@jxntwxI just had the same problem now. I am playing FIFA 20, made a squad since I bought less than a week back, this is the squad I played with and been building up, I don't have any concept players or loan players that I know off in my team, nor I remember that I created it as a concept team. Yesterday I Was playing with the same team and today after the update it became a concept team, not sure what's up. Any help will be appreciated. In my club house I have 2 loan players but they are not in the squad. All my players are gold but one is silver
I had this same problem, I kept doing SBCs and when it takes a player from your squad, Including bench and reserves, it replaces them with a concept player (they will look like a light blue card). When you highlight them you will be able to remove from squad. Once removed, the squad will then go back to active.
Head coach Pia Sundhage released the roster of 23 players who are headed to the tournament in search of the team's first star. Forward Marta will make her sixth appearance at a World Cup when Brazil starts against Panama in Group F on 24 July.
The provisional list of the 23 players called up to the Brazilian squad for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup was announced on Tuesday (27 June). Three substitute footballers headed to the tournament co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand were also named.
Among the players hoping to change that is forward Marta, the highest scorer ever in the tournament, including the Men's FIFA World Cup. The 2023 edition of the World Cup will mark the 37-year-old's sixth participation in the event.
Another former Dortmund man, Ginter was a Freiburg player when he was called into Joachim Lw's finals squad. At 20, the centre-back was the youngest player in Germany's set-up but didn't make an appearance at the tournament. Four days after the final, he signed for BVB before switching Borussias to Mnchengladbach three years later. After five years and more than 150 appearances, he returned home to Freiburg in summer 2022, bringing his experience of 46 senior international caps, including the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup.
Hummels has enjoyed a trophy-laden career that includes five Bundesliga titles across numerous spells at Bayern and Dortmund, plus the 2014 triumph in Brazil, where he was first-choice centre-back throughout and also scored the winning goal in the quarter-final against France. The last of his 76 caps came at UEFA Euro 2020, having made his senior debut a decade earlier. The 34-year-old is currently still going strong for BVB, now in his 17th Bundesliga campaign with well over 400 competitive appearances in black and yellow.
The ying to Bastian Schweinsteiger's yang in central midfield for Lw, Khedira was a key cog in Germany's machine, featuring in five of the team's seven games in Brazil. The former Stuttgart midfielder scored Germany's fifth against the hosts in the semis, before making way for Julian Draxler in the second half. The title win crowned a memorable summer for the then 27-year-old, who lifted the Champions League trophy with Real Madrid just a couple of months earlier. He moved on to Juventus in summer 2015, winning back-to-back league and cup doubles with the Italian giants. After five years in Serie A, Khedira spent six months at Hertha Berlin before hanging up his boots in June 2021. He is now an advisor at Stuttgart and a pundit for ARD.
Third in Germany's all-time list of most-capped players, Podolski earned just two of his 130 caps in Brazil, in the group games against Portugal and USA. Famed for his thunderous left foot, the former Cologne and Bayern star was a highly valued (and popular) member of Germany's squad despite his limited minutes on the pitch, thanks to his experience and laid-back, jovial demeanour. 'Poldi' had a third and final season at Arsenal after Brazil 2014 and has had a nomadic career path ever since, taking in stints in Italy (Inter Milan), Turkey (Galatasaray, Antalyaspor), Japan (Vissel Kobe) and now Poland (Gornik Zabrze), where the now 37-year-old has been since summer 2021. But he still has strong links to his hometown of Cologne, including a popular kebab shop.
Zieler was - and still is - regarded as a reliable pair of hands in goal. The former Manchester United goalkeeper had been a regular in Germany's squads since making his debut in a friendly against Ukraine in 2011, but was an unused substitute throughout the 2014 World Cup. He had two more seasons at Hannover after Brazil before a short-lived spell in the Premier League with Leicester City. Zieler, who was last called up to the national team in 2015, returned to Germany in 2017 with Stuttgart. He his now back at Hannover and is the team's first-choice custodian in Bundesliga 2.
13. Thomas Mller
A German famed for his sense of humour and laid-back manner? Don't be fooled by Mller's off-field charisma, though; he's as ruthless as they come when he steps onto a football pitch. Mller scored five times at Brazil 2014, taking his career World Cup total to 10, and the one-club man is still going strong at Bayern. The Bundesliga's top assist provider in both of the past two seasons, Mller remains one of the most respected - and elusive - attackers in the game.
