EA FC 25 (8 Teams Suitable For Career Mode Storyline): What Experience Will You Get By Choosing Them?

FC 25 often launches various promotions with different themes, which not only makes it easier than ever to get the player cards you want, but also gives you in-game items related to their real-life matches, which makes your EA Sports FC 25 experience more interesting.

But recently you may have had enough fun with these players in Ultimate Team or other competitive play, and have consumed a lot of FUT 25 coins for them, even if through promotions. So it’s time to get more interesting experiences and more coins by playing other modes!

Since the game has not been updated with much new content recently, exploring Career mode should be the best choice for playing EA FC 25 at present.

As you know, compared with the more prominent competitive nature of other modes, Career mode requires you to manage teams and players as a manager and go through various stories. Among them, Live Start Points even allow you to manage well-known teams based on real-world matches.

Based on this, we will recommend 8 teams suitable for you to experience their development in Career mode first.

1. Bradford City

• Best Players: Andy Cook, Brad Halliday, Richie Smallwood

In FC 25, the main goal of this former Premier League team in EFL League Two is to return to a higher level league. The tricky thing is that the overall player rating of the team is low, and it is difficult to do it by its own ability.

For this reason, if you choose this team, it is recommended that you focus on youth academy in the early stage of Career mode and make more reasonable game plans for the team while discovering reliable rookies.

2. Athletic Club

• Best Players: Unai Simon, Nico Williams, Iñaki Williams

Outside of Spain, this team is also known as Athletic Bilbao. This regional difference reflected in the name also hints at one of the main features of the club: only accepting players from Basque region of Spain (which includes parts of France).

This feature is applied to EA Sports FC 25 Career mode, which theoretically means that you have to build Athletic Club into a strong team that can compete with top teams such as Real Madrid with a very limited number of players available for recruitment. But interestingly, the game does not strictly prohibit you from signing non-Basque players for Athletic Bilbao as a manager.

3. Al Nassr

• Best Players: Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, Aymeric Laporte

As one team that has performed well in Saudi Pro League in recent years, Al Nassr’s most famous player should be Cristiano Ronaldo. However, since he is about to retire, you’d better find someone who can replace him in the youth academy.

Interestingly, Ronaldo’s son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. is actually training in Al Nassr youth academy. Although he is not old enough to participate in the official league, you should have the opportunity to see the father and son fight side by side in the practice.

4. Inter Miami

• Best Players: Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets

This is probably one of the most deadly football clubs in the world, not only because it was founded by David Beckham, but also because it attracted many former Barcelona players, such as Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba, and even Lionel Messi.

If you choose to run this team in Career mode, your first task is to ensure that the careers of these superstars are well concluded, and secondly, to build a team that can continue to help you win FIFA 25 coins after they retire.

It is worth noting that since David Beckham also founded another team called Salford City, you can loan the rookie players of that team to Inter Miami in the game to train them, to improve the efficiency of building new teams.

5. Paris FC

• Best Players: Maxime Lopez, Ilan Kebbal, Jean-Phillippe Krasso

Paris Saint-Germain, also from Paris, may be more well-known than Paris FC. After all, the former just won Champions League not long ago. So it is not easy to lead Paris FC to surpass this opponent, even in the game.

Therefore, you need to recruit French players who are more reliable with more development potential under the premise of limited coins, such as El Chadaille Bitshiabu from RB Leipzig, or Edan Diop from AS Monaco.

6. FC Schalke 04

• Best Players: Moussa Sylla, Kenan Karaman, Paul Seguin

In the past, the club was also one of the hot options for Bundesliga championship, and its strength was comparable to Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, but now all the glory is a thing of the past.

If you choose to manage this team, your main task is to strengthen the team and regain the glory of FC Schalke 04. Compared with reality, the advantage of playing EA FC 25 is that you can find back those players who have left but have contributed to the team.

7. Blackburn Rovers

• Best Players: Lewis Travis, Sondre Tronstad, Callum Brittain

Although from different regions, Blackburn Rovers faces a similar dilemma as FC Schalke 04. This team, which won Premier League in 1994/95 season, has not even entered Premier League for a long time.

So if you choose this team, the main task is still to lead everyone to regain glory. The breakthrough point is that Alan Shearer was once the club’s most reliable shooter. If you can find someone to replace him, all troubles will be solved.

8. Birmingham City

• Best Players: Paik Seung-ho, Alex Cochrane, Christoph Klarer

Compared to the previous veteran teams, Birmingham City has shown the characteristics of a “rising star” in many aspects. Although the performance in the past few seasons was not satisfactory, under the leadership of NFL star Tom Brady, Birmingham City is fully expected to become one of the top clubs in Europe.

The current lineup of the club in the game is strong enough to compete for English League One championship. If the club successfully returns to the top league, you’d better consume coins to introduce more new and reliable players.

In short, no matter which team you choose to manage in Career mode and understand their storyline, you must make due efforts as a manager to lead everyone to success!
