That&#8217;s because you can start whenever you want, as many times as you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No matter who you&#8217;re managing the premise and aim of Manager Career &#8212; as it&#8217;s now called &#8212; remains the same. Winning the league and continental trophies, no matter where you start or who you manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But which team do you want to take to glory? There are a lot of options, especially with the introduction of Live Challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to go down a more traditional route, though, we&#8217;ve got you covered. We&#8217;ve picked nine different clubs for you to take charge of in Manager Career at varying levels of difficulties.

But they have never managed to retain their title. Recently that hasn&#8217;t been a problem specific to Napoli. The Scudetto hasn&#8217;t been retained since 2019-20, when Juventus won the last of their nine-straight titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that&#8217;s your job, to successfully defend the Serie A title. Longer-term, though, there&#8217;s also the goal of winning the Champions League for the first time in Napoli&#8217;s history &#8212; adding to their sole Uefa Cup success in 1988-89.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kevin De Bruyne stands out for the team, but he won&#8217;t have long left on his career. And even Scott McTominay isn&#8217;t the youngest.

So that&#8217;s your task. Can you be the one to get over the line? To do what Emma Hayes and Sonia Bompastor have failed to do. That&#8217;ll probably include beating Barcelona at some point, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea have a lot of good players for you to call upon, both for now and for the future. Aggie Beever-Jones has the potential to grow to 88 Overall, while Lauren James is a star.

But Kaiserslautern are now in the 2. Bundesliga, taking away one step on the main quest. Your task is to lead Kaiserslautern back to Bundesliga glory, taking them to the title for the first time since 1998. Only seven teams have won the Bundesliga more than Kaiserslautern&#8217;s four, but they&#8217;ve been out of the top flight since 2012. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kaiserslautern don&#8217;t have any stars on their cards at the start, so you will have to build from the ground up if you want to challenge.

They have been terribly mismanaged in the real world and it&#8217;s carried over slightly to EAFC. They are still 2.5 stars and have a bit of money to work with. So we&#8217;re not dealing with a Bolton Wanderers situation from a few years ago. But they have no real squad depth, relying a lot of youth outside of the starting XI. And you can&#8217;t really do much with their budget, even if it isn&#8217;t \u00a30. So your task is to first keep them in the Championship before rising up the ranks to eventually conquer England. Now, the Owls don&#8217;t have a points deduction on Manager Career &#8212; but you can add one in to really make the challenge realistic, and that much tougher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joel Ndala is a young player with a lot of potential, but unfortunately you won&#8217;t really reap the rewards as he&#8217;s on loan from Manchester City. And will likely be out of your budget come the summer of 2026. But you will need to rely on loans a lot to start off with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fc-andorra\">FC Andorra<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"EAFC 26 Best Career Mode challenges: FC Andorra\" class=\"wp-image-1432792\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-356x200.jpg 356w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-107x60.jpg 107w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/10\/11142753\/Andorra-FC-EAFC-26-40x23.jpg 40w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>League: <\/strong>La Liga Hypermotion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rating: <\/strong>2.5 stars<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Transfer budget: <\/strong>\u00a31.27m<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Club worth: <\/strong>\u00a32.15m<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Main challenge: <\/strong>Win the Champions League<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andorra&#8217;s national team are ranked 172nd in the world, so fans aren&#8217;t really going to see success.

Andorra FC are in Spain&#8217;s second division and are the country&#8217;s best chance of success. So that&#8217;s your task. First take them to La Liga, then qualify for the Champions League and win it. It&#8217;s as close to Football Manager&#8217;s San Marino challenge as you can get in EAFC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andorra FC have a lot of players on loan, which isn&#8217;t helpful, so there&#8217;s work to be done.

They lasted just two seasons before getting relegated and haven&#8217;t been back since. In fact, they&#8217;ve been as low as the National League. Oldham are back in EAFC 26, gaining promotion from the Nations League last season. They weren&#8217;t fancied to do anything in the real world, though have pulled off a shock mid-table finish. And that&#8217;s what you want to replicate. The goal is to first establish yourself in League Two, before climbing up the ranks and sealing a return to the Premier League. Then, what can you do there?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are no stars or potential gems in the starting Oldham team, with their three players with potential Overalls higher than 70 all on loan. That&#8217;s what makes this challenge even harder. You&#8217;re starting with nothing, and don&#8217;t have much money to throw around in the early seasons. Have you got what it takes?<\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re well into 2026, and EA Sports FC 26 is still going.
