Career Mode: Financial bug causes £3.7B budget to become £0 next season
Description:
Hello EA,
I am experiencing a serious financial calculation issue in EA SPORTS FC 26 Manager Career Mode.
At the end of the season, the financial figures shown in my club’s financial summary are clearly inconsistent.
Financial figures
- Current transfer budget: £3,738,561,710
- Revenue/Income: approximately £1.68 billion
- Expenses: approximately £22.62 million
- Profit/Revenue figure shown by the game: approximately -£1.7 billion
- Prize money: approximately £185 million
- Profit from player sales: approximately £2.16 billion
The main problem is that the game reports approximately -£1.7 billion in profit/revenue, despite showing approximately £1.68 billion in income and only £22.62 million in expenses.
These figures do not mathematically correspond.
Furthermore, the club has a current transfer budget of £3.738 billion, but when advancing to the next season, the available transfer budget becomes £0.
Expected result
The financial results and the next season’s transfer budget should be calculated consistently from the club’s actual income, expenses, player sales and prize money.
In particular, I would not expect a club with a current budget of approximately £3.74 billion and positive financial activity to automatically start the next season with £0 without an explanation.
Actual result
The game displays:
- Income: £1.68B
- Expenses: £22.62M
- Profit/revenue figure: approximately -£1.7B
- Current budget: £3.738B
- Next season’s budget: £0
The financial figures appear to be incorrectly calculated or incorrectly carried over when the season changes.
Additional information
A significant portion of the club’s income came from player transfers. The club generated approximately £2.16 billion in profit from player sales, while prize money was approximately £185 million.
The issue appears to occur during the transition from one season to the next.
I would appreciate it if the development team could investigate the financial calculation and season rollover system in Manager Career Mode.
Thank you.
