[BUG REPORT] Club Transfers – Duplicate Players After Manual Transfer

Summary

There is a serious bug in Club Transfers. Certain players cannot be transferred correctly because moving them creates duplicate versions of the same player. After the transfer, the player appears on both teams at the same time.

Platform

- Platform: (PC / PlayStation 5 / Xbox Series X|S)

- Game: EA SPORTS FC 26

- Mode: Club Transfers

Bug Description

When manually transferring certain players in Club Transfers, the transfer does not work correctly. Instead of moving the player from one club to another, the game creates a duplicate player.

For example:

- Cole Palmer

- Reece James

- Moises Caicedo

- Harry Kane

- Jude Bellingham

- Michael Olise

After the transfer, the player remains at the original club while another copy appears at the destination club. This results in the same player existing on two different teams.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Club Transfers.

2. Select one of the affected players.

3. Transfer the player to another club.

4. Save the transfer.

5. Check both clubs.

Expected Result

The player should be removed from the original club and appear only in the new club.

Actual Result

The player remains in the original club, and another copy appears in the new club, creating duplicate players.

Frequency

100% (Every time)

Impact

This bug prevents players from editing squads correctly and makes Club Transfers unreliable. It also affects Career Mode preparation and custom squad creation.

Request to EA

Please investigate and fix the Club Transfers duplicate player bug as soon as possible. Players should only exist on one team after a transfer, not on both teams simultaneously.
