Welcome to my FM 22 license fix guide! On this page you will find the latest FM 2022 license fix files. With an installation guide of course, on the bottom of this page.
Playing Football Manager 2022 with fake names is booooooring. It is highly unrealistic, immersion breaking, and simply not fun. But why fake names? Because there are tons of clubs, competitions, and organizations. It is not possible to make a license deal with all of them. We must understand this viewpoint.

However, it doesn’t mean that we are condemned to play with fake names. There is a player-made license patch called FM 2022 real name fix. Basically this fix replaces fake names with the real ones. Therefore making it a mandatory patch for a football manager simulation game in my opinion.
FM 22 Real Name Fix License
This is a fix made by FM scout and it’s been around since 2013. You can get FM 22 real name fix from it’s official page. It is %100 compatible with the latest updates. Even more, this fix works with existing saves.
FM22 real name fix patch properties:
- Real name fix for all playable clubs names from all continents.
- License fix for all major leagues names.
- Even non-playable Europe top leagues club names are fixed.
- Almost all minor leagues name fix.
- Fixes for all Continental, National and National cups names.
- Real names for continental awards.
- Corrected stadium names.
As you can see, FM 2022 real name fix solves all license problems. Therefore offering its users a %100 realistic gameplay experience.
I mean this is not a fictional game, it is almost a simulation. That is why real names are important. In case you are wondering this patch includes FM22 Zebre fix along with Germany, Brazil, Portugal, and Spain fixes.
