Bug in Seasons Mode: Missing Player and Strange Substitution with Real Madrid

Hi EA Team,

I wanted to report a strange bug I encountered while playing Seasons mode with Real Madrid.

I played three matches, and during the first two, I noticed something odd—I couldn’t see Vini Jr. on the field, but I thought maybe I just wasn’t paying enough attention. However, in the third match, I decided to check the lineup, and Vini Jr. was indeed selected. But again, I couldn’t see him on the field. I started counting the players and realized there were only 10 players on the pitch—9 outfield players and the goalkeeper. Even the commentator mentioned that I was a player down. Just to clarify, none of my players were sent off or anything like that.

At halftime, I opened the management screen and decided to swap Vini Jr., who was already selected, with Bellingham. That’s when something even stranger happened—the game substituted Bellingham with Vini Jr. instead of just switching their positions! Despite this, I still had only 10 players on the field.

And if you look closely, you’ll notice that in the team management screen, Vini Jr. has full stamina while the other players’ stamina is partially depleted.

I’ve attached some screenshots to show what I experienced. This bug was quite frustrating, and I hope it can be looked into.

Thanks for your attention!
