But Diego Maradona is definitely on the list for this event. Because he is the cover character this time. As early as 2022, EA had to remove Diego Maradona from FIFA 22 due to some legal issues. His 91, 95 and 97 cards were all removed from Ultimate Team. Diego Maradona’s return is undoubtedly one of the biggest highlights of this event. His card may be 96 OVR Icon. What’s even more surprising to players is that EA FC 25 leaker Fut Sheriff revealed that the free Maradona Evolution is likely to appear in the game.

And all cards are equipped with exclusive PlayStyles+ enhanced skills, such as Maradona’s Trickster+ or Drogba’s Aerial+. How To Get Grassroot Greats Players? High-rated Icon cards are expected to require many coins or FIFA 25 Points. Players are advised to accumulate reward packs through Squad Battles or Champions mode. Common cards of historical classic players may be popular in the transfer market. Players who don’t need these cards can exchange them to accumulate some FUT coins. In addition, if active players are not included in the event, the coins you need to exchange them in the transfer market may be reduced.

The emotional needs of old players are met, and it also provides new players with the opportunity to experience previous versions. In addition, the return of Maradona marks the reconciliation between the developer and the football player’s copyright holder, and more legendary stars may be introduced in the future.

Since Christmas 2024, the real-world football world has held many exciting leagues, and many teams have contributed to their best performances. For example, Nottingham Forest is expected to return to the Champions League for the first time since 1980; Atletico Madrid won the La Liga championship, etc. However, you may be surprised that no players from these teams made it into the final FC 25 TOTY lineup. As a prestigious football video simulation game, EA Sports FC 25 holds various promotions every year to help you get your favorite players with fewer FIFA 25 Coins, or to upgrade the cards of the players in your team more easily. Among all the promotions, the annual TOTY is undoubtedly the most watched.

In addition, Liverpool occupies two seats, and the remaining seats are taken by Chelsea, Aston Villa, Leverkusen and Arsenal, respectively. Among these 11 male players, the one who impressed you the most may be Rodri from Manchester City, because he has been plagued by injuries since September 2024, which led to reports at the time that this would have an adverse impact on Manchester City.

It is worth noting that Barcelona is the backbone of the new TOTY Women’s Team with four players selected, and Chelsea is close behind with three. In addition, there are two Norwegian female players in this 11-person team, showing you the hidden potential of Toppserien. Guro Reiten from Chelsea and Caroline Graham Hansen from Barcelona are the only two players on the entire annual team who do not play in their own domestic league.

Since the announcement that FC 25 will be released on September 20, football fans have been waiting for all kinds of information about this new football video game, and the first thing they knew was that global legendary star Jude Bellingham became the cover star. In the preview of the game modes, Ultimate Team, Kick-Off, and co-op Seasons that players care about have undergone certain changes, and the biggest change has occurred in Pro Clubs. This mode has become one of the most anticipated modes for players because of its fun co-op fun and the opportunity to use virtual pro players. This guide will give a detailed overview of the changes in Pro Clubs, so that you can win at the starting line before entering the official version of the game. More Customization Options For Professional Players In Clubs, the most important feature is that you can create or customize a virtual professional player of your own. Most players usually choose to create a player similar to themselves or design a very interesting and entertaining career choice so that they have a lot of fun when playing with their friends. In FC 25, more customization options are introduced for you to explore and try, so you can create a pro player with more details. Besides the cosmetics and accessories that the pro players wore in previous games, there is now a face design overhaul that allows you to create a pro player who is almost real, or a particularly funny pro player. In the latest version of Clubs, there are many types waiting for you to explore, but before that, you need to make sure your FC 25 Coins are ready. Social Hub For Friends Introduced In Clubhouse Another change in Clubs is the addition of a Clubhouse, which looks like a locker room, but is actually a social center where all club members can hang out and communicate in Clubs menu. In FC 25, Clubhouse is integrated into Clubs menu, and your friends’ pro players can also hang out here. So the whole Clubs will become more and more lively. The sole purpose of this change is to make Clubs a place for social gatherings between players, and Clubhouse allows you to have more customization and personalization as you explore various game modes and play styles. In addition to Clubhouse, the entire menu has also improved navigation, which can bring a better gaming experience for you and other avid fans like you. Rush Matches The most notable change in FC 25 is the addition of a new game mode, Rush. In this mode, you can quickly upgrade your virtual pro players and earn XP and FC 25 Coins by playing 5v5 quick matches, which is the best choice for some players. In Rush mode, a game is only seven minutes long, and the entire court becomes a miniature, so you can practice some fast-paced moves here, which is very helpful for you to end a big advantage in the official game as soon as possible. Reputation Becomes More Important Besides some changes on the court, Clubs have also changed the reputation system, and you will get rewards and increase privileges in Clubs in the future. The current reputation system is based on winning games in Clubs, so if you want to get more rewards, please use more FC 25 Coins to upgrade each of your pro players. If your reputation in Clubs reaches a certain level, you can get more customization options, higher facility budgets, and higher AI overalls. In addition to the rewards, the number of your fan base in Clubs will also increase, so you can unlock more advanced stadiums and improve your elite team status. Facilities Besides Customization Options, changes in Facilities option are also very important in Clubs. You can use Facilities option, which allows you as managers of clubs to choose whether to use the available budget to improve the statistics of your professional players. If you want to get some specific attribute improvements, the best budget for you to get facilities is 800k, such as equipment manager or head groundsman, which can increase the attributes of your players. You can even unlock a setting type specifically for a specific play style of a certain player. If you don’t have that much budget, then the most important thing is that you need to improve your Reputation in Clubs, which will only benefit the long-term development of the team. Then, as a manager, besides improving Reputation, you also need to use those budgets very wisely. Relegation Reintroduced In previous EA FC games, we didn’t try to include Relegation, but it was reintroduced in Clubs in FC 25. This will increase the possibility of promotion or relegation when you play Clubs with friends, and also bring a lot of tension and competition. In this Relegation, if you run out of opportunities, you will participate in a relegation match that is decided in one round. This will definitely bring you a very fresh feeling that is not available in other games or other modes. The above is some changes in Clubs in FC 25. I believe you will explore it more deeply in the official version on September 20! If you have questions about the gameplay in this new game, you are welcome to discuss in iGMeet Discord. I wish you a happy game!
