Cornerstones Team 2 in FC 25 looks ready to outshine Team 1, thanks to a group of standout leaked players. Cristiano Ronaldo and Florian Wirtz are massive names, but many fans believe Claudia Pina could actually be the most exciting card in this drop. With a mix of proven stars and meta-friendly upgrades, Team 2 could be far more appealing than the first Cornerstones release.
Cristiano Ronaldo returns with first promo item
Cristiano Ronaldo is confirmed to receive his first promo card of FC 25. Even late in his career, Ronaldo remains one of the most popular strikers in Ultimate Team, and any pace or finishing boost will keep him lethal. Expect his Cornerstones version to carry a premium price as FUT Champs players look for proven goalscorers.
Florian Wirtz gets a huge creative boost
Florian Wirtz, now starring at Liverpool, is one of the most hyped CAMs in the game. His gold card has held value for weeks, and the leaked Cornerstones upgrade should make him even more central to attacking setups. A boost in pace and stamina alongside improved playstyles will make Wirtz a must-have in 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-2-1 systems.
Claudia Pina could be the star of Team 2
Claudia Pina may turn out to be the true highlight of Cornerstones Team 2. Her gold card has already been one of the most hyped in FC 25 because she simply feels different in-game. The Low Driven+ playstyle has become one of the most overpowered ways to score, and Pina’s gold version already has it.
What makes her even more special is how her in-game performance exceeds her face stats. She feels quicker and stronger than her numbers suggest, which is why so many players have fallen in love with her card. With a Cornerstones upgrade likely boosting pace, passing and dribbling, this version could be one of the best attacking midfielders in Ultimate Team right now. For players running LaLiga or Spain squads, Pina offers perfect chemistry links on top of her gameplay power.
Alejandro Balde strengthens the defense
Alejandro Balde is rumored to be part of Team 2, giving players another fast and reliable left-back option. His gold card already sees use as a budget pick, and this upgraded version should meet key acceleration and defensive thresholds that FUT Champs players demand. Expect his price to rise quickly if he performs well in-game.
Trent Alexander-Arnold Cornerstones upgrade
Trent Alexander-Arnold is also leaked for Team 2. Since joining Real Madrid, his card has been popular for chemistry links, but pace has always been the question. If EA Sports FC gives him a meaningful boost in acceleration and sprint speed, Trent could finally become a highly usable RB option in Ultimate Team squads.
Cristiano Ronaldo not the only big attacker
While Ronaldo is the main attacking headline, Marcus Thuram is also rumored for Team 2. Thuram’s physical style makes him perfect for players who want a strong target forward, giving strikers more depth in the promo.
João Neves adds a balanced midfield option
João Neves is another leaked player for Team 2. The Benfica midfielder could become a well-rounded CM with upgrades to pace, stamina and passing. His chemistry options with Portuguese players make him a flexible squad piece and a possible long-term investment for many Ultimate Team users.
Jordan Pickford brings Premier League links
Jordan Pickford is also leaked for Cornerstones Team 2. While not as flashy as Ronaldo, Wirtz or Pina, he is a dependable goalkeeper with strong Premier League links. For players building around English squads or looking for chemistry with defenders like John Stones or Kyle Walker, Pickford will be a useful and affordable option.
