In Football Manager 2024, Atletico Pamplona are listed as a La Liga side that you can take charge of.
Given that Sports Interactive – the studio behind the game – don't have the rights to every club, some team names need to be altered as not to infringe on rights. In the past, Juventus have had an exclusivity deal with Pro Evolution Soccer (now eFootball), which meant that they had to be renamed as Zebre within the FM world. Manchester United are currently out of the game, too, listed as Manchester UFC from FM22 onwards.
Unfortunately, this means that often, you come across teams that you might not be aware of. There are a number in the game, such as Parthenope, Real Hispalis and Real San Sebastian.

“So last year, we added graphics for the Bundesliga, to make it look like a Bundesliga match would on the telly – and it went down really well,” Miles Jacobson, Studio Director at Sports Interactive, the team behind the game, told FFT last year.
“So we were already going to do it for the EFL this year. Then UEFA came along and we got a chance to do it for that. Because of the UEFA deal, we decided to revamp the cup draws in-game, too. We’ve got the music – you might as well use the music in more places!”
