I am also having this issue. During the second season my scouts are always busy while scouting nobody. When I do get to assign them the players disappear a day or so later. I have had this issue for at least the last two Fifas and all I see on these forums are “we will send this to the correct dept or person, etc” with no actual solutions. I have tried to relocating and replacing methods to no avail. You can really tell career mode isn’t what makes EA money.
