Ideas for an interesting club to manage?

[Hugobossman]

Hi all I'm fairly new to FM and wanted to know from you guys what would be an interesting club to take on? Thanks in advance

Do you have a national preference?

Sassuolo - A number of decent youngsters with good money to spend with a fairly small club.

Brighton - start with a decent budget and fairly good team. Good potential to take a step up.

Wrexham - if you want to come up the leagues they're a long way down but should have more to spend than those around them for a while with owners happy to spend.

I'm English so a club in the country would be ideal as I'd know more about them but I'm open for anything tbh. Thanks for the suggestions

Whenever I'm struggling to pick a club I start a save unemployed, go on holiday until mid November and let it run, then see which clubs are looking or may soon be looking for a manager.

This also sets up interesting scenarios, like avoiding relegation, there's the January transfer window round the corner so it's a good time to take over and do some restructuring.

Currently managing Sheffield Utd after doing this, found them manager-less in the Championship relegation zone, decent club with bags of potential, lots of overpaid players so you can easily offload some and then use the funds plus excess wage budget to boost the transfer kitty and have a proper rebuild in the new year.

I'm currently playing as Notts County. They have history but are currently way down the ranks. Also I'm a Juventus fan and we are tied to Notts County forever. It's fun trying to get them back to the premier league but it is a challenge.

I like to take basque club where you can buy only basque players like atheltic Bilbao. Harder if you choice small clubs like Gernika.

Interesting I've heard of that rule. Sounds cool

If promotion is something you would be interested in try Sunderland, apparently they have some good young prospects this season. It all depends on your preference of club. The easiest advice I can give you is to play a club you either support or know the most about.

Either way, welcome to the community. Good luck and I hope you enjoy the game.

You could try to take a lower league club from your hometown or something that you can get invested in over some years and has room to grow.

I currently have a play through with Northampton Town. Starts low but with potential to go further.
