The career mode in EA FC 25 gives you the opportunity to manage a team and lead it to success. There are a few strategies you should keep in mind.
EA FC 25: Career Mode – The right squad composition
Careful squad planning is the key to a successful career mode in EA FC 25.
- Without the right players on the field, you will struggle to prevail in important matches. It's not just about the best players, but also the long-term potential of your team.
- To begin with, you should analyze the squad and identify weak points. Pay attention not only to the overall rating of the players, but also to their development potential.
- Young players with great potential are often cheaper and have the chance to develop into stars. Opt for a mix of experienced professionals and young talents.
- Invest in talent early by using your scouting system. Young players you develop can not only become regular players, but also lead to high transfer profits.
- The tactical flexibility of your squad is also crucial. Make sure to sign players who can play in multiple positions.
- This will help you to absorb injuries or fluctuations in form. Also, build on a solid defense and a creative midfield core to control the game. Loan deals allow you to give players who are not yet ready for the first team match practice. At the same time, you keep the squad lean and reduce wage costs.
Make transfers cleverly
In EA FC 25's Career Mode, transfers are a key part of long-term success.
- The transfer market gives you the opportunity to strengthen your team in a targeted manner. It's not just about signing the best players, but also about managing your budget wisely.
- To make successful transfers, you should specifically look for players who can strengthen your team immediately. This includes a thorough analysis of the available players on the market.
- Use the scouting system to find players who fit well into your tactics and team structure. The most expensive players are not always the best choice. Don't underestimate the possibility of using contracts of expiring players. You can often sign these players for a fraction of their market value, which is especially useful when budgets are limited.
- Negotiations are a crucial part of the transfer process. Set realistic goals and don't immediately offer the maximum when buying players. Player agents often leave room for negotiation, which can save you important budget resources. It is equally important not to pay excessive salaries. Salaries that are too high put a strain on the budget in the long term and can lead to dissatisfaction within the team.
- Also, keep an eye on the loan market. Loan deals allow you to bring players into your team for little money without making long-term commitments. This can be particularly useful for filling short-term gaps in the squad.
