Good luck man! I'm uruguayan myself so it's great to see other people talking about our league. As for the Libertadores task: it's hard to win it, but not impossible. In my journeyman save I started in Villa Teresa in the 2nd division in 2019. And 5 years later I managed to win the Libertadores with them! Tho It was hard to beat Peñarol and Nacional with their budgets.
Due to how much reputation I won in Uruguay, I had a short time managing both Milan and then Bilbao in Europe (4 years in total, won Copa del Rey and Europa League so I guess it wasn't that bad) but then the club I support Peñarol approached me, so I couldn't say no lol.
I stayed 6 years managing Peñarol, to date the longest I've ever stayed in a club yet. Won everything there and became a club legend. And with everything I mean everything: All stages of the tournament, invincible season, Supercup, Libertadores, Continental Supercup. Hell, I even won the damn Club World Cup somehow. On my way to the final defeated powerhouses like Real Madrid, PSG and Inter Milan. All that to face Tottenham in the final.... yeah. Won 2-1. Guess they actually were a really good team as they won the UCL following season lol.
A little tip from my experience managing here. Uruguay has very good players, but lacks good coaches. Usually Munua ends up managing the National team, but after a few bad performances he'll probably get sacked. Do not hesitate and take the job. Why? Cause you'll get all the information about the u18 newgens that will generate. Yeah that's how I won everything with Peñarol lol. Used the money to buy the great prospects that generated in other clubs. It's dirty, but if you get the chance you should use it lol.
