Hi,

My Son has just started playing fifa 21 on nintendo swtich and is playing ultimate squad, he has played a few matches but now when he goes to play a match a message appears saying his team is eligible, can anyone help to fix this issue ?

@woolley1 it's probably saying the team is not eligible. Could that be the case?

Two things can be the case:
1) one or more players in the team (could be both starting eleven and substitutes) aren't eligible, probably because of an injury or lack of contract
2) he's trying to participate in a tournament with special rules, e.g. a 'bronze only' cup in which you're only allowed bronze players or a single league cup, where all your players should play in the same league for their regular team.

Since your kid is at the beginning of the game, my first guess would be that some of his players have ran out of contract. A quick Google will give you plenty of basic insight in how this mechanic works.

Let me know if this helps.

@toiletduck thanks for the reply

1- we have checked all players are in contract and are fit.

2- it doesn't look like he is trying to play in a special rules tournament just a div 9 league season, he has played a couple of matches yesterday and today he cant play.

The message that appears when he goes to play a game is' Your squad is eligible to play. Do you want to advance, edit or go back ?'

@woolley1 so what's the problem then? You should be able to pick 'Advance' and play?

@toiletduck i select advance which takes me to side select which i advance, this then shows me as the away team but the home team does not show badge, but i still advance and select the kit.

The screen then shows my team listed on the right as the away team but there is no home players listed on the left. I still advance to play match, but then the following message appears 'The software was closed because an error occurred. I click ok and it closes the software and takes me back to the nintendo homepage.

Any ideas why this happens ?

@woolley1 no idea then, sorry. Maybe you can reinstall the software/update? Sounds like a software error.
