Revealed! Newcastle United's staggering Football Manager 2022 transfer budget

The anticipation for this year’s Football Manager game ramped up on Tyneside following the takeover of Newcastle United.

Taking charge of a ‘mega-rich’ club may usually feel like cheating on the game, however, you can’t deny that being able to take charge of Newcastle won’t be a fun option this year, especially when you see their starting transfer budget.

On the Football Manager 2022, Newcastle are given a transfer budget of £200m – more than enough to sign wonderkids and world-class stars.

You will also be able to keep 100% of transfer revenue made, meaning that all player sales will add to your transfer war chest.

However, with this money comes high expectations. Fighting a relegation battle will not be enough for you as manager’s are first tasked with securing a mid-table finish, before then needing to be regular challengers for European football from the second season onward.
