Scouting Network

This facility allows you to control and upgrade your scouting facilities in Soccer Manager 2021. You can send you club scouts on assignments to find potential players. Upgrading the facility will increase the number of scouts as well as boost their effectiveness. Your scouts will bring in detailed reports on scouted players. You can get to know everything from the scouts – from how good the player is to the exact mentality he has, all can be found in these reports.

Avoid signing players simply going by their stats. Look at the scout report to see how well they would fit into your squad and how likely it is that they would want to join you.

Training Ground

This facility is the area where you will be able to train your squad in various activities as well as see each individual player’s progress. Upgrading the facility will boost the effectiveness of training drills as well as increase the training capacity of your squad.

You can look at each individual report to see how well each player is performing. Improving players are more likely to grow whilst declining players are more likely to drop in quality.

Always keep a close eye on the match fitness of each individual player. Make sure to keep this at a high value to ensure the players are fit for matches as this will have an effect on their quality.
