Before the main content drop today, a major FC 25 SBC is set to release—Mohamed Salah’s Player of the Month card. While details about his position, skill moves, and weak foot remain unconfirmed, a 4-star/4-star version would be ideal. Salah’s Pinged Pass and Finesse Shot+ will ensure his usability in the current meta. Pricing speculation suggests an SBC cost close to a million coins, though a slightly lower price would be more reasonable. Expect this to be a highly sought-after card, especially given his reputation for finesse shots.
Additionally, Road to the Final (RTTF) upgrades go live today. Notable players receiving boosts include:
- Champions League: Dani Olmo, Odard, and Di Vitel (all +1)
- Europa & Conference League: Inaki Williams (+2), Gigo (+1), Adli (+1), and Adab (+1)
Keep an eye on these upgraded RTTF cards as they could impact market trends.
The Streets Won’t Forget: FIFA 15 Throwback
One of the most anticipated additions is the Streets Won’t Forget promo, featuring nostalgic cards from FIFA 15. Players like Dybala, Ibarbo, and Jinho will receive a special gold-themed card design from FIFA 15—a blast from the past for long-time players.
EA is heavily pushing nostalgia with this event. If these cards truly receive 99 Pace and customizable PlayStyle+ options, as leaks suggest, they will become some of the most used attackers in the game. However, there’s skepticism about how easily these cards can be evolved. Whether they will be free, part of a paid Evolution, or require a specific challenge remains to be seen.
Yaya Touré FC 25 SBC: The Meta Midfielder Returns
Another major SBC drop today is Yaya Touré, one of the most anticipated midfielders in FC 25. His official card stats showcase:
- 95 Physicality
- High stats across all attributes
- Pinged Pass and Bruiser PlayStyles+
With an estimated price of 2-2.5 million coins, Touré is expected to dominate the midfield. His inclusion aligns perfectly with the 4-2-1-3 meta, making him a must-have for competitive players. If additional PlayStyles such as Finesse, Power Shot, and Intercept are available, this card could be a game-changer.
Expect fodder prices to rise post-content drop, unless EA releases a high-value tradable pack or overprices the SBC significantly.
Flashback Suarez FC 25 SBC Incoming
Following Cristiano Ronaldo’s SBC release last week, Luis Suárez is the next flashback card arriving today. Compared to Ronaldo’s SBC, Suarez features:
- 90 Pace, 93 Shooting, 90 Dribbling
- Quick Step and Finesse Shot+
- Five-Star Skill Moves and Weak Foot (allegedly)
Given Ronaldo’s SBC was priced around 10 squads, Suarez could be slightly cheaper, potentially 9 squads (750K–1M coins). While not as hyped as Ronaldo, Suarez still brings strong stats for a striker, making him a viable option for teams needing a clinical finisher.
Future SBCs: Bremer, Adeyemi & More
Looking beyond today’s content, several SBCs have been leaked for the coming week:
- Karim Adeyemi (99 Pace, 93 Dribbling, Quick Step+, Low Driven Shot+)
- Bremer (Choice between Intercept+ & Anticipate+ or Jockey+ with improved passing/dribbling)
- James Maddison (Finesse Shot+ & Incisive Pass)
- Trinity Rodman (Rapid & Low Driven Shot+)
These upcoming SBCs, especially Bremer’s elite defensive options, could shake up the meta for defenders. Adeyemi’s pace and new PlayStyle+ ability make him another exciting addition.
EA is also teasing a Crafting SBC, possibly launching tomorrow. The repeatable Daily Gold Upgrade SBC (10 times per day) hints at a grindable objective that will reward players for completing crafting-based challenges.
Team 2 of Fut Birthday Promo Arrives
EA’s Fut Birthday Team 2 features a stacked lineup of players in packs. Official leaks confirm:
- VVD (Interception+ & Anticipate+)
- Alvarez (Press Proof+, Finesse Shot+)
- Musiala (Low Driven Shot+ & Technical+)
- Sam Kerr (Finesse Shot+ & Low Driven Shot+)
- Zaire-Emery (Long Ball+ & Interception+)
- Martinelli (First Touch+ & Technical+)
- Harry Maguire (Aerial Bruiser+, 92 Def, 93 Physical, 85 Pace)
- Sol Campbell (94 Def, 95 Physical, elite CB option)
- Wesley Sneijder (Incisive Pass+ & Tiki-Taka+)
- David Beckham (94 Rated, 97 Passing, Dead Ball+ & Finesse Shot+)
Among these, Alvarez, Musiala, and Beckham stand out as high-value cards, while Maguire and Campbell provide strong defensive options.
Market Watch: Expected Price Trends
Unlike last week’s promo, where initial pack openings flooded the market with supply, Team 2’s cards may not drop as quickly in price. There are fewer saved packs this time, meaning:
- High-end cards may start expensive and gradually decrease
- Low/mid-tier cards could be more stable than last week
- Trading opportunities will arise from fluctuations throughout the weekend
