How Team of the Year in FC 25 Could Shape the Market

The countdown to Team of the Year (TOTY) in FC 25 has officially begun, with just one week left until the highly anticipated event. As players prepare for one of the biggest promotions of the year, the current promo, NumeroFUT, enters its final days with exciting updates, leaked SBCs, and intriguing market movements. Here’s what you need to know about the latest developments and how to make the most of the current content.

What’s new in FC 25 ahead of TOTY?

This week brought another wave of NumeroFUT content, keeping the community engaged ahead of the TOTY release. Players from Team 1 remain in packs, and Team 2 will be added tonight, increasing the pool of available cards. Key additions include standout players like Antoine Griezmann, Juan Cuadrado, and Balde, alongside goalkeeper upgrades for Alisson and Jordan Pickford.

The market impact has been significant, with high-tier cards experiencing notable fluctuations. Griezmann’s finesse-focused right-mid card, for example, brings versatility with potential alternate positions at CAM or striker. Meanwhile, Balde’s significant physical boost makes him a strong option for defensive roles.

To stay informed about the latest market shifts and strategies, we recommend following expert analysis, like that provided by TheFutAccountant on YouTube.

His recent breakdown of the NumeroFUT promo offers valuable insights into how these updates impact the game.

How SBCs like John Stones are shaping squads

One of the standout leaks is the John Stones Duo Pick SBC, featuring two versions of the Manchester City defender. Both cards bring exciting options: one emphasizes pace, while the other focuses on defending and dribbling with an Anticipate Plus playstyle.

The potential versatility of Stones’ card as a center-back, defensive midfielder, or even right-back makes it an attractive option for many squads. However, the card’s value will ultimately depend on its cost, which is expected to be competitive given Stones’ popularity.

Leaked cards like Player of the Month Alexander Isak also offer intriguing choices for Premier League squads. Isak’s finesse-based upgrades and 5-star weak foot make him a solid option, though some players were surprised by his selection over Mohamed Salah, who had an impressive month.

Preparing for TOTY with market strategies

The impending arrival of TOTY is causing shifts in the market as players try to maximize their resources. Current promo cards, such as NumeroFUT Team 1 players, remain packable until Tuesday, providing opportunities for investments as their prices fluctuate.

If you’ve been holding onto fodder like 84-, 85-, and 86-rated cards, now might be the time to sell, especially as demand peaks with SBC releases like Stones and Isak. For higher-rated fodder, such as 88s and 89s, there may be additional upward movement closer to TOTY as more players save packs for the big event.

For traders, monitoring panic selling and buying during dips can yield quick flips, especially for in-demand cards like James Rodríguez and Vincent Kompany. Keeping an eye on TOTY leaks will also help guide decisions on which players to prioritize.

Evolutions: A promising upgrade opportunity

Another exciting aspect of FC 25 is the upcoming Evolution feature, which now appears to include higher-rated cards, such as 87-rated options like Marchisio and Hamsik. These updates expand the potential for further upgrading players, making Evolutions more valuable for squad customization.

The community has been eagerly awaiting Evolutions that allow for significant upgrades, such as those seen with Attacking Avalanche. The rumored additions bring a new level of excitement, particularly as players look for creative ways to optimize their squads before TOTY.

Market Watch: What to expect this weekend

Weekend League and rewards are expected to cause notable market activity. Players like Vini Jr., who recently climbed from 380,000 to 450,000 coins, may see additional shifts as rewards are opened and demand fluctuates.

Key trading windows typically occur within the first few hours of content drops, making this a crucial time to sell cards that have risen in value. For example, midfielders like Yaya Touré and Rúben Dias have rebounded in price after recent drops, presenting opportunities for profit.

As TOTY approaches, patience and timing will be essential for both traders and players looking to optimize their squads. With so much content already live and more expected in the coming days, the next week promises to be an exciting lead-up to one of FC 25’s biggest events.
