How does becoming a national coach work in FIFA 23 career mode? Where can you apply to coach a national team? One or two players in the new FIFA part who have chosen the path of a coaching career will perhaps be concerned with these questions. As in the previous FIFA parts, in FIFA 23 career mode you can not only train individual teams, but in addition to normal league operations, you can also take a trip to the national teams. In this short guide we show how you can become a national coach.
Training national team
In order to become a national coach in FIFA 23 in addition to being a club coach, you don’t actually have to do much other than continue playing the normal season and train the team as successfully as possible. After about half of the season you often receive a message with a job offer as a national coach. The job offer can be found normally in the inbox in the career mode menu. Here you can then decide whether you want to become a coach for the national team shown or not. If you reject the job offer as a national coach, you can often receive a new offer in the same season or next season at the latest (if there are no other offers already in your inbox). As soon as you have decided on a national team, you can switch to the national coach view in the career mode menu by pressing the left analog stick.
Select national team
In connection with the national coaching career in FIFA 23, the question often arises: how can you actually select a specific national team? Can you say somewhere that you want to become the national coach of country XY? The short answer here is, no, unfortunately it doesn’t work like in the previous FIFA parts. The nationality of the coach apparently doesn’t matter and has no influence on the job offer you get as a prospective national coach. If you really want to train a specific national team, you should save before accepting the job offer and then simply reload the save if it is not the national team you would like to train. The selection appears to be random.
