - boost your transfer budget every day!

The Daily Bonus will reward active managers in 2025/26 like never before: from Matchday 1, you can add to your transfer budget every day. The bonus will increase daily across a seven-day period upon each daily login - earning up to 500k extra each week - after which point the bonus will reset and you can start another chain.

But watch out: should you miss a day, your bonus will return to zero, and you will need to start your chain all over again.

New feature: Undoing transfers

This season you will be able to take back transfers you have already made before the start of the next matchday's first game. This will allow you to quickly react to unforeseen circumstances such as injuries, or even take advantage of a bargain you previously missed.

Be careful, though: if you undo a transfer, you may need to rework your starting XI or reselect your star players. The feature is only relevant outside of international breaks or the winter hiatus, during which transfers are unlimited anyway.

The return of the popular Head-to-Head mode - with league phase and knockouts

The Head-to-Head mode, including league phase and knockout round options, is making its comeback! In the league phase, each manager will face the rest of their opponents once.

Meanwhile, in the knockout mode, managers will meet in a one-off tie - or a two-legged affair, depending on what is chosen - with only the winner progressing. The final will always be a single game and will take place on Matchday 34; you are free to choose how many knockout rounds you wish to play - which does depend on the length of the league phase - the matchday you wish to start from and the maximum number of managers you want to take part. Any unfilfilled spots will become byes.

Automatically-filled team, and a bigger budget for late-comers

When you register for this season's game, you will automatically receive a random squad with a market value of 150 million. You will be able to make as many transfers as you like until the start of the first matchday.

Managers who enter the game after the first matchday will also receive a random squad which will have an overall adjusted value based on the market values ​​of the squads already in the game. Those managers will also have the possibility to make as many transfers as possible until the start of their first matchday in the game.
