Here’s a list of top 7 Directors of Football in Football Manager 2021 that you should definitely consider signing for your team in FM21.
Top 7 Directors of Football in Football Manager 2021

Here’s a list of top 7 Directors of Football in Football Manager 2021 that you should definitely consider signing for your team in FM21. 


Some of the mentioned staff on this list will not be available immediately while some others may even be at other roles in their current clubs. However, they are the best staff available for the role of Director of Football in FM 2021.

Before we get to the list let us see what are the job roles of a Director of Football in the game and what are his required attributes.

In Football Manager 2021, if you delegate all responsibilities to your staff members, a DoF is responsible for these things:

    · First team recruitment
    · U23/B team recruitment
    · U19 team recruitment
    · Coaching courses
    · First team staff contract renewals
    · Staff contract renewals for U23/B team
    · Staff contract renewals for the U19 team
    · Find and sign players for the first team
    · Handle incoming offers for first-team players
    · Outgoing development loans
    · Find and sign young players for the future (U19)
    · Handle incoming offers for youth team players (U19)
    · Find and sign young players for the future (U23/B team)
    · Handle incoming offers for youth team players (U23/B team)
    · Player contracts discussions

As you can see, your DoF can completely run the club if you give him the power. 

However, the game tells us that the most important 3 attributes for a good DOF are Judging Player Ability, Judging Player Potential and Negotiating.

With that in mind let us see the 7 best Directors of Football in the game

Luis Campos


Luis Campos Football Manager 2021

· Age: 55
· Current Club/Job: DoF at Lille OSC
· Nationality: Portuguese
· Current Contract: £8.5k/week until 30/6/2024 

Topping the best directors of football list in this year's FM is current Lille's DoF, Luis Campos. Along with great attributes for the position, Campos has formerly worked as a scout so he's got a broad knowledge when searching for players. Campos will especially be of help if you're looking for South American players, along with players from Spain, Portugal and France.

Pasquale Cipriani (Fabio Paratici)


Fabio Paratici Football Manager 2021

· Age: 48
· Current Club/Job: General Manager Juventus/Zebre
· Nationality: Italian
· Current Contract: £14.75k/week until 30/6/2021 

Fabio Paratici, or Pasquale Cipriani, is a well-known name for many years now among the FM community. The Italian is one of the most deserving people for Juventus's return among the European football elite. If you want his real name to be displayed in the game, you will have to apply the real name fix for FM21.

Antero Henrique


Antero Henrique Football Manager 2021

· Age: 52
· Current Club/Job: N/A
· Nationality: Portuguese
· Current Contract: N/A 

The other Portuguese on our list is Antero Henrique, a man who has been working as a director of football for over 15 years. From 2005 to 2013 he worked at Porto, before taking a place at PSG. He is now without a contract, which means that there will be no compensation paid when signing him.

Leonardo


Leonardo Football Manager 2021

· Age: 50
· Current Club/Job: DoF at PSG
· Nationality: Brazilian
· Current Contract: £9k/week until 30/6/2024 

The man who filled the position at PSG when Campos left is none other than the Milan legend, former Brazil international Leonardo. In addition to having excellent attributes for the position of director of football, Leonardo has excellent knowledge of players from Brazil and top European leagues, as well as for players from faraway Japan.

Michael Edwards


Michael Edwards Football Manager 2021

· Age: 41
· Current Club/Job: DoF at Liverpool
· Nationality: English
· Current Contract: £20k/week until 30/6/2025

Although he has spent most of his time in football as a head performance analyst for some of the Premier League’s most famous clubs, Edwards has been employed as the director of football for the Anfield club for the past four years. He enjoys great trust from Jurgen Klopp which can only mean one thing, the man is good at his job.

Monchi


Monchi Football Manager 2021

· Age: 51
· Current Club/Job: DoF at Sevilla
· Nationality: Spanish
· Current Contract: £16.5k/week until 30/6/2025 

The man who, along with Unai Emery, is most credited for Sevilla’s dominance in the Europa League over the past decade, is the one and only Monchi. Known for being able to find hidden gems, Monchi is the ideal director of football if you aim to find and develop talented young players at your own club.

Igli Tare


Igli Tare Football Manager 2021

· Age: 47
· Current Club/Job: DoF at Lazio
· Nationality: Albanian
· Current Contract: £32.5k/week until 30/6/2022 

Former national team player of Albania and player of Lazio, Igli Tare is the last director of football that we will suggest to you on this list. He is a great pick if you are looking for players from the German Bundesliga, Italian Serie A or young talents from Eastern Europe.

Notable Mentions


Notable names that did not make the list include, Pablo Longoria, Javier Ribalta, Txiki Bergiristain, Antonio Cordon & Ralf Rangnick.

That concludes the list of the top 7 directors of football in Football Manager 2021. These are the crème de la crème and are responsible for several revolutions at club level where they are currently employed. 

As a bonus, it is always good for your DoF to have world knowledge in more countries making hiring and negotiation a lot easier.
