Leading a team that has fallen back to victory and win trophies is an exciting experience, and that’s what a lot of players are doing in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode.
If you’re also keen on investing FC 24 Coins and time just to turn around a club and return them to their former glory, then don’t miss this guide. Here we share 10 legendary clubs worth rebuilding and you can lead them to glory!
Marseille
Marseille is one of the most successful teams in French football, ranking third among teams with the most Ligue 1 trophies. However, their last league title was 15 years ago, and it’s time for them to overthrow Paris Saint-Germain’s dominance.
You can take over a French club and rebuild the team back to their former glory. This is not an extremely challenging task as you will find that they are still playing in the top division of French football and they have some excellent players in their line-up. Still, it will definitely take a long time to become better than Paris Saint-Germain.
Valencia
Valencia were once one of La Liga’s top teams and they have a rich history that includes multiple La Liga titles and UEFA Champions League finals.
They’ve dropped slightly down the rankings and are nowhere near the best teams in Spanish division, which are currently dominated by the likes of Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, and Atlético Madrid.
But with a decent starting budget and some outstanding talents, Valencia could become a rebuilding club in FC 24 Career Mode. You must start by winning La Liga title and then lead Spanish club to their first UEFA Champions League trophy.
Everton
Everton is the oldest club in England’s top flight and has a long history. However, they have suffered a sharp decline, with relegation battles continuing in the past few years.
In addition, they have now been docked 10 points for breaching profit and sustainability rules, putting them in another relegation battle in the 2023/2024 season.
The last time they won the title was in 1995. Merseyside hasn’t experienced glory for a long time. Now you can take matters into your own hands and rebuild Everton in EA FC 24. Luckily, if you work in Premier League, you’ll have access to some talented players such as Jordan Pickford, Beto, and more.
Genoa
Genoa is one of the oldest teams in Serie A, having won nine league titles and ranking fourth behind Juventus, AC Milan, and Inter Milan. Although all of their league victories date back more than a century, the glory they once held cannot be ignored.
Even in the modern era, they are a solid team. Nonetheless, financial problems caused considerable difficulties for the club. That’s why they are the ones you can try to take over in Career Mode.
Just a reminder, in your first season you should focus on surviving in Serie A before aiming to climb up the standings and eventually win the title.
Kaiserslautern
Kaiserslautern Football Club is a founding member of Bundesliga and regularly competes on the top flight. They have won German championship four times, with their last victory dating back to the 1997-98 season.
However, like the other clubs on this list, it has experienced a steep decline and currently sits in the second tier of German football.
Selecting some right players is very important and some players like Afeez Aremu, Ragnar Ache, and Tymoteusz Puchacz will help as they can grow to mid-70s, which is a good rating for a player.
Stade De Reims
Although Stade de Reims is undergoing a revival, it is far from its original self. They won the championship six times between 1948 and 1962. They also reached European Cup final twice, losing to Real Madrid both times.
Now, they are completely overshadowed by the best teams in Ligue 1, and a European spot is their potential hope. So you can manage Stade de Reims in FC 24, end this Paris Saint-Germain’s dominance in France and restore the club to its top status.
Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn Rovers is one of England’s oldest football teams, being founding members of the first Football League in 1888. They have been playing on the top flight for a long time, but not since 2012. With the team currently competing in EFL Championship, it may be a while before we see them again in Premier League.
It will be interesting to rebuild Blackburn Rovers, as they have a good squad with some good young players. Although it won’t be a huge amount of money, the financial aspects will undoubtedly become easier to manage when you move up to Premier League.
Torino
Besides Genoa, Torino is another Italian team with a rich history but also a far cry from their former selves. They have won seven league titles and are ranked fifth.
Currently, their local rivals, Juventus, have won the most titles. While it’s impossible to topple Juventus in trophy totals, taking on Torino will at least allow you to end their dominance.
Thankfully, you already have a solid foundation with a splendid set of players. You just have to replace some of the older players with younger players and just wait a few seasons before you can start competing for top spots.
Hamburger SV
Hamburger SV is a German football club that you should definitely try to manage in Career Mode. They have six league titles and are one of the few German teams to win UEFA Champions League. Nonetheless, they are now in the second division and looking to return to the top flight.
You won’t find too many great new stars in Hamburger SV’s squad, but one name you might recognize is Ludovit Reis, a player who was a member of FC Barcelona’s B team. After building a good player base, qualifying for European competitions only takes three to four seasons.
Saint-Étienne
Saint-Étienne is a dominant team in France, with most of their titles coming from the 1960s and 1970s. They have won the league title ten times. But at present, French team is still far from glory, and this declining giant is now suffering in the second division.
In Career Mode you need a few seasons to get them back to Ligue 1. Considering it won’t be easy to make them a championship contender, I suggest you try to sign young people with high potential to make the rebuilding easier.
Regardless, these are 10 legendary clubs that can be rebuilt and have high potential to win the championship again. So hurry up and try to take them back to the top!
