Hi everyone, with regard to the FIFA 21 save issues, we understand how frustrating this situation can be. We are aware of the issue with career saved games. We have been in touch with EA, who are in the process of rolling out a fix next week. We'll confirm an exact date as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience. If further assistance for FIFA is needed, I kindly suggest contacting EA directly.
Here's the link to the Reddit discussion of this bug.

Apparently, someone was able to fix this issue after playing a bit with second account and family share feature.
@ChrisFromGoogle Any updates on this please ?
This is getting really frustrating. We are all awaiting some feedback from your side about the progress and status to solve this issue. Google never has any issue with collecting my money, not for the monthly subscription fee neither for this one time purchase for Fifa21. But when we ask for support on a technical issue, it seems no feedback can be provided from the Stadia Support team.
In the meantime, it's impossible to play this game. Unable to load any previous progress or to save the progress you make in this game.
I was always a big supporter and defender of the Stadia platform, the technical innovations it provides and the great experience it can deliver to any random device in your house. But I'm afraid that if the support on it will not get any better, frustrations of the users will only get bigger. If you are delivering a cloud service with a subscription fee, you should also take care of your paying customers, or you will loose them in the end...
same issue here

What is the status around it? This seems to be 10+ days known issue. Some of the functionalities like career are unbearable without proper way to save.
In Europe its already holiday season and time for moderate-intense gaming but its not as great to start every new day from the start.
FYI, not sure about EA/Stadia SLAs but this is a joke. Saving is most crucial feature of any game.
This is ridiculous. I think this is the last game I've bought from Stadia and I'm going to cancel my subscription.
I'll stick with my good old Xbox for Fifa in the future.
Noticed a stadia update happened earlier this morning. Anything fixed yet?
Nope, nothing has changed so far. I'm still unable to save anything.
The problem still exists, but does anyone at Stadia even care?
You don't get any feedback and you don't have the impression that it is being worked on.
Very disappointing because you can't play the game like that.
Well I don't think it is a issue of not caring. ![]()
It has to be fixed together with EA.
Unfortunately there is still no update about the progress but I am sure they are working on it. ![]()
Agreed. As evidenced by the help link EA sends you to and there is nothing about Stadia on that page. Only other platforms. https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/problems-playing-online/
Still no fix...
Still an issue as of 4/1/21, can't save Player Career
This became an issue for me yesterday, very disappointing
inadmissible!!! On paye pourquoi ? Si l’on ne peut sauvegarder, FIFA n’a aucun intérêt. Je pense que je vais résilier rapidement. Cela fait 1 mois que je rencontre le problème et aucune communication de Google !!!
Yeah, happened to me one time:
I fixed it by completely exiting the game and than come back and tried it again. After restarting it worked again.
Hi there,
I am having saving problem right now. Connection went bad and I had to restart the game. After that I lost all my saves. Very pissed at the moment. Hopefully they will sort it out

I have been playing perfectly for three weeks.
But yesterday, when I opened the game, the game worked as if it was the first time. The exhibition game, the user licence, etc.
ALL my progress was lost.
I can't create a new profile and so the game can't be used.
I am very disappointed and very pissed off.
I hope they fix it soon and I CAN HAVE ALL MY PROGRESS AGAIN.
Man welcome on board. I keep checking forum etc but they haven’t solve the problem. I text both stadia and EA support and they are working on. The only solution is chat with them everyday and show we are pissed
Thanks!!
We have to keep up the pressure on support every day.
Cheer up!

This is getting ridiculous now, as are the copy and paste responses from Google and EA when I log it with them. It's been over a week since all my saved data vanished, frustratingly I was leading Blackpool to league 1 glory in career mode, I'd spent hours assembling a team of champions, and it's gone, all gone.
Sadly no one seems to be taking responsibility, Google say log it with EA, and EA say log it with Google. I've logged it with both and have no update. Both presumably profited when I purchased it so both need to sort this mess out, as the game is unplayable at present.
Do you think that DELETED data will be recovered???
I've contacted EA.
They do not provide stadia support.
They say that saved data is google's duty ![]()
Hi!.
is the fix rolled out?
Regards
No, mate.
I guess, we will first get anouncement for that day x ... it doesnt make fun anymore to start fifa then doing all the setup things..., not naming all the game modes that are locked because no progress is saved except Online Modes of FUT and Volta.
This is just ridiculous , how can you possibly charge for a product that just doesent work in any way, you should be refunding everyone
Thanks for the fix.
Game is now as it should be.
And, for the record, my old profile was recovered.
The game is now as it was right at the time it failed me. That is, as it was on 07/04. Thanks to those who were able to recover the data.
Regards
Still no possibility to save anything. Any updates?
This has just happened to my save game. It looks like the existing save has completely disappeared and I can't save a new game. 2 1/2 seasons into career mode, and I'm fairly certain it's gone down the pan.
