@AndyAppleThis would be the dream for me, expecially if it includes playable managers.
We already know Wrexham have been scanned. Stadiums of teams like Blackburn, Bristol and Coventry. Surely they're not going to scan a stadium and not the players?
As a Sheffield Wednesday fan I'd love my team scanned with stadiums. Sunderland scans would be amazing! Such a great young squad!
My favourite career modes are road to glory ones where I start in a lower league and work my way through the leagues (like Ipswich have recently) so EFL scans would be perfect!
Man i wish they scanned more lower league English stadiums. Tbf they've scanned quite a few so far but there's some arenas out there I'd love to see in the game.
To name a few:
Championship
•Deepdale (Preston)
•Hillsborough (Sheffield Wed)
•The Den (Milwall)
League One
•St. Andrews (Birmingham)
•St. James (Exeter)
•Macron Stadium (Bolton)
•Racecourse Ground (Wrexham)
•Oakwell (Barnsley)
•The Valley (Charlton)
League Two
•Valley Parade (Bradford)
•MK Stadium (MK Dons)
•Meadow Lane (Notts County)
•Highbury (Fleetwood)
•Vale Park (Port Vale)
@leave_ml after seeing Blackburn, Bristol etc come into the game this year, I don't think it will be too long before we at least see the remaining championship stadiums. I'd imagine Wrexhams will come also as we have already seen a scanning session for their players recently.
Growing up a minute from Hillsborough stadium and going to the games all my life with my grandad. It would be surreal actually seeing the stadium in EAFC. Knowing Wednesday won't get to the premiership any time soon, I thought there is no way that I will ever see their players or stadium scanned but I now hold a bit of hope

Scanning Wrexham. Total waste off resources.
Missing players Serie A last year:
Scanned 10 teams. At least 50 players missing.
Ligue 1: between 9 and 6 players scanned
Nantes only 5, Montpellier 4!!!
At least 90 players missing.
In Bundesliga als missing faces
Kovar, Puerta, Ryerson, Adamu, Lenz, Seimen,
Bedia, Ronnow, Kaufmann, Sarr, Fisher, Hauge, Wober, Aaronson, Mainka, Maloney, Cvancara, Reitz, Nsoki, Drexler, Berisha, Weiper, Vandenberg, Woltermade. Bauer
Also 60 players
Celtic and Rangers are almost fully scanned.
Ajax and River plate are missing 17 players.
Havo, Rensch, Godts, Sutalo, Ramaj, Kaplan, Taharovic, Colidio, Solari, Villagra, Boselli, Simon are all above 80 potential.
Mastantuono had 88 potential.
The net update need at least 200 new faces.
Not counting the Premier League and alot of faces who need update.
So yeah no Wrexham please.
Sporting Lissabon, As Roma, Napoli, Monza, Galatasaray, Fenerbace and Feynoord are also Maybe scanned.
So these need + 60 new faces
- @daviddt is scanning Wrexham a total waste of resorces?
After the documentary they have the largest international following in the EFL by far. They have supporters of other clubs that have been invested in their rise since the Hollywood take over, people who have watched them climb from conference up to the top end of league one. Would more people want to use Wrexham in career mode as a RTG or would they rather use a team like Luton that has a very small following but have been fully scanned. Is a team like Montpellier really more followed worldwide than Wrexham? I know I'd much rather take Wrexham from League one to the premiership with a fully scanned stadium and fully scanned Paul Mullin smashing in goals than do a career mode with Montpellier or Luton for instance.
It's rubbish that EA haven't added enough scans from all the leagues that they have recently scanned. We have loads missing from the premiership, from la liga, bundesliga, serie a and ligue 1. EA should focus on adding the missing ones but I'm definitely not against EA using their resorces scanning the EFL teams and stadiums as it's great for career mode and there's also lots of fans of those teams that would love to see them fully scanned. - @jtswfc93 EA golding back scans from the top league's makes no sense to me. It's good to see lower leafue players getting scans but i would say there are well over 100 scanned faces of players in top league's they have not put into the game. Even Matheus Nunes of Man City has he's scanned face in the mobile version since last year but we still don't have him on consoles. They added Scalvini, Hancko and a couple of others in FC 25 but they were bugged and they didn't correct it and just left them as generic faces in FC25. They don't have their priorities right when it comes to adding player scans with many high potential players they could add in but don't.
