In Football Manager, use the English language setting to export correct column names for FMDataLab to parse correctly. While FMDataLab does attempt to translate data exported in other languages back into English, this process may not fully restore the necessary details, potentially impacting the tool's functionality. Therefore, it is advisable to export your player list directly in English from Football Manager's Preferences settings.
