FC 26 Players

If Team of the Year serves as the annual marquee event for every FC title, then Team of the Season is the exclusive celebratory promo reserved for the transition between spring and summer!

While the upcoming World Cup, which has yet to begin, is capturing much of the spotlight this year, several other equally significant competitions have already concluded.

TOTS serves as a comprehensive retrospective, highlighting the players who delivered outstanding performances in these tournaments.

So, when does this promo begin and end? And what benefits and exciting experiences does it have in store for you? We're here to tell you all about it.

What is Team of the Season?

Held annually around late April, this event within FIFA game series is designed to honor real-world players who have delivered the best performances throughout the past season in leagues such as Premier League or LaLiga.

Unlike standard promos where players are released directly by the developers, these players are selected through a voting process involving you and other fans. The players who make the cut are awarded special cards featuring massive, permanent in-game stat boosts.

FUT 26 TOTS schedule

This promo officially kicks off on April 17, 2026, and will run until May 22, 2026, spanning a total of five weeks. Each Friday during this period, the final squads, determined by fan votes, will be unveiled:

• April 17th: Serie A, Eredivisie, MLS, RoE (Rest of Europe)
• April 24th: Premier League, Barclays WSL, EFL
• May 1st: Bundesliga, GPFBL, Saudi Pro League, RoW (Rest of the World)
• May 8th: Ligue 1, Arkema Premiere League, Turkish SuperLig, NWSL
• May 15th: LaLiga, Liga F, Portuguese League
• May 22rd: Ultimate Team of the Season

How to vote?

If you are the type of player who cares less about who the players are and focuses solely on whether they can help you secure a victory, then skipping the voting process is no big deal.

However, if you are a fan of specific players, this is a step you absolutely do not want to miss!

As the schedule above indicates, each week you will need to cast your votes for different leagues to determine their respective TOTS squads.

In the final week, an Ultimate Team will be selected, drawing from the standout players who made the cut in the preceding weeks. Based on this, the specific voting steps are as follows (these remain the same every week):

1. Visit the dedicated TOTS section on the official EA Sports website.
2. Locate and click Vote Now button on the page.
3. Simply drag and drop all your preferred candidate players into the starting XI formation slots.

Do not be surprised if you notice that the developers have pre-selected the winners for certain smaller leagues; this is a common practice. However, for the major top-tier leagues, the selection of TOTS squad still relies primarily on community voting.

Which players are likely to be selected?

Voting is currently in full swing for Premier League, so our predictions will focus primarily on its TOTS squad.

The final squad typically consists of 11 standard players, plus two Moments and one Flashback player. Our predictions for potential inclusions are as follows:

Standard Players:

• Gianluigi Donnarumma - GK
• Marc Cucurella - LB
• Gabriel - CB
• William Saliba - CB
• Jurrien Timber - RB
• Bruno Fernandes - CM
• Declan Rice - CM
• Casemiro - CM
• Antoine Semenyo - LW
• Erling Haaland - ST
• Igor Thiago - ST
• Virgil Van Dijk - CB
• Dominik Szoboszlai - CAM
• Harry Wilson - RM
• Joao Pedro - ST

Moments / Flashback Players:

• Eberechi Eze - CAM
• Dominic Solanke - ST
• Dominic Solanke - ST

How can you obtain these players?

Once TOTS begins, FC 26 is expected to release new SBCs and Objectives daily for you to complete.

These may reward you with specific TOTS cards, or they may provide additional card packs, thereby increasing your chances of pulling these limited-edition cards.

Completing an SBC typically involves fulfilling several specific requirements within a single task; you simply need to select players from your own club roster that meet these criteria to assemble a qualifying squad.

Objectives, on the other hand, require you to participate in actual matches, either by securing victories or by performing specific actions using designated players.

It is worth noting that while Team of the Season event is active, there is also a chance to pull TOTS cards from long-term objectives and any other reward packs obtained through various means.

Additionally, card packs will be available for trade in the in-game store.

If you prefer not to rely on chance, but instead wish to acquire a specific player card with greater precision, you can trade directly on the transfer market. With a bit of luck, the number of coins required might not even be that high!

However, given that new squads are released every week, player cards from different leagues may be available for a limited time only. Therefore, be sure to keep a close eye on the schedule to avoid missing out on the cards you desire.

Why shouldn't you miss out on TOTS?

The enhanced cards featured in this promo not only offer you deeper insight into the players who starred in 2025/26 season, but also serve to significantly boost the overall strength of your squad.

More importantly, if you happen to be a fan of these specific players, this is the perfect opportunity to acquire limited-edition, enhanced versions of your idols!

That wraps up everything we have to share with you today. Start getting ready to acquire these new cards right away and don't forget to cast your votes!

This Friday, April 3, marks the return of Trophy Titans, a promotion that has been absent for three years. Many players are excited, as every player featured in this event is exceptionally useful.

