If you have read the error message, it says Wine, Proton and Steam Deck are not supported. The game simply doesn't support linux operating system because of the kernel level anti-cheat. This is not a bug.
For future games, you can check ProtonDB to see if they are playable on Linux. Here's the FC26 report: https://www.protondb.com/app/3405690
there is a way to solve this issue?

No, because this is not an issue per se. Developers just don't want Linux users to play the game. Simple as that. So unless EA Games suddenly decide to allow Linux, which I doubt they will, it will remain unplayable.
So I have to install windows? It is possible to install windows and stay
which linux?
