To reiterate, the geographic reorganization of the UEFA versions will go ahead. I waited plenty of time for feedback and a decision needed to be made so I could advance with some tasks. The main remaining question is which countries will be focused in each version.
The following leagues will be in all UEFA versions.
Code:
FIRST TIER OF TOP 15 RANKED LEAGUES:
England Premier League (1)
Spain Primera División (1)
Germany 1. Bundesliga (1)
Italy Serie A (1)
France Ligue 1 (1)
Netherlands Eredivisie (1)
Portugal Primeira Liga (1)
Belgium Pro League (1)
Scotland Premiership (1)
Austria Bundesliga (1)
Serbia SuperLiga (1)
Turkey Süper Lig (1)
Switzerland Super League (1)
Ukraine Premier League (1)
Czech Republic First League (1)
SECOND TIER OF TOP 5 RANKED LEAGUES:
England Championship (2)
Spain Segunda División (2)
Germany 2. Bundesliga (2)
Italy Serie B (2)
France Ligue 2 (2)
NON UEFA LEAGUES:
Brazil Serie A (1)
Argentina Primera División (1)
Mexico Liga MX (1)
USA Major League Soccer (1)
Japan J1 League (1)
Saudi Arabia Pro League (1)
I am still open to changing the non UEFA leagues, for example, replacing Japan with South Korea.
These additional leagues will be split by country between the UEFA versions.

The following maps show how options for how the additional leagues would be split by country, this is still to be decided.
Map 1
Map 2
Which version is preferred? Based on comments so far, map 2 is preferred. I am also open to alternate arrangements, if they are workable I will make additional maps for discussion. I want this decision to be made soon so certain tasks can be started though.
To also reiterate, the ROW version is expected to remain in the next release. It will split into AFC/CAF and CONMEBOL/CONCACAF versions when it can no longer accommodate all non UEFA leagues. I will discuss these versions in more detail when the split is likely to happen.
In all UEFA versions, UEFA competitions are intended to be in full from the following stages:
UEFA Champions League - 2nd qualifying round.
UEFA Europa League - 2nd qualifying round.
UEFA Conference League - league path from 3rd qualifying round, champions path from play-off round.
I also want to mention a possible future changes for national teams, since extra national teams has been a frequent request. While I do not want to increase the number of national teams in each version, the selection could be different in each version. The core number of UEFA national teams could be reduced from 36 to 26. For the UEFA versions, the extra 10 national teams would then be chosen, prioritising the focused countries in that version. It may be possible to include all UEFA national teams in at least one version. If so, this would give the possibility of managing the national team of the country you are playing in. For the ROW version, the 10 extra national teams would be AFC, CAF and CONCACAF ones. What does everyone think of this? Please also note that if this is wanted, it would be done in a future version, not the next one. At this point, I will only start to make plans.
Personally, I think this version proposition is quite good. With such divisions, will it be possible for the European cup qualifiers to have at least 3 rounds? I also think that if it were possible in terms of the number of added leagues, it might be a good idea to add a 3rd level of TOP5 leagues in each version.
See above. For the UEFA Conference league, the league path is from the 3rd qualifying round as all needed entries and a few ROW teams can be added at this stage. The league path starts from the play-off round as the previous rounds are for teams eliminated from the CL 1st qualifying round.
Adding the 3rd tier of these leagues would mean adding up to 8 additional leagues per version, it would not be possible without requiring more than 4 UEFA versions. I want to avoid this.
Hi
@scouser09 for me the latest version was the best but i would if possible like all the lower leagues to be available in one version (this may not be possible)
It would not be possible, in the last version it was only possible to include all lower leagues from England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Portugal and Netherlands in a single version.
hey guys, really appreciating your work here
don`t know if this was asked before, but is there a way to start a career mode not as a 26 year old? thank you!
I think the only way to make the virtual pro younger is with cheat engine.
