EA SPORTS FC 26 — Career Mode: No FK/PK development?

Platform: PS5
Game version / Build: v1.03
Mode: Career Mode — Manager
Summary: There is no option in Player Development plans to train or increase Free Kick Accuracy (FK) or Penalty Accuracy (PK). Players’ FK/PK remain constant across seasons and do not improve via development plans.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start a Manager Career
  2. Create or load squad where attackers have average PK & FK stats.
  3. Open Player Development / Training plans — check available skills to train (no FK/PK option).
  4. Play 1–3 seasons (auto-sim or manual) — FK/PK do not rise via development plans even when other attributes grow.


Expected result: Development plans should allow training plans that increase FK/PK stats different than the "balanced" plan
Actual result: FK/PK are not available in any plan and do not increase, even across many seasons.
Evidence: YouTube clip: https://youtu.be/MNzHbFEpeIA (showing menus & stats).
Frequency: 100%
Additional info: It's been an ongoing missing feature since FC 25.
Severity: Gameplay — core feature missing for realism / immersion.

    yeahhhh, can't believe they didn't fix this... absolutely needs to be updated. balanced development absolutely should not be the only option for improving FK/PK
