Why EA Sports FC 26 Must Overhaul Career Mode’s Historical Tracking

One of the most important elements for FC 26 Coins immersion in Career Mode is the sense of progression — not just during a single season, but across multiple years. However, in EA Sports FC 25, a critical flaw remains: player and manager statistics are wiped clean at the end of each season. This lack of historical continuity significantly damages the long-term appeal of Career Mode, and FC 26 has a real opportunity to fix it with a proper record-keeping system.

Currently, FC 25 tracks seasonal statistics like goals, assists, clean sheets, and bookings, but once the season ends, those numbers disappear. This means you can’t look back at how a player evolved or measure the impact of your decisions across multiple years. For players who enjoy building clubs from the ground up over 5–10 in-game seasons, the inability to reference past performances breaks immersion and undercuts the legacy they’re trying to build.

In contrast, titles like Football Manager excel at long-term narrative development by keeping detailed career records. Managers can scroll through season-by-season breakdowns of player stats, club achievements, and transfer histories. This not only enhances realism but also fosters a deep emotional connection with the game world. In FC 26, a similar system is not just a luxury — it’s a necessity.

The solution starts with individual player records. FC 26 should allow users to view each footballer’s year-by-year stats, including goals, assists, minutes played, position changes, and club history. A "career summary" tab could highlight milestones such as first appearances, hat-tricks, and awards. This would make it easier to track development and celebrate achievements, reinforcing the narrative value of buy FC 26 Coins each save.
