Instead, we’re looking at wonderkids that might be under the radar and are viable for a whole range of clubs, not just the big boys with bottomless purses. It’s all well and good signing the likes of Højlund and Mudryk, but you won’t find any of those players here. There’s something about scouting a wonderkid and growing them over many years in these games that’s almost second to none, especially when you’re able to find a really underrated gem for next to nothing and slowly cultivate their talents over many years.
While it’s not for everyone, you have to appreciate the sheer breadth of modes available in EA FC 24, with even those who don’t like competitive multiplayer catered to with the ability to scout the next big thing in football with the best cheap wonderkids as part of Career Mode. While plenty has changed with the world’s most popular football game this year, most importantly the fact that it’s no longer called FIFA, EA Sports FC 24 is still sticking to the same core principles and content that have earned it endless fans year on year.
