Always make sure if you’ve promised a squad number to a player before confirming. It’s an easy thing to forget and can be a silly way to lose a player’s trust.
In this menu, you’ll see every player in your squad, their currently assigned squad number if they have one, and their preferred or promised squad number if they have one. From here, simply click the drop-down menu to the left of their name to allocate them a specific number. Alternatively, you can click Auto Number in the bottom right corner to have the numbers assigned automatically.
Unfortunately, once you’ve submitted a player’s squad number for the season, you can’t change it until the next season. The only way to free up a squad number mid-season is to sell or loan the player out, and even then you can only assign that number to players who don’t already have a number.
