CM Story - The Story of Josh McEwen
Wolverhampton Wanderers have confirmed the departure of Vitor Pereira as head coach following their 2-0 away lose to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Wolves currently sit bottom of the Premier League table without a win from their first eight games and look to be favourites for relegation. The club have acted fast in replacing Vitor Periera with unknown manager Josh McEwen taking the reigns must to the disappointment of Wolves fans who are concerned that an unknown manager with no experience has been handed the tough task of saving Wolves from relegation woth a number of supporters clubs already criticising the appointment. A statement from Wolves was released earlier this morning. Wolverhampton Wanderers can confirm that Vitor Pereira has left his position as head coach by mutual consent. The club wishes to express its gratitude to Vitor for his dedication and hard work during his tenure at Molineux. This decision comes after a period in which results have unfortunately fallen short of both the club’s and supporters’ expectations. After careful consideration, the club’s leadership felt that a change was necessary not only to address immediate challenges on the pitch, but also to lay a stronger foundation for the long-term progress and success of Wolverhampton Wanderers. In light of this, the club is pleased to announce the appointment of Josh McEwen, as Vitor’s successor. The club believes that Josh’s fresh approach and vision can help to turn the season around, instil renewed confidence in the squad, and set a positive course for the future. Wolverhampton Wanderers are committed to supporting Josh as he takes on this role and look forward to the next chapter under his leadership. Josh added a brief statement saying “I am delighted to have been given this opportunity to manage Wolves, it is a club that belongs in the Premier league and our whole focus is on helping improve both performance and results on the pitch to ensure the club is still in the Premier League next season. I know concerns have been raised about myself being appointed but I urge our fans to get behind the players and give me the chance to show that I can turn this season around and keep this fantastic football club where they belong.”
[Bug] Unable to Renew Contracts with Any Player in Career Mode
Hello, I would like to report a critical bug I encountered in EA FC 26 Career Mode (Manager). Issue: I am unable to renew the contract of any player in my club, no matter how many times I try. Details: The issue occurs both when starting a brand-new career and when continuing into later seasons (e.g., 5th year). After some time, players end up leaving the club for very low transfer fees, even if I don’t accept it. This completely breaks the career experience. I recorded a video as an example and attached it here. Platform: PlayStation 5 Game Version: Launch version (the game was just released today) Expected Behavior: I should be able to renew contracts with players in my squad and keep them unless I decide otherwise. Actual Behavior: The game does not allow me to renew contracts at all with any player in the squad, and after some time, players leave for cheap transfer fees without my approval. It’s very clear that this hasn’t been properly tested. Even if this is presented as a “new feature,” it makes no sense that all 32 players in the squad would refuse to renew their contracts. That’s completely unrealistic and ruins the career mode experience. This issue makes Career Mode frustrating. Please fix this as soon as possible, otherwise buying early access feels pointless. Please see the attached video for a clear demonstration of the issue. Thank you for your support and hard work! Best regards,Avatar pro club save failed
Pro Clubs Avatar Save Failed Error – FC 26 (PlayStation) Hello EA Support Team, I am experiencing an issue in EA SPORTS FC 26 on PlayStation with Pro Clubs. Whenever I try to save any changes to my Pro Clubs player (avatar appearance, name, or edits), I receive the following error message: “PRO_CLUB_AVATAR_SAVE_FAILED_ERROR” I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps: - Restarting the game and console (full shutdown) - Checking internet connection - Logging out and back into my EA account - Making minimal changes and saving - Trying at different times The issue still persists. It appears to be a server-side or account-related issue, as no changes can be saved at all. Platform: PlayStation Game Mode: Pro Clubs Game: EA SPORTS FC 26 Please investigate this issue and advise on a fix or reset for my Pro Clubs profile. Thank you for your support. Best regards,
Hot Join functionality - Feedback Thread
Hey everyone, we just enabled Hot Join functionality in Clubs League, Playoff, and Friendly matches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\S, and PC versions of EA SPORTS FC 26. With Hot Join, players can now join an in-progress Clubs League, Playoff, or Friendly match, allowing one substitution per team. This feature is designed to make it easier for Clubs players to participate in matches, even if they're joining late. Let us know what you think of this new functionality. We've received lots of feedback about this from our Clubs Community and would like to know if this is a welcome addition and works well or what you would see improved on.Create/Edit Real Players Mode Needs Open Heart Surgery!
