[Feature Request] Owner Career Mode – Manage the Club, Not the Team
I've been thinking about Career Mode for a long time, and I believe there's one major experience that's still missing. Right now, we can be a Manager or a Player, but we can't become the person who actually owns and runs the football club. Instead of controlling tactics, training, lineups, and matches, I would love a true Owner Career Mode where your job is to build a successful football club from the top down while leaving the football decisions to the manager you hire. The goal isn't to replace Manager Career. It would be a completely different way to experience EA SPORTS FC, focused on business, long-term planning, and club growth rather than controlling players on the pitch.
In Owner Career Mode, you are the club owner, not the manager.
You don't choose the starting XI.
You don't change tactics.
You don't control players during matches.
You don't take penalties or score goals.
Instead, your responsibilities include:
• Hiring and firing managers.
• Setting transfer and wage budgets.
• Approving or rejecting transfers.
• Negotiating sponsorships.
• Expanding the stadium.
• Investing in training facilities and youth development.
• Hiring staff such as scouts and medical teams.
• Managing the club's finances.
• Growing the club's value over many seasons.
When match day arrives, you simply watch the match from the owner's perspective or simulate it. The manager you hired makes all football decisions based on their own tactical style and philosophy.