- @terryeriksen84 Very true. EA are pathetic and incompetent and only ever seem to do half a job but their incompetence adding content that should have already been added shouldn't stop the scanning of new content to be added in future updates.
EA need to make a lot of fixes on previous scanning sessions and missing content that has already been scanned but I'm also excited to see the new lower league content such as Wrexham and hopefully other lower league scans and stadiums @daviddtcompletely agree 👍
That cringey playtoy club shouldn’t be given the time of day let alone scanned. Utter waste.
Efforts / resources should be spent elsewhere.
There’s been years of useless scans over the years from the promoted pl teams.There’s only about 6-7 scans that will be any good from this seasons 3 promoted clubs…
The majority of us don’t want lower level uk scans. Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga, Ligue 1 and partner clubs should be the focus!
After all these are the leagues where pl clubs buy their players from 😉Agree and also no one asking about Metz, clermont abd Lorient!
- @scfatotboyland The same as last year serie A teams (Spezia, Sampdoria and Cremonese).
Only first league teams have probably contract - Any 1 play on pc i got a new pc and wanna try Fc on pc .
What are some good mods with more starheads etc . And is it easy to install ? We are now on mid November and 5 title updates and still no new starheads. EA are a joke. At this point last year we had around 100 new starheads post release.
Missing Serie A scans, missing Bundesliga scans, missing Ligue 1 scans. Could have at least added some of the missing scans before adding scans of new teams/players in the bigger updates
Seems we have to wait for faces in december.
Glad I didn't buy game yet.
That Refifa guy posted several video's butt always wrong.
Credit for him for finding the faces who probably will get update
Aaron Ramsdale is another example of strand hair making a scan look less realistic IMO. He looks odd. Same with Ait-Nouri.
At least scanned hair is photo accurate.

Refifa is total click bate 95% things he posts are just total rumours and he posts them as news
Ramsdale's hair changes from black to blonde in the game. Same with a few players. There seems to be issues with certain players hair since they started doing Strand hair. I don't care for it in all honesty.
anyone knows where to find list with female players with real faces? it's not on sofifa right?
Posting this here too, why does Zirkzee have a blue headband and when will EA get rid of it???
He doesn't ever wear a headband.
It looks ridiculous!
I posted about this error in March on the FC24 starhead thread.
It’s an unusable scan for me with the headband.
Whoever made the Zirzkee starhead made a mistake. He has a headband in game. He never wears a headband when playing.It looks ridiculous and even worse if he transfers to a team without any blue on their kit.
Seems logical he put the headband on during the capture session so they could capture his face without hair interfering with it. Other players have had to do this before like Elustondo below
There is a photo of him from the capture session with no headband but I can’t see an artist randomly adding a headband when creating the starhead since he doesn’t wear one IRL. Way too much work and for no rational reason.
Would imagine some players are scanned with and without headbands during the capture sessions and then the artists can render the hair. In this case it seems the artist created the starhead directly from the headband scan
I expect it will be fixed in the upcoming Holiday Update.You have more faith in EA than I do. If history is anything to go by we'll be seeing that headband for another few years yet.
- @careeragent006 you’re probably right. It’s a ridiculous error. honestly thought they would have remedied it this summer.
Anyone else have a problem with the game “sort of” crashing while playing a game and go into the menu to make a sub and then you get stuck in the menu. You can scroll and stuff but when you try to get back into to game nothing happens.
Maybe this belongs in another forum, but since I only play CM maybe you’ve guys caught it too…
How many held back Scans do they have at this point? 500+?
- @GenericFC Over the years there are many. Never understood why they held back face scans. It may be too time consuming for them and not a priority. Of they were to look on this thread they will see that face scans matter to a lot of us.
EA claims that the game is completely realistic, with over 19,000 players and 700+ clubs.
However, out of 19,000 players, only 3,000 players have their faces scanned, which is less than 20%.
How can you call it perfect realism when the other 16,000 or so players all have clay faces(Generic)?I think it's ridiculous, EA.
(I apologize for my poor English)
Seems to be a delay on this Christmas update
Those of you worried cranium would mean EAs stops focussing on real scans - I wonder if long time you’ll be right
