Career Mode Starhead Suggestion Thread
Starheads are a massive part of the fifa experience. The Starhead Thread is annually the biggest thread on this entire board and scanned players have a significant importance for a large percentage of career mode players due to the realism that it brings.
Recently I brought up the idea of starting a thread in this section to have a specific place for ideas without having to clog up the original thread, sometimes to the annoyance of users.
Please use this thread to enquire and/or answer any queries with appropriate players for those in need.

Preferably after a CDM, CM to replace Pogba, ST and RB? Throw a LW/RW in there too 🤣
And im not really keen on the usual pricey signings like Haaland/Rice etc..
Personally, I'd recommend looking at Fabian Ruiz. I bought him on a whim on my main save last year and he was fantastic. Slower but very complete. Left footed so a bit different but ended up being ridiculously clutch for me with big goals in big games!
They would be the three I'd go for, based on playmaking skills but also a defensive presence too.
A few ideas, don't know if they match your preferences:
CDM: Boubacar Kamara, Marseille.
CM(PP): James Ward-Prowse, Southampton. Or Jacob Ramsey, Aston Villa.
RB: Sergiño Dest, Barcelona (seems to be surplus there). Or Mukiele, Red Bull (more defensive option).
RW: Pedro Goncalves, Sporting (the new Bruno). Or Noni Madueke, PSV.
ST: Tammy Abraham, Roma. Or Patrick Schick, Leverkusen/Andre Silva, Red Bull.
Edit: The RB could also be Denzel Dumfries from Inter. He was brilliant at the Euros and doesn't seem to have hit the ground running in Serie A. Perhaps he could be the attacking right back that Man United need.
I'm actually doing a Man United rebuild myself, throwing away a bunch of big names before the start and going with budget signings at first. Feel free to check it out here:

Nkunku has a decent generic. Might sign him instead….
Fabinho-Thiago
Nkunku
Mane-Jota-Salah
Or
Fabinho
Thiago-Bellingham
Firmino
Salah-Mane
2nd String lineup
Henderson
Keita-Jones
Bowen-Solanke-Diaz
All players interchanging and sh*t but yeah man proper enjoying it. Shame about the Nunez face, such a star in the making, gonna have to sell the kid
I signed him in my CM with a create a club and he was ridiculously good, went beyond 93 I think
Good to know! Just signed him in my Man United save!
Might have to sign him 👀
Will do! I'm not fully invested in it yet though, still keeping my West Brom save on wheels. But after that I'll kick off for real with the other.
This is all in my first season. The progression of expectations needs to have much more of a curve than the current sharp increases.
The obvious choice would be Madueke. But if you're like me ans don't like signing the obvious, I'd recommend Raphinha. I think he suits Liverpools style of play massively.
You could potentially also look at Oyarzabal. Bit more established but I get Luis Garcia vibes from that one. Potentially Zaniolo but not sure how quick he is. Leon Bailey is another.
And a total curveball: Alphonso Davies. Would be expensive but you can retrain him as a RW and working on his attacking skills. I think he'd slowly become an absolute gem in that position.
Let me know how you get on
Nice one Reussssssyyyyyy
Am in 2025 and have 200m to spend lol but Chiesa is another one I might look into
Madueke I’m going to sign though as my #9 in game he was unreal in my Berlin CM
I promised a feedback regarding Cucho Hernández, whom I've signed in my Man United save.
He's a beast, to be honest, nothing less. He is fast, strong and a great finisher. I can play him wide or centrally, he always just seems to deliver. He's been great in tight areas as well, seems like a great dribbler. He hasn't grown that much yet though, but that's just down to me deliberately restricting his game-time to avoid him growing to a 90+ OVR within a season or two. But he does outshine some of my other forwards, despite them boasting a higher OVR and greater value.
To anyone reading this, get him snappppped up
