Football Manager 2023 will be here before we know it, with Sports Interactive once again set to deliver the best management simulator on the market.
With the summer Transfer Window in full swing, we want to take a look at five real-world transfers that will majorly change the landscape in FM23.
Be advised, some major wonderkids have already been snatched off the market,
Erling Haaland
The biggest move of the summer so far - and maybe the most exciting deal that crops up for the entire window - it's obvious to state that Erling Haaland arriving in the Premier League spells trouble for FM players.
With the Norweigan international reaching new heights of insane in FM22, we're slightly concerned for our defenders in the brand new game.
A powerful striker with the world at his feet, this transfer may get you thinking twice before starting your new save in the Premier League.
Darwin Nunez
Another Football Manager wonderkid on the move this summer is Benfica's Darwin Nunez, with the Uruguayan quickly sealing a move to Liverpool.
With both Nunez and Haaland terrorising your defenders in Football Manager 2023, your tactical nouse will certainly be tested.
Certain to bring a different dimension to Klopp's reds, FM fans can breathe a sigh of relief to see serial pest Sadio Mane leave Anfield.
With Nunez arriving with plenty of pressure on his back, with the young wonder be able to live up to expectations?
Karim Adeyemi
A Football Manager gem moving to Borussia Dortmund? We've certainly seen this happen a few times before.
Adeyemi - a German sensation - has moved to Dortmund from RB Salzburg, replacing the aforementioned Haaland.
A brilliant striker who will now get the chance to showcase his skills on the world stage, we could be looking at yet another FM wonderkid that could move onto stardom.
With Adeyemi turning out for Dortmund in Football Manager 2023, a save with the German powerhouses could certainly be on the cards.
Brenden Aaronson
With Jesse Marsch at the helm, it's no surprise that Leeds have been dipping their feet into the American talent pool.
Brenden Aaronson was a top young talent in last year's game, and you can be sure that he'll receive a stats boost in Football Manager 2023.
With the USA becoming a great breeding ground for wonderkids in Football Manager 2022, Leeds may be about to become a great place to start your journey in FM23.
With other FM stars like Tyler Adams also linked to Elland Road, could you take the reins at the mighty Leeds and guide them back into European football?
Diego Carlos
If you took over Aston Villa in FM22, we can almost guarantee that your first move was signing a centre-back.
Thankfully, Villa have acted fast in real-life to save you the hassle in Football Manager 2023.
A powerful defender who has his own impressive FM history, Diego Carlos is certain to make Villa a mouth-watering managerial prospect in this year's game.
One thing's for certain, another busy summer transfer window will no doubt lead to some brand new sides emerging as everyone's favourite place to start their new save.
