EA FC 25: Top 10 Center Backs To Bolster Your Defense In Ultimate Team

Since Christmas 2024, the real-world football world has held many exciting leagues, and many teams have contributed to their best performances. For example, Nottingham Forest is expected to return to the Champions League for the first time since 1980; Atletico Madrid won the La Liga championship, etc. However, you may be surprised that no players from these teams made it into the final FC 25 TOTY lineup. As a prestigious football video simulation game, EA Sports FC 25 holds various promotions every year to help you get your favorite players with fewer FIFA 25 Coins, or to upgrade the cards of the players in your team more easily. Among all the promotions, the annual TOTY is undoubtedly the most watched. The promotion is presented as a vote, which will list all the playable FUT 25 players in a year for you, allowing you to choose the ones you think performed best. The final 22 players selected will be formed into two teams (11 men and 11 women, excluding substitutes) and included in the game as TOTY player items. The latest EA FC 25 TOTY voting has officially ended at 11:59 pm PST on January 12, 2025, and the specific list of selected players was leaked a few hours ago. Let us introduce it to you. TOTY Men’s Team You may be surprised to find that four Real Madrid players were selected in the starting lineup of the men’s XI of this FC 25 TOTY - after all, there are only 11 places in total! In addition, Liverpool occupies two seats, and the remaining seats are taken by Chelsea, Aston Villa, Leverkusen and Arsenal, respectively. Among these 11 male players, the one who impressed you the most may be Rodri from Manchester City, because he has been plagued by injuries since September 2024, which led to reports at the time that this would have an adverse impact on Manchester City. It is rare that a player’s EA Sports FC 25 game value increases when they are injured. Here are the specific candidates: Goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez (Aston Villa/Argentina) Defense Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool/Netherlands) William Saliba (Arsenal/France) Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid/Spain) Alejandro Grimaldo (Bayer Leverkusen/Spain) Midfield Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid/England) Rodri (Manchester City/Spain) Cole Palmer (Chelsea/England) Attack Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid/Brazil) Mohamed Salah (Liverpool/Egypt) Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid/France) TOTY Women’s Team As you can see from the results of this vote, the days of the United States dominating women’s football are gone, as only one American player was selected for FIFA 25 TOTY Women’s Team. It is worth noting that Barcelona is the backbone of the new TOTY Women’s Team with four players selected, and Chelsea is close behind with three. In addition, there are two Norwegian female players in this 11-person team, showing you the hidden potential of Toppserien. Guro Reiten from Chelsea and Caroline Graham Hansen from Barcelona are the only two players on the entire annual team who do not play in their own domestic league. Here are the specific candidates: Goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger (Gotham FC/Germany) Defense Sakina Karchaoui (Paris Saint-Germain/France) Wendie Renard (Lyon/France) Irene Paredes (Barcelona/Spain) Lucy Bronze (Chelsea/England) Midfield Aitana Bonmatí (Barcelona/Spain) Alexia Putellas (Barcelona/Spain) Guro Reiten (Chelsea/Norway) Attack Caroline Graham Hansen (Barcelona/Norway) Sophia Smith (Portland Thorns/U.S.) Lauren James (Chelsea/England) When Can You Get The New TOTY Players?

It is reasonable to witness plenty of game players have chosen their favorite club or those clubs with the highest transfer budget to manage. But if you don’t consider these factors, or are undecided. Then the following 5 Career Mode clubs could be counted as a fabulous choice for your reference. The 5 clubs listed below all features overwhelming strength and offer exciting adventure waiting for to research. Real Madrid According to solid stats, 24-25 Season transfer budget for Real Madrid will be £104,883,152. For most of Career Mode managers, Real Madrid boasts a promising prospect because most of their starting eleven are basically under 25 years old or even younger, which gives us a hint that these players have the potential to dominate Europe in the further. Los Blancos also boasts quite a few youth players who are seeking to break through and make enormous achievements in later days, such as Guler and Endrick who are able to reach a 90 overall rating if being properly nurtured and educated. If you choose to manage this team, you can draw up a detailed development plan for them and make some high-return investments, such as elevating their performance by devoting EA FC 25 Coins to make a deal with consumables that is in need. Barcelona The transfer budget for Barcelona is promised to reach £70,507,968. This does sound high. But here comes an ignorable fact that it has been overwhelmed with financial woes.

After back-to-back promotions in a roll, Wrexham takes the place of pretty near the top of League 1.  Their transfer budget is a little lower when make a comparison to some of the other teams in the division, but for those players who are looking to continue Welsh club’s victory will probably accept this challenge. If you really consider funds as an urgent issue, then make a choice of Birmingham City and try your best to help League 1 club come back to Premier League again. Chelsea The transfer budget belongs to Chelsea will be  £143,541,152. This is a considerable number. And there is no British club boasts a bigger transfer budget than Chelsea at the beginning of this year’s Career Mode. Of course, there are ways to make up the difference. For example, selling some players that this central London club currently has. Then, they can use the money to supplement the many new star players who are already working hard at Stamford Bridge. This is also equivalent to a more efficient player adjustment for your team, which is also conducive to better distribution and management. Sporting CP The transfer budget belongs to Sporting CP is £22,924,808. For those players who are expected to build a strong team for the future while still doing some challenge should look no further than Sporting CP. This club’s squad is filled with exciting young starlets, particularly when it refers to center backs with enormous potential, but their current starting eleven still has not reached the level of world-class. If properly cultivated, Sporting’s squad will qualify to make a competition at the highest level. If invested properly, it has the potential to become a glorious team.
