In Football Manager 2017, players will have to grapple with the complex negotiations of the UK trying to extract itself from the European Union.
The game, which is released at the beginning of November, will explore the options the UK faces, from 'soft' Brexit to 'hard' Brexit.

Now I'm gonna have to apply for a work permit for literally everyone
The 'hard' Brexit storyline - which even Theresa May has not outlined yet - will see transfers made more difficult so that rules for transferring non-EU football players also apply to EU players.
The whole Remain campaign should of just been that screen on Football Manager where your wonderkid fails to get a work permit

"The first option for the game was to have just one scenario and that would be it, Brexit done, but it's not possible to come out with one outcome and it won't be until all the negotiations are done.
"As a result we've decided to go down another route, and have included every possible outcome in the game, using artificial intelligence and percentage chances to make every game different."
After the referendum in the summer, fans were already joking about how Brexit might affect the game.
One games fan, Jimmy Gibson, tweeted: "Thanks guys, you've completely ruined Football Manager. Now I'm gonna have to apply for a work permit for literally everyone."
Another, @mrdjgallagher, tweeted: "The whole Remain campaign should have just been that screen on Football Manager where your wonderkid fails to get a work permit."
