Bug Report] Player Career Mode retirement forces Manager Career currency to USD (Pounds / Sterling reset)
Platform: PS5
Game Title: EA Sports FC 27
Mode Affected: Player Career Mode / Transition to Manager Career
Bug Description:
When retiring a creation/real player in Player Career Mode to transition into Manager Career Mode, the currency automatically defaults to US Dollars ($). This happens even if the initial setup settings, general game settings, and main menu preferences are strictly set to British Pounds (£ / Sterling).
Because Career Mode locks currency settings upon save initialization, there is no in-game setting to revert it back to Sterling once the manager transition takes place. This bug was present in EA FC 26 and has carried over unaddressed into EA FC 27.
Steps to Reproduce:
Set global menu currency settings to British Pounds (£ / Sterling).
Start a new Player Career Mode save.
Go to the "My Player" / Actions tab and select Retire.
Accept a management job offer to transition into Manager Career Mode.
View squad values, transfer budgets, or contract negotiations—the currency permanently changes to US Dollars ($).
Expected Result:
The manager save should retain the global or initial save currency setting (£ / Sterling). Alternatively, players should be given the Manager Career setup screen upon retirement to select their preferred currency and settings.
Actual Result:
The game hard codes the transition state to USD ($) without giving the user a prompt to keep their original currency preference.
Please log this with the UI / Career Mode dev team for an upcoming title update patch.
