**###### Dear OSM Community Managers,
Many users, including myself, have noticed significant changes regarding the visual assets in the game. It appears that due to licensing issues, several original team logos have been removed, and specific teams/leagues are no longer available.
Could you please provide an official statement regarding this situation? specifically:
Are these changes permanent, or are negotiations for licenses ongoing?
Is there a plan to restore the original logos or bring back the removed teams in future updates?
Should we expect similar changes to other leagues soon?
We appreciate your hard work but would value transparency on this matter to manage our expectations.
Regards.

I'm not aware of any logos been removed. Can you provide examples?

The most striking example appeared in the last Battle Leagues we played. We start a battle in the Portuguese League, but the mainstays of the league are nowhere to be found.

3 . Some of premier league teams logo? I can see man city and Liverpool orginal logos. the rest of the league has been converted to standard, generic OSM logos.

Deals with Portuguese teams were for one season only and they were removed years ago.
Premier league we only have rights for some clubs (logos wise... and it's been like this for some years)
What do you mean with country logos on scout?
-
As for the logos and stuff, how come you guys have never tried to acquire rights for smaller leagues (Gibraltar, Malta.. even Croatia)? Im sure it shouldnt be so expensive, yet it would give nice touch to the visual aspect of the game...

Not my call on that, so I can only guess:
- Not enough active leagues to justify, which means it doesn't justify the time/money spent
- No real organisation behind those leagues to have a clear legal definiton who owns the rights (my small knowledge on this area tells me that there're a lot of grey areas and legal disputes about those rights)

Makes sense. Thanks for replying and giving some insight
I do believe league could become bit more popular if tehy had logos and visuals, some people do love that touch in the game
