A Top Eleven Alternative

Top Eleven is a polished mobile football manager with a huge player base and 3D live matches. It is free to start, and its premium currency, Tokens, is sold in the app.

Goal Legends is free with nothing to buy at all. Your club's own money is the only currency that matters on the transfer market, and seasons are long enough for a promotion push or a cup run to mean something.

When Top Eleven Is the Better Choice

Not every manager game suits every player. Stick with Top Eleven if:

  • You want 3D match presentation on your phone.
  • You want a game with a very large player base and a native mobile app.
  • You want licensed leagues and clubs in the game.

Nothing to Buy

There is no premium currency for sale in Goal Legends. Transfer bids, wages and upgrades are paid for with your club's own money, earned from sponsorship, merchandise, matchdays and prize money. The game is supported by ads, and nothing you could pay for changes a result.

Longer Seasons, Real Divisions

Every club sits in a real league pyramid: 16 divisions across 8 countries, with promotion and relegation. A season is 34 league matches, a domestic cup and, for the clubs that qualify, the Elite Champions Cup, played one matchday a day over about six weeks.

Your club carries over from season to season: squad, finances, facilities, youth prospects and reputation all build up, so long-term planning pays off.

Club and Country

Managers can be elected to run a national team, pick a squad from that country's players, and take it through qualifying to a World Cup, alongside their own club.
