Many apps cannot be deleted by dragging the app to the trash.


Here are uninstallation instructions for this app: https://community.sigames.com/faq/football-manager-2020/238_how-to/242_mac/how-to-uninstall-football-manager-2020-r869/


Note that you may need to completely reinstall the app before you can properly remove it.
