On the complete other end of the spectrum to the Newcastle takeover challenge is the academy FC 24 Coins players challenge. Ideal for clubs with a financially tight owner, this challenge bans players from making incoming transfers and challenges them to only sign players by promoting them from their youth system.
FC 24 's Career Mode lets players hire youth scouts, sign youth players to their academy, and then promote the best ones to their first team. With high-quality scouts, a well-thought-out plan, and plenty of patience, players can potentially build a title-winning team using only homegrown talent.
Barcelona is currently going through one of its worst periods in recent memory. The club reportedly has an astonishing debt of $1.56 billion, which is being blamed on the club's former president, Josep Maria Bartomeu.
The club's debt has caused a plethora of issues to Barcelona, with the departure of Lionel Messi being the most prominent. So, for those wanting to take the club back to its days of dominating the sport, the challenge of rebuilding Barcelona and taking them back to the heights of world football provides an intruding challenge.
Barcelona isn't the only team in need of a rebuild, as former Premier League mainstays, Sunderland, are still in League One following their brutal double relegation, which was partially documented in the popular Netflix series Sunderland 'Til I Die. To make matters worse for the northern club, their biggest rivals, Newcastle, have just become the richest club in the world. Suffice to say, Sunderland is in desperate need of some success.
Rebuilding Sunderland won't be easy, but taking the League One club back into the Premier League would be a fantastic achievement, and a buy Fut Coins victory over Newcastle would top it off.