I dont mean this to sound rude, but Create/Edit Real Players has been the same for 10+ years now and its getting rather embarrassing! Were on PS5 consoles in 2025 not PS4 in 2013.. I make a thread on your Official Forums each year on how this mode can be improved that gets ignored EVERY year. But again, here i am with a list i feel can dramatically improve the creation side of the game that i ask for you to PLEASE look at: • Cold Weather Gear: Please add this setting that Data Reviewers get as an option IN GAME! This is needed for so many reasons that i will post below.. • Short Wrist Tape: We have a Long Tape option, but no Short? Short should be the default as that is what 90% of players actually wear yet its missing from the game? Instead, you have players running around wearing Sweatbands, this isn't Tennis! We need LOTS more accessory options, see MLB: The Show, they have an option for Short/Medium/Long Wrist Tape.. • Wrist Tape/Accessories Bug: Regarding Wrist Tape etc, there is STILL a Bug of when if a player wears coloured Wrist Tape then he wears the Home kit's colour for the Away & 3rd kits too which looks ridiculous! We need a 'Same As Kit' Colour option for accessories! • STILL no Undershorts option? Instead it's strangely defaulted to players ONLY in Cold Weather? This is why we need the Cold Weather Gear setting, as you could select Undershorts then choose On/Off/Cold Weather Only) so please make them selectable! • Grip Sock option: 90% of players have been wearing this sock option for YEARS now • Add the holes in socks Sock Type that Bellingham wears in-game into the socks options so we can give Created/Edited Players the same socks option? It's literally in the game.. • Please add Tattoos you can apply for the Right Arm, also for the Left Arm, so we can actually create matching Sleeve Tattoos! Why would there be different options for Left/Arm & Right Arm!? Also add LOTS more Tattoo options, just look at all the ones you had in The Journey that came out 8 years ago!? You literally have the assets.. • Please add ALL the new hairstyle options that players with Cranium faces have into Create a Player! (I've seen MANY that aren't selectable!?) • Ankle Tape: Should only be an On/Off setting only, as by law the colour HAS to match the sock anyway, so im not sure why we have blue ankle tape / red ankle tape etc.. (When set to On it would be the same colour as whatever kit they are playing in, just like Undershirts do) • Undershirt lengths: Please add different lengths for Undershirts such as 3/4 and rolled up • Shorts lengths: Please add Short & Long options for Shorts, the current ones would be Medium.. • Compression Pants: Please add these long Undershorts that players such as Robben/Giggs used to wear in Cold Weather (again a Cold Weather Gear setting needed) the assets are already in-game as they were in VOLTA! • Arm Sleeves: That Pogba etc wear • Potential Stat: This should be editable under Attributes • Composure Stat: This should be editable too, in fact make everything editable! • PlayStyles: These should have their own tab that we can be manually added/removed from players • Please show a players Star Head as his Profile Photo instead of a black silhouette • Bring back Game Face • Cranium: If Game Face can't be used, then let us upload photos so Cranium can make a player likeness for our Created or Generic player • Gloves: Why are they are so basic? Add Adidas, Nike and Club Logo branded ones • Colour Wheel: Add a colour wheel instead of having multiple different colours for each item, there should only be 1 item, for example: Wrist Tape, then you choose the colour.. • Manager Cold Weather Gear: Another reason for needing Cold Weather Gear, as currently in Manager Career you edited attire is automatically overwritten when playing in Cold Weather by coats/jackets that aren't selectable!? • We can only Create a Player with the Burth Year of 2005 so they are automatically 19, this needs changing to 2008 so we can create 16 year olds..I cannot respond to offers for player transfers in career mode.
In the manager career mode that I started 7 days ago on PlayStation 5, I see a 'no action available' notification in the offers made to the players and I cannot respond to transfer offers. Depending on this situation, transfer requests are automatically rejected after a few days in the game. This issue started three days ago, early in my second season. It's definitely not related to the club's financial situation or the players' contracts. I've tried checking for updates, creating a new save, and continuing the game, but nothing seems to work. At the same time, my scouts started to be unable to find players. Even though their player search filters were set to "all". These appear to be bugs in the game at this stage. Can you help me with this issue?
FC 26 Career Mode - not loading saves
I go through the terrible new UI for entering manager career mode, and I navigate carefully to the load save option (instead of it just being like last year on the front page which was way easier to use might I add). Then I go to the save I want to use, and I get stuck on a blank screen where I cannot select anything or exit or anything, I have to close the game down. Please fix this as it is atrocious and completely unacceptable.

What's the point of giving a timeout ban for a player who leaves a rush game mode when they just get replaced by an AI? because people would want to leave due to either bad teammates, terrible gameplay from themself or they just want to come up against different people and not people who just ruin the game by spamming skill moves all the time and it's not like leaving the game is actually hurting people or annoying people half the time people dont even realise a person has actually left
