SI has already demonstrated intolerance to controversial figures, with Mason Greenwood removed from the game in the most recent Winter Update.

Miles Jacobson confirmed in a Tweet that the final content update has been delayed due to 'sanctions and bans that have been put in place by various authorities due to the war in Ukraine.'

Last year, the final content update included transfers that occurred across MLS and China, as well as addressing any free transfers that took place in the EFL.

As with any other previous FM update, you will have to begin a new save in order for any of these transfers to take effect.

More general bug fixes were also included in last year's final update, with the team at SI constantly looking for ways to improve their game.
