One of the long-standing complaints regarding the FIFA franchise has been that Career Mode has lacked the same major improvements or features that have gone into other game modes, such as FIFA Ultimate Team. At Gamescom 2015, the FIFA team has announced some significant new features and improvements coming to FIFA 16's Career Mode.

Pre-season Tournaments allow your squad to play in three of nine available tournaments and are designed to let you work on your team tactics and line-ups before the start of the regular season. The prize purse from these tournaments gets allocated to your transfer budget for the upcoming season.

Player Training - Each week, select up to five squad players to train from a number of training drills, each focused on developing specific attributes. Improve your starting line-up or build up youth players to increase transfer values.
