Anyone who plays in EA Sports FC 24 with outdated squads may ask themselves, why doesn’t the squad update work and how can you update the squads manually? In the new FC 24, the message keeps popping up asking whether you want to update the squad data. If you confirm this with “Yes”, the squad update will be downloaded and installed directly in the game. But what should you do if the update doesn’t work or isn’t displayed? In this short guide we show how you can update the squad manually at any time.
Install squad update in EA FC 24
The squad update is displayed, among other things, when creating a new career or when starting other games. If this is not the case for whatever reason, you can carry out the update manually at any time and it works as follows.
- The first step is of course to start EA Sports FC 24 and then open the “Customize” menu in the main menu at the top left using the gear symbol.
- In the customize menu you then select the menu item “Edit Teams” at the bottom left and can then “Download updates” on the right.
- Now the same download dialog for the squad update appears, which, as mentioned above, is displayed again and again, including when starting a new career as a player or coach.
If you have already downloaded and installed the latest squad update for FC 24, the window will only appear saying “There are no updates available at the moment, please try again later”. You can always carry out and download the squad update manually.
