Meet Orri Thorisson - the man who has spent 8% of his life on Football Manager and turned it an actual management career.
Orri, a devoted Football Manager addict from Reykjavik, Iceland, transformed his passion for the game into a professional coaching career. He's dedicated over 13,700 hours to Football Manager, which is about 8% of his waking life.
In 2024, his dedication paid off when he was appointed as the head coach of Knattspyrnufélag Vesturbæjar (KV), a club in Iceland's fourth tier. The team, once a big name in Icelandic football, had been relegated two years in a row.
THIS is playing Football Manager in real life.
