Team of the Year (TOTY) brings the most powerful cards and significant market shifts we&#8217;ll see all year. In this article, we\u2019ll look at how to get ready, whether you&#8217;re a seasoned pro or new to Ultimate Team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>What is TOTY?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TOTY is an annual event in EA SPORTS FC (formerly FIFA) that celebrates the best football players from the preceding year. During TOTY, fans get to vote for their favourite players from a shortlist of nominees. The voting covers both men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s teams. The players with the most votes get special TOTY cards, which boast some of the highest ratings in the game. Players who consistently perform at a high level are likely to be in contention. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These cards are exclusively available in packs for a limited time, making them highly coveted among Ultimate Team players. TOTY items receive massive across-the-board upgrades, often gaining new skill moves, weak foot improvements, and work rate changes. Players can acquire these special cards through various means, including the in-game transfer market, Squad Building Challenges (SBCs), and pack openings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Who are the players of TOTY 2025?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>The much-anticipated Team of the Year (TOTY) 2025 has been officially revealed, showcasing the players who shone the brightest over the past year. Featuring a mix of established stars and rising icons, the male and female TOTY selections include players who have made an indelible mark on their teams with extraordinary performances across the globe.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Men&#8217;s TOTY 2025:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"bb-list\">\n<li><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Goalkeeper:<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>Emiliano Mart\u00ednez (Aston Villa)<\/li>\n<li><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Defenders:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid), William Saliba (Arsenal), Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool), Alejandro Grimaldo (Bayer Leverkusen)<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"bb-bold\"><strong>Midfielders:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Rodri (Manchester City), Cole Palmer (Chelsea)<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"bb-bold\"><strong>Forwards:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 (Real Madrid), Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior (Real Madrid)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Women&#8217;s TOTY 2025:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"bb-list\">\n<li><span class=\"bb-bold\"><strong>Goalkeeper:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>Ann-Katrin Berger (Gotham FC)<\/li>\n<li><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Defenders:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Lucy Bronze (Chelsea), Irene Paredes (FC Barcelona), Wendie Renard (Lyon), Sakina Karchaoui (Paris Saint-Germain)<\/li>\n<li><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Midfielders:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Aitana Bonmat\u00ed (FC Barcelona), Alexia Putellas (FC Barcelona), Guro Reiten (Chelsea)<\/li>\n<li><strong><span class=\"bb-bold\">Forwards:<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>Caroline Graham Hansen (FC Barcelona), Lauren James (Chelsea), Sophia Smith (Portland Thorns)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These exceptional athletes have left their mark with incredible performances, earning their place in the prestigious TOTY 2025 lineup.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Why TOTY in EA FC 25 Matters<\/h2>\n<p>TOTY cards receive massive stat boosts, often becoming the highest-rated items until Team of the Season. These cards can transform your team&#8217;s performance in <strong>FC 25<\/strong>, and players will be eager to get their hands on these super-powered cards. The impact on your team and the market is something that no Ultimate Team player can afford to miss.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The market sees significant changes during TOTY. Regular gold cards usually drop in price as players sell assets to fund pack openings, creating opportunities for smart traders and team builders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Getting prepared<\/b><\/h2>\n<div class=\"flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-end\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"pt-0\">\n<div class=\"gizmo-bot-avatar flex h-8 w-8 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-full\">\n<div class=\"relative p-1 rounded-sm flex items-center justify-center bg-token-main-surface-primary text-token-text-primary h-8 w-8\">One essential step for TOTY 2025 is ensuring you have funds ready in your gaming wallet. You can easily top up using digital gift cards for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.recharge.com\/en\/ie\/playstation-store\">PlayStation<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.recharge.com\/en\/ie\/xbox-gift-card\">Xbox<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.recharge.com\/en\/ie\/steam\">Steam<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.recharge.com\/en\/ie\/nintendo-eshop\">Nintendo eShop,<\/a> allowing you to make quick purchases and take full advantage of all the opportunities that arise during the TOTY event.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thinking more strategically, here are some smart plays for making the most of TOTY: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Build your coin balance<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Sell high-value players you&#8217;re not using before the market crash. Keep liquid coins ready for opportunities.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Trading:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Look for 84-86 rated cards that typically rise when Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) arrive. Stock up when they&#8217;re cheap and sell during the event.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Save packs: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accumulate reward packs from Division Rivals and FUT Champions. Consider waiting until the full team is in packs before opening.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Monitor the market: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch for panic selling after new TOTY cards release, which may create opportunities to snipe cards below their true value.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>Participate in SBCs and objectives: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These often provide paths to special packs and picks during the event.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Impact on the transfer market\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TOTY has a profound effect on the Ultimate Team economy:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High-rated gold cards often drop in price as players sell to fund TOTY packs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TOTY cards command extremely high prices upon release<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fodder cards (high-rated, but less usable in-game) tend to rise due to SBC demand<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Popular leagues and nations linked to TOTY players may see price increases<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding these trends can help you make informed decisions about when to buy or sell players.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Free-to-play approach<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don&#8217;t need to spend real money to benefit from TOTY.

These high-rated cards will not only define the early meta but remain valuable throughout the year, with their high ratings making them ideal for SBCs. Even months after TOTY, FC 25 players will see these items hold their value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>A key moment in the Ultimate Team calendar<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Team of the Year is a big deal for Ultimate Team players.