Like Ginter, Draxler was just 20 when he joined up with Germany's all-conquering squad in 2014, having already had four seasons of Bundesliga football by that stage. The Schalke youth academy product came on a substitute as the eventual winners overwhelmed Brazil in Belo Horizonte while he was an unused sub in the showpiece against Argentina five days later. Draxler moved on to Wolfsburg ahead of the 2015/16 season before joining Paris Saint-Germain in January 2017. He played a big part in his nation's Euro 2016 semi-final run and captained Germany to Confederations Cup glory in 2017. Draxler has been a regular member of the national team's squads ever since, although in a more peripheral role. The 29-year-old earned the most recent of his 58 caps in March 2022 in a friendly against the Netherlands. He left PSG for Benfica in summer 2022.
On a roll of honour that read Fritz Walter (1954), Franz Beckenbauer (1974) and Lothar Matthus (1990), the name Philipp Lahm was added in 2014. The Bayern great raised the trophy as captain of his country, just like those legendary players did before him. Lahm completed the most passes in Brazil, his tally standing at an immense 562, while his two assists in the semi-final win against Brazil added even more gloss. The former full-back turned defensive midfielder, once hailed by erstwhile Bayern tactician Pep Guardiola as the "most intelligent player I've ever coached", retired from the game in 2017 following 500 games and 21 titles. He is currently an ambassador for Germany's UEFA Euro 2024 bid and a consultant for Stuttgart.
The central defender played alongside Hummels for the opening four games of World Cup 2014 before Boateng was brought in from a wide position to start both the semi-final and the final. At 6'6", the ex-Hannover and Bremen colossus - affectionately known as the BFG - hung up his international boots after the tournament, with some 104 caps to reminisce upon. He retired as a player altogether in 2018 following seven seasons at Arsenal, where he won the FA Cup three times, and is now in charge of the Gunners' youth academy.
Already regarded as one of the finest midfielders in the game at the start of Brazil 2014, Kroos was well and truly a global star by the end of it. The technically gifted playmaker, who enjoyed a two-year loan spell at Bayer Leverkusen from Bayern from 2008 to 2010, had a fantastic tournament in central midfield in Brazil, starting every game and scoring twice in the statement 7-1 win against the hosts. He left Bayern for Real Madrid following the tournament, where he has remained ever since, winning the Champions League four more times since his 2013 success with Bayern.
Germany's Mr. Versatile at the finals, Boateng was used on the right of defence and at centre-back and was another of those who played a part in all seven matches, group stage to final. The Berlin native went on to fill his trophy cabinet further at Bayern, where he spent 10 seasons in total before joining Lyon in summer 2021. Now 34, he earned the last of his 76 Germany caps in a UEFA Nations League defeat by the Netherlands in October 2018.
Mustafi was still at the start of his career when the stars aligned for him. Just 22 at the time, he made his Germany debut in May 2014 after an impressive season at Sampdoria. He was cut from Lw's original World Cup squad but was later recalled as the chief beneficiary of Marco Reus' misfortune (more on that below). He took to the pitch three times in Brazil before joining Valencia after the tournament. Mustafi subsequently had spells at Arsenal and Schalke, and now laces his boots in Spain for Levante. He won the last of his 20 Germany caps in October 2017.
The second-oldest player in the squad at 33, Weidenfeller was back-up to Neuer throughout the tournament but never actually took to the pitch in Brazil. He won the first of just five Germany caps in November 2013, with his final appearance coming against Gibraltar in a European Championship qualifier in June 2015. The long-standing Dortmund goalkeeper won two Bundesliga titles and two DFB Cups during his 16 uninterrupted years at the club, even if 2014/15 was his last campaign as first-choice custodian following the arrival of Roman Brki. He hung up his gloves for good at the end of 2017/18 and is now part of Dortmund's Legends network as well as working as a pundit for German channel RTL.
Like Mustafi, Kramer was something of a surprise inclusion in the final squad, having only made his senior debut a month earlier. Just 23 at the time, Kramer had enjoyed an impressive debut Bundesliga campaign with Borussia Mnchengladbach, scoring three times in 33 appearances in central midfield after originally joining on loan from Leverkusen. Although he did not feature at all in the group stage in Brazil, he did play against both Algeria (last 16) and France (quarter-finals) and was a surprise starter in the final against Argentina after Khedira withdrew in the warm-up through injury. He only lasted half an hour of that match, however, before being substituted off for Andre Schrrle due to concussion after asking the referee: "Is this the World Cup final?". Kramer remains a key player for Gladbach, where he is now in his ninth season, and is a highly regarded pundit for Germany TV channel ZDF for international games.
