Incorrect European Qualification Logic

Bug Description:

I’m playing Career Mode in EA SPORTS FC 25 on Xbox One S, using Chelsea FC.

At the end of the season:

I finished 4th in the Premier League, which should qualify me for the UEFA Champions League.
I also won the UEFA Conference League.

However, instead of being placed in the Champions League, my team was placed in the UEFA Europa League the following season.

This is incorrect based on real-world UEFA rules:

Finishing 4th in the Premier League guarantees a Champions League spot.
Winning the Conference League only grants Europa League access if the team hasn’t already qualified for a higher competition through their domestic league.

It looks like the game is incorrectly prioritizing the Conference League win.

Expected Outcome:

Chelsea should be placed in the Champions League due to their 4th place finish.

Actual Outcome:

Chelsea was placed in the Europa League instead.

Platform: Xbox One S

Mode: Career Mode

Team Used: Chelsea FC

Competition Results:

Frequency: Happened once but may occur regularly

Game Version: EA SPORTS FC 25 (latest update)

Impact:

This breaks realism and penalizes players for winning extra competitions. It reduces the immersion and accuracy of Career Mode.
