The Team of the Year (TOTY) in FC 25 is officially here, and the excitement is building over which cards will be the most valuable, which SBCs will drop, and how the market will react. The addition of three Play Style Plus traits on TOTY cards is making the hype even more intense. So, if you’re looking to get ahead of the game and make smart investments, here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming content and pricing predictions.
What’s the Price for Women’s TOTY Cards?
Let’s start with the standout names in the women’s section. Graham Hansen is expected to be one of the top cards, potentially rivaling the likes of Vinicius Jr. in price. With the added Play Style Plus traits, her Team of the Year card is going to be outstanding in terms of stats and will likely be priced high—around 8 million coins. If you’ve used her Gold card before, you’ll know just how good she can be, and with these extra traits, she’s only going to be more valuable.
As for Sophia Smith, last year’s Team of the Year card was relatively affordable, hovering around 1.2 million to 1.3 million coins, though it quickly shot up in value. Expect her to be more expensive this time due to the three Play Style Plus traits and the overall increase in market coins. Starting around 2.2 to 2.5 million coins seems likely, and she could rise even more once the full TOTY squad is revealed.
Lauren James, while also an excellent option in-game, might be the most affordable of the attackers, likely starting around 2 million coins. Still, expect her to be highly effective in matches with her combination of pace and Play Style Plus traits.
Market Trends: What to Expect
With so many coins circulating in the game due to rewards and pack openings, Team of the Year cards across the board are going to be expensive. Graham Hansen, for example, could see a surge in demand, driving her price up over the next few weeks. In contrast, Sophia Smith and Lauren James will likely have a more gradual rise in price, but expect them to see a sharp spike once the full Team of the Year cards are available in packs.
For context, Graham Hansen went from 6.5 million coins last year to 9 million coins as the TOTY period progressed, and this year could see similar price movements for these elite women’s players.

The SBC Landscape: Big Leaks and Predictions
One of the most exciting aspects of Team of the Year is the SBC content. And based on last year’s trends, it’s likely we’re going to see some incredible SBCs drop, potentially making or breaking the market today. The most anticipated SBC is the Flashback Kevin De Bruyne (KDB). His flashback card is expected to feature overpowered traits like Incisive Pass and Pinged Pass, making him a game-changing midfielder in FC 25. Given that his previous Team of the Year cards were priced at over 1 million coins, expect his flashback SBC to be around 1.5 million coins, though some speculate it could be priced higher.
Another SBC that fans are waiting for is Gareth Bale’s potential Team of the Year icon SBC. His pace and Play Style Plus traits make him a fantastic winger, and with the hype surrounding him, it’s likely that his SBC will cost around 2 million coins. If this SBC drops today, it will be a massive moment for Team of the Year.
Icons and the SBC Market
Icon cards are always a big part of the Team of the Year festivities, but this year there’s an added twist. We’ve already seen leaks for Puskas, Pele, and Kuman, each with their own set of Play Style Plus traits. While these cards are going to be expensive, it’s still unclear if we’ll see all of them released today.
For instance, Puskas is expected to have Power Shot Plus and First Touch Plus, which will make him an elite attacking option. His price is expected to be sky-high, and Pele, with Technical and Quick Step Plus, could easily hit 10 million coins or more. However, as with all icons, the prices may fluctuate depending on which cards are released in packs.
What Will the Packs Look Like?
The pack weights this year will be crucial to the market dynamics. In previous years, Team of the Year cards had pack weights of around 4.7%, meaning they were relatively accessible for those opening packs. However, the pack structures may be slightly different this year, so it’s worth keeping an eye on them when the packs go live.
As we saw last year, Sophia Smith’s card was unexpectedly cheap early on, and with a similar pattern anticipated for some players this year, it’s possible that the initial market prices for certain Team of the Year cards could be lower than expected. Make sure you’re ready to make a move if the pack weights seem favorable.
SBC and Evolution Updates: The Big Drops
We can also expect some Evolution content to drop today. The Center Back Evo Journey continues, and while we don’t know the full details, it’s likely that more Team of the Year-related Evolutions will appear, especially for midfielders and attackers. These Evolutions can have a huge impact on the market by either crashing or inflating prices for specific players.
With so many players potentially in demand, including those linked to SBCs, it’s essential to monitor how certain players are performing in the market. As for Kevin De Bruyne, if his SBC drops today, be prepared for some fast market shifts. Players linked to him, like Phil Foden and Erling Haaland, might see price fluctuations, so keep an eye on these cards as the content rolls out.
Fodder and Market Tips: How to Make Coins
If you’re looking to make coins during Team of the Year, the easiest route is through fodder. With massive SBCs dropping, there will be a surge in demand for 89+ rated fodder players. These players will likely dip in price as people open packs, but once the dust settles, they’re expected to rebound. Target 89-rated cards and above for sniping, as they should provide a decent return in the hours following content drops.
Additionally, if you’re looking to make big moves in the market, be cautious with high-end attackers and midfielders, as they might see price fluctuations. For now, trading in defenders could be a safer bet, as they are less likely to be impacted by the massive rush for SBC content and pack drops.
With the Team of the Year officially underway in FC 25, today is one of the biggest days in the calendar for FUT players. Expect massive SBCs, evolving content, and high-value cards entering packs. Whether you’re planning to pack a Team of the Year player, invest in the market, or just craft some of the new SBCs, there’s no shortage of action today. Make sure you stay updated on the latest leaks and market trends, and be ready for a fun, fast-paced day in FC 25.
