@SambaFutbol22PSG would be really good. They do get scanned way too often compared to other partner teams but they have got a lot of great unscanned young players.
Ugarte
Zaire-Emery
Ramos
Barcola
Tenas
Ndour
Ekitike
Yeah some great faces in there but it would be nice if Lyon, Marseille and Lille were scanned as well.
Not for you all to get your hopes up - but I don't expect much from the next update. ☹️
If you could all choose 3 teams to have full treatment, who would you all choose?
Mine would be:
Sheffield Wednesday (probably never going to happen in my life time)
Chelsea full scan including all loan army/young pleayers
Wrexham (again never gonna happen)

Anything from Serie A and/or Bundesliga and I’ll be 😃

- Roma
- Salzburg
- Monaco
Frankfurt would have been my first pick but we know they’ve been scanned. Wolfsburg as well but hopefully the Bundesliga gets scanned in the future.

Pompey fan here...which means
Portsmouth FC
Hull City
Sheffield United (for Ahmedhodzic lol )
Although, Portsmouth actually has four player scans and that is a lot for a League 1 team. The average might be 1.5. Then you have Salford City in League 2 which has like five lol.
Face scans are pretty awesome, but stadium scans I would love to see. No reason why they can't scan the whole English Football League system lol. Including the National League with my beloved Oldham Athletic - 🦉 🦉
Happy New Year to yall from the States!
Can’t wait for Sporting Club Portugal 🇵🇹 scans next year!! They finally partnered with EA so Hopefully their Alvalade stadium is in EAFC 25. So much young talent coming out of their academy. Their coach Amorim is a hot commodity, and their game opening crowd singing its anthem is a wild experience. Hopefully EA can replicate!!
- @SambaFutbol22 Monaco was my 4th choice and my 5th was between Salzburg, a Benfica rescan or Sporting Lisbon. Love a good high potential young player that's scanned
Yea like they have with Rangers and Celtic…. Oh
I’d be greedy and ask for a full EFL championship scan.. means some good career modes getting teams promoted and would also mean when teams do get promoted in real life, we aren’t waiting u til February for their scans in the premier league. It would just be a case of scanning and adding their new signings.
- @AndyApple this would be a dream for me. For my team Sheffield Wednesday to have a fully scanned stadium and team. Not only that have tons and tons of potential signings with scans from other championship clubs.
I can't see EA prioritising the EFL though because they do as little work as possible and it won't make them any extra money. All the focus is FUT. One of many improvement ideas I have but sadly I don’t work for them
EA only want to make money on micro transactions.
If they scanned the full EFL and sold each teams scans at £1 each. I'd happily pay an extra £100 to have a fully scanned EFL in game. I'd unlock every single teams scans or even £5 per team. Over the year I'd probably pay for most of the teams faces to be unlocked.
Even with charging for the face scans I still don't think EA would go through the extra effort because why would they when all they need to do is put a fancy card around a generic player and people will spend £1000's to try and get that card. Minimal effort for huge profits.

They have a monopoly on a game that's played by so many. Of course they want to utilize the modes which make the most $$ (UT...).
However, as soon as a valid competitor comes into the market - they'll have to up their game. I don't know where FIFA stands with their new game, but if anyone can give them a run for the money - it's FIFA. Once FIFA establishes a basis on the game — they'll take the "legal" route to buy them out of leagues, competitions, etc. At that point it will be a checkmate. I hope EA ups their game.

if only EA scanned all the partner teams every year then things would be looking good 👍- @SambaFutbol22 it's criminal that they leave partner clubs like Benfica, Ajax, Lyon, Porto unscanned for years at a time. Clubs like these are young talent factories and every year their top players get sold and they bring in more brilliant young players. Teams like the ones above and Salzburg, Monaco, PSV, Sporting etc should all be priorities every year for EA to make sure they're getting the best youth players scanned before they move to top clubs. Antonio Silva from Benfica looks to be the next generational talent to transfer away. Chelsea, Real madrid etc are after him. If they bothered to scan Benfica every year then he'd already have a starhead by now rather than been stuck in a top team after a transfer with a horrific generic for a year or 2
Posting this here until we have further news.
I think all those players have either had new scan introduced or they still have old scan anyway?
their still alot missing
Why was Milan Primamavera in Fifa 23 and is not in FC 24. Asking about Kevin Zeroli who is not in the game. A face scan of him and other youth players would be great. Maybe they will update him and Ethan Mbappe in a title update this year ?

There’s at least a dozen or so talents in those clubs currently. Scanning Ligue 1 would also be huge for talents.
No updates today - maybe next week?
Needs one soon. I never start a career until the premier league update , seems to get later each year

Agreed - I started mine and then stopped lol. Someone said something about 18/19? Which is next week.
I said that as a guess
