FM Kit Creator Updated for Football Manager 2026
FM26 introduces a new 3D kit model and updated texture, and the creator tool has been adapted to match. Both 2D and 3D kits have been successfully tested with the FM26 Beta. Though users may notice a small visual bug in the locker room preview, kits display correctly during gameplay.
New Football Manager 26 Kit Model
The new Football Manager 26 kit texture is totally new from the layout, and has been quadrupled in size - it now has a resolution of 2048x2028, compared to 1024x1024 before. We have been told by the guys of fmkitcreator.com that there are some flaws with the new 3D model, e.g., a low quality of the polygons, resulting in bad visuals (see the collar, for example).
To install kits, simply drop the downloaded folder into `Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 26/graphics` (create the folder if needed). Remember: you’ll need to restart the game after adding kits, as reloading graphics in-game is not yet possible.
By default, FM26 mode is now active on FM Kit Creator, but you can still switch between FM24 and FM26 in the dropdown menu.

Uruguay Requests FIFA 'Legacy' Patch for Muslera's 2026 World Cup Kit
The Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) has formally requested that FIFA allow goalkeeper Fernando Muslera to wear the special 'Legacy' patch on his jersey sleeve during the 2026 World Cup. The patch is designated for players who have participated in five or more World Cup tournaments, a milestone Muslera is reaching with his inclusion in the 2026 squad.
Muslera was initially excluded from receiving the patch by FIFA because he did not register any playing time during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, despite being part of the official squad. His previous World Cup appearances came in 2010, 2014, and 2018. The AUF is now pushing for his recognition alongside other five-time tournament veterans such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Manuel Neuer, and Luka Modrić.
The 40-year-old goalkeeper is expected to start in Uruguay's opening match of the 2026 World Cup. If FIFA approves the request, Muslera's jersey will feature the 'Legacy' patch, marking his long-standing service to the national team across five different World Cup campaigns.
