Progress is stored on the EA account level, not on individual platforms like PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, etc. This means if you link your platform to a different EA account, you'll lose access to that progress.
It sounds like that's what happened here. When you linked the PSN account to this EA account, it would have left the progress behind on the original EA account rather than transferring it here.
If you have progress on two separate EA accounts, there will not be a way to combine or merge that to the same account. If you're just looking to try and get the progress back on your PSN account, you would need to link it back to the original EA account where that progress was first earned.
If you run into any trouble re-linking the accounts, please contact support directly so they can take a look.

It looks like that may be what happened here, as your PlayStation account was only linked to this EA account towards the end of last year. Whatever progress you had unlocked while playing on PlayStation before this would be on the previous EA account.
You would need to re-link your PSN to the original EA account to try recovering access to that content.We have some additional information about this particular situation in our blog and guides below, but if you have any issues re-linking your accounts please reach back out to support so they can help get your platform account back to its original EA account.
If you're needing to unlink an account but don't have the option, our support team may need to help make that change.
If you create a new case here and select Game Support > The EA app > I want to update my EA Account information, you should be able to get in touch with the support team so they can take a look.
