The wait for the ultimate squad building phase is over as the full Men’s and Women’s Team of the Year (TOTY) XIs have officially arrived in EA Sports FC 26. This marks the culmination of the phased releases, bringing the highest-rated items in the game into packs simultaneously.
While the XI represents the elite of the elite, the community has also spoken on the 12th Player vote. Raphinha has secured the Men’s 12th Player spot with a massive 95-rated LM item, providing a high-pace, high-skill option for La Liga squads. On the Women’s side, Caroline Graham Hansen takes the honors with a 95-rated RW card that is already being touted as one of the most clinical wingers in the current meta.
For those who missed out on the primary XI, the Team of the Year Honourable Mentions have also dropped into the pool. These aren't just consolation prizes; players like Harry Kane (92 ST) and Lamine Yamal (92 RM) offer top-tier stats that can easily compete with the main squad. These items provide a more accessible entry point for players looking to upgrade their rosters without the astronomical price tags of the full TOTY cards.
In addition to the standard squad releases, EA Sports FC 26 has introduced TOTY Captains. These cards add another layer of tactical depth, rewarding consistent leadership and high-level performance throughout the season. With the full squad now available, the transfer market is expected to shift significantly as players liquidate assets to hunt for these blue-tinted upgrades.