A significant amount of leaked information has already surfaced, including the roster for Trophy Titans Team 1 and details on some SBCs. Before April Fools' Day truly kicks off, let's dive into these relatively credible leaks and how you can prepare in advance.

What is Trophy Titans Promotion?

Since this promotion hasn't appeared in EA FC 25 or even 24, newer players might not understand why it's generating so much excitement. To grasp that, we need to go back three years to FIFA 23 and see what made it a classic.

Trophy Titans Cards

Trophy Titans promotion was the first event in EA FC series history to feature only Icon and Hero cards. In FIFA 23, every selected player had dynamic images of them holding a trophy, making them highly desirable collectibles. More importantly, these cards were remarkably accessible.

FIFA 23 Trophy Titans promotion introduced "Baby" versions of Icons - for instance, an 88 OVR Alessandro Del Piero, whose value once dropped as low as 14,000 FC 26 coins, allowing everyday players to easily acquire Icon players. While the premium versions remained valuable, these Baby versions offered incredible value and sometimes even boasted stats superior to their Prime variants.

Trophy Titans SBC

Squad Building Challenges during Trophy Titans promotion were equally noteworthy. In FIFA 23, Roy Keane's SBC was widely praised for its outstanding performance and reasonable cost. Additionally, Frank Lampard's objectives were quite distinctive, allowing players to earn three different-rated versions of Lampard (86, 90, 93) by completing a series of tasks. In FC 26, such lower-rated cards can serve as excellent candidates for Evolutions.

Trophy Titans Leaked Players

According to the latest leaks, the player pool for this Trophy Titans event will be exceptionally star-studded, featuring giants like Zidane, Hullett, Ronaldinho, Totti, Morgan, Butragueño, and many more. Several of these players just received new cards during Team of the Year promotion and are now set to get another version.

This time around, there will also be Baby Heroes and Icons, giving players opportunities to acquire these athletes at a lower cost and then use Evolution system to turn them into top-tier competitors. Some of the elite cards will feature three PlayStyle+ slots, essentially signaling that FC 26 is entering the lead-up phase to Team of the Season.

Below is the list of leaked Team 1 players - player stats are not included:

• Angerer
• Barzagli
• Beckenbauer
• Beckenbauer (Baby Version)
• Berbatov
• Bompastor
• Campbell
• Campbell (Baby Version)
• Cantona
• Carlos Puyol
• Carlos Puyol (Baby Version)
• Emilio Butragueño
• Emilio Butragueño (Baby Version)
• Fernando Hierro
• Fernando Morientes
• Gullit
• Hazard
• Kohler
• Morgan
• Nesta
• Nesta (Baby Version)
• Pizarro
• Prinz
• Prinz (Baby Version)
• Ronaldinho
• Shearer
• Shearer (Baby Version)
• Thuram
• Thuram (Baby Version)
• Totti

Trophy Titans SBC Leaks

92 OVR Ricardo Kaká

• Pac: 92
• Sho: 88
• Pas: 90
• Dri: 92
• Def: 46
• Phy: 80

Ricardo Kaká is set to receive his first promotional SBC card of the year, rated 92 OVR. Featuring Incisive Pass and Finesse Shot - two highly sought-after PlayStyle+ - he will become a popular choice for the attacking midfielder position. While his base stats may not be the absolute highest, Ricardo Kaká has historically felt excellent to control in FIFA series and remains a fan favorite. As long as this SBC is reasonably priced, it will be well worth completing.

89 OVR Eden Hazard

• Pac: 94
• Sho: 88
• Pas: 87
• Dri: 92
• Def: 38
• Phy: 70

Compared to his premium versions, this card's lower rating means it has significant room for future improvement through Evolutions. You might be able to take this Hazard card during a future Team of the Season promotion and enhance his shooting and passing attributes via Evolution, giving him substantial potential.

Also leaked is former Real Madrid player Míchel Salgado, who will appear either as an SBC or as an Objective reward.

How to Prepare for Friday?

Sell Existing Icons

If you hold Icon cards for players who are about to receive new versions in this event, it is advisable to sell them soon. Trophy Titans promotion will release numerous new versions of these Icons, which typically drives down the value of their existing variants.

Road to the Final Cards

Your Road to the Final players are live cards that upgrade based on real-world match results. Their matches are about to begin, and their values may rise just before kickoff. Players like Victoria López have already seen some fluctuations. If you are considering investing in these cards, proceed with caution; holding onto some FC 26 coins to invest in Trophy Titans promotion may be a wiser move.

Fodder Cards

Promotions often come with a wave of SBC, which sharply increases demand for fodder players, such as 85 OVR cards and Team of the Week selections. A strategy with minimal risk is to acquire these cards when their value is low and sell them after the promotion goes live.

• 85 OVR players: can be secured for around 2,500 coins.
• Team of the Week players: can be secured for around 12,000 coins.

Many players are keeping a close eye on this promotion, so starting this Friday, it's shaping up to be a very busy week. Here's hoping Trophy Titans promotion lives up to its legacy from three years ago, and that you get the Icons you're after.
