In low levels surely it isn't much profitable

It takes 100 games to make up the 3 million it costs LOL


No, in no way can it be a convenient investment!

Are you crazy, my fan shop is level 10, it has only cost me 131,277,140 to get to that level and 3.7 seasons to build it and now it earns me 550,000 per home game. That means after 15 or so seasons I am going to be coining it in as it works out an incredible 137,500 per round (yes, you read it right 137,500 per fricking round)
Bad investment pah!!! you suckers are going to be sorry when that starts paying off!!!

don't mind them, some people are too lazy to math it out. or refuse to acknowledge some things because of their discontent in a completely separate matters.

Fanshop needs high stadium capacity to make the most out of it. I don't think it is a bad investment at all but not worth it before you have atleast 50K seats in your stadium. Until then you can invest your money in better and faster return investments.

Team Merchandise vs Giant Magnetos $ 255,897

Income from the fanshop and a lot more with cup and Champions matches

Yes, cheaper investment fast development, I have used it twice now to reduce taxes prior to season ending this making it a net cheaper investment .

First: don't you dare offend anyone, asshole.
Second: do you really want to compare a user who started playing season 12 with one who started playing season 1????????? There are much more important investments to make in the beginning!
For ex, your YT academy is too low
If some one sell a strong youth, at least 100 million enter easily. Think at "fan shop", lol

Stadium Capacity 20,000 seats (in a few rounds, it will be 25,000)

My stadium is still full every match, so I'm focussing on upgrading the capacity.

Also going to start investing a bit in the Youth Academy and Training Centre since I'd like to develop home-grown players.

7 Seasons in:
Stadium: About to hit 45K
Fan Shop: 2
Training: 11
Youth: 1
Medical:0
Media: 1

We're going to spend the rest of this season and next couple building out the Training + Youth.

Its a simple maths and its not a facility you can depend on for better income per season, you can build it after and expect it to cover some expenses like staff/facilities.
With 50k stadium and max level fanshop @$20, if average 70% fans buy things.
50k all home matches equals 700k×0.70×$20 =$9,800,000.
Training center + youth academy is more profitable in the long run.
I have 15k stadium when my youth academy hit level 12, i also have the best youth players from the academy no regret to opt against building fanshop till date.

One correction, you have 15 home matches in the league. So in the calculation you did above it is actually
15 * 50k * 70% * $20 = $10.5 million per season minimum on average.
There will be more matches in the international competitions if you are a top team participating in those. National trophy and league cup doesnt count towards this as they are played at neutral grounds.

But you are right, you should upgrade fan shop only when your stadium has very high capacity. In the beginning it is wiser to invest in youth academy and training centre (and may be even media office, haven't done that math yet)

Yes 15 home games in the league, have been calculating with 14.. And yes forgot to mention continental tour.
If i remember correctly
Fanshop/media office maintainance per season was the main reason its a secondary investment facilities. M/o was recently updated.

A fan shop may not be the best financial investment, but don't fans deserve some sort of shop - even a basic one?
