Hi friends,

we will soon be entering the 20th season in soccer and it's time to get ready for it. It is also time for some national team tournaments such as the PPM Football Challenge Cup or the U20 and U17 World Cup. Follow all the matches live for free!

As you might know, the competition in some countries is quite small and the game for those few managers that remain in these leagues is not that interesting. That's why we have decided to merge some national leagues back to continental leagues. This should help not only managers in these countries, but also those in the continental leagues. Here is the list of leagues that will be merged:

• Australia will be merged with Oceania
• Chinese Taipei, India, Indonesia, Japan and Malaysia will be merged with Asia
• Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Norway and Scotland will be merged with Europe
• Paraguay will be merged with South America

The way this is going to work is that the teams in the continental leagues will remain in the leagues where they are (or where they were promoted/relegated) and the teams from the other countries will fill the available empty slots occupied by inactive teams. It may happen that you will be moved to a lower league than where you are at the moment, but your game experience should improve and if you are strong enough you shouldn't have a problem to promote back to the level where you used to be.

These changes will not affect the national teams. So you don't have to worry that these national teams will be cancelled as well.

There will also be regular league regrouping in the selected countries in order to remove inactive teams from the bottom two tiers of these countries and make the game more competitive. Here is the list of countries that we have selected this season:

Africa, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Canada, Chile, China, Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, North America, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, Uruguay, USA

Remember, if you happen to be moved to a different league during league regrouping and you have chosen a sponsor offer with performance bonuses, there is no need to worry. You will get a chance to switch to a regular sponsor offer or change your target position for bonuses during the first 2 days of the new season.

Good luck in the new season!
