Hi iggy23, welcome to Python & the forums!

You did not give enough information to help you right now. Please read through How to Ask Smart Questions

Usually, when a problem seems to big, you start by breaking it up into smaller pieces, then tackle those one-by-one.

I would try to get some overviews first:
What software is already available? (See, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Python_software)
Which of this resembles in which parts what I'm dreaming of? 
Which of the existing programs / libraries / ... can be helpful to me?

And how long will it take to learn the necessary skills? (But you will underestimate this. Always.)

Yes, python can be used.
Are you managing teams, or simulating games? Those sound completely unrelated to me.
Making player trades depends on however you want to do it.

Personally, I like designing databases, so I'd start by mapping out table structure and maybe fill it with sample data. From there, I'd build a few html pages to display it (because I'm very familiar with displaying info as a webpage, and could do that faster than any other method). Then, I'd write a few simple methods using a small framework such as Flask, and fill those html pages with data. Then I'd add mutating operations to the data (adding teams, renaming things, etc). Then... it's done, I guess, so a prettier interface?

Ok :) 

i´m starting to understand what i need to do :)

The meaning is that at the beginning you could fx select career mode, where you should control 1 team, and if you could make good results, then you could stay or get offers from other teams....
