Online football management game · free

Build your club.
Become a legend.

Take over a team from the bottom tier and carry it as high as you can. Every choice counts: Saturday’s tactics, the player you keep, the sponsor you turn down. Trust your instinct — the pitch will tell you whether you were right.

No download. No bank card. It runs in your browser.

Each has his own face, his own character and his own career — and you will follow them over several seasons.

The trailer — 42 seconds

You are not watching the match.
You are running it.

Here, a match is not just a score that drops in. It lasts ninety minutes, it is played while you are there, and the bench is yours: an instruction on the 60th, a player fading who gets replaced, a gamble that comes off or falls flat.

And everything else is yours as well

Your tactics

Shape, style, team instructions, an individual role for each man. Ask a winger to cut inside: he will be more dangerous there, and his touchline will be empty. The opposition will see it.

Your squad

Men who age, get injured, improve — and who understand each other all the better for playing together. Rebuilding your squad every summer is paid for on the pitch.

Your facilities

Training ground, academy, treatment room, stands: you expand when you can, and every project takes time and costs money before it brings any in. A treatment room worth the name means players who come back sooner.

Your books

Ticketing, sponsors, wages, building work. The most generous sponsor rarely is so for your image: it is up to you to decide what your reputation is worth.

Your seasons

One season ends, another begins: bonuses land, youngsters come through the academy, contracts run out and your veterans take on a year. And depending on where you finish, you go up or you go down.

Your competitions

One league per division, with promotion and relegation — six countries, several tiers, and the opening fixture waiting for you. Above them, the Champions Cup: eight clubs, each country’s champion qualified outright, the runners-up through a play-off, then quarters, semis, final. And across from you, these are not machines: they are managers.

A club that looks like you

Draw your crest — the shape, the pattern, the colours, the initials — and the shirt your players will wear on the pitch, right down to the match view. Choose the look of the site too: a pattern, a shade, and the interface takes your colours.

Nothing is an image to upload: everything is drawn from your settings, so it is sharp at any size and impossible to break.

The match, minute by minute

Follow the game through the commentary, or watch it play out on the pitch. The ball goes from man to man and lands where the engine really sent it: the words and the picture tell the same story, because they come out of the same calculation.

And all the while, the bench is yours. An instruction, a change of position, a substitution — it can all be replayed mid-match.

A real match, seen from the touchline — sped up four times, nothing else is retouched.

The world turns, whether you are there or not

Match days are played at fixed times, seasons follow one another, youngsters come through the academy. Being there changes your matches; it does not set them off.

Frequently asked questions

The ones we are actually asked. They also answer what people type into a search engine, and that is just as well.

Is Golteo free?

Yes, entirely, and with no purchase that gives a sporting advantage. A club is run with time and decisions, not with a bank card.

Do I need to download anything?

No. The game runs in the browser, on a computer as on a phone.

How much time does it take?

A few minutes a day are enough: matches are played without you. Sitting through a match live takes an hour and a half — that is a pleasure, not an obligation.

Can I play against real people?

That is the whole point. The world is shared: the clubs around you are held by other managers, with whom you negotiate transfers and friendlies, and to whom you write.

What happens if I am away for a week?

Your team plays anyway, with the last tactics you left behind. You find everything in your inbox when you come back.

Your bench is waiting

A club, a league, and the opening fixture on Wednesday.
