With the January transfer window now over, many players will be eager to get the FM23 winter transfer update date and have a database that reflects real life. While it might mean that cheap wonderkids are suddenly unavailable after their move to big clubs, it does help you achieve the most up-to-date Football Manager experience. 

So, read on below to find out all of the details regarding the FM23 Winter Transfer update, including the release date and some alternative mods.

FM23 Winter Transfer update release date

The Football Manager 23 Winter Transfer update releases on March 2, 2023, providing a tonne of changes to the game.

As opposed to older entries, Winter Updates now release across two parts, with the main bulk of moves arriving in the first set, and any supplementary changes in the latter.

Following this pattern, the main winter update for FM22 was released on February 24, 2022, with the additional database change dropping one month later on March 24, 2022.

If you can't quite wait until the big official update though, there is an abundance of player-made database updates which will give you your fix early. They don't just include the biggest transfers too, as they are instead packed with an incredible amount of other small changes and transfer moves.

The best unofficial FM23 database update at the moment is the Football Manager Transfer Update by pr0, as even the deals that were squeezed in at the last minute have been included.

You will of course unfortunately need to start a whole new save in order to apply the database update, as it would make things a bit complicated trying to apply it to a save currently in progress. This is the same case as the official one though, so you will have to make a sacrifice if you want to achieve realism.

That completes this guide on the FM23 Winter Transfer update, and now you know when to expect the update.
