Feature Suggestion

 Player Career → Manager Career Continuation

I would like to suggest a feature for Career Mode in EA SPORTS FC 28

When a player finishes their Player Career and retires, I would like to be able to continue playing as the same character, but as a manager.

For example:

  • I start a Player Career with a created player.
  • I play for many seasons, develop my player, win trophies and build a career history.
  • When my player retires, instead of ending the save, I can choose “Continue as Manager.”
  • My retired player becomes a manager in the same Career Mode save.
  • I could receive job offers from clubs or choose an available managerial position.
  • My player’s achievements, trophies, statistics and reputation would remain part of their history.
  • The manager could potentially have a unique biography showing their previous playing career.

This would make Career Mode feel much more realistic and connected. It would allow players to create a full football story: young player → professional career → retirement → manager career → potentially legendary manager.

It would also make Player Career much more meaningful because retirement would not have to be the end of the story.

I think this could be one of the best additions to Career Mode and would give players a reason to stay invested in the same save for many more seasons.

Thank you for considering this idea!

    Hey Rolandass​ 

    Thanks for taking the time to lay this out in so much detail.

    There’s nothing I can confirm regarding future Career Mode features, but I appreciate you sharing the suggestion and the examples of how you’d like it to work.
