EA FC 25 Grassroot Greats: What Can We Know About The Leaks?
As EA Sports FC 25 Season 5 progresses, the long-awaited new promotion Grassroot Greats is about to debut. This event was previously confirmed by FUT 25, and it will meet players this week.
This event is centered on nostalgia and classics, aiming to bring back legendary players in Ultimate Team history who have conquered players with high cost-effectiveness or super powerful strength. Many players are concerned about which players will be selected for this event, and various leaks are emerging as the event is approaching. So are there any players you like among these leaked players?
Date
Grassroot Greats event is expected to be officially launched on February 14, 2025, replacing Future Stars promotion that ended at the same time. Grassroot Greats event will last for a week. After this event, it may be Road to the Final, taking over the second half of Season 5 of FIFA 25.
In addition, Future Stars is being held. The players in this event also have very good data. They can definitely become one of the core players in your team. When Grassroot Greats event starts, the players in Future Stars will be removed from the shelves. Players who want to get Future Stars should quickly use your FC 25 Coins to unlock your favorite players!
The theme of Grassroot Greats event is to pay tribute to the classics, focusing on those players who have left a deep mark in the history of Ultimate Team. These players may not be top stars in reality, but because of their super attributes in the game, such as Race, shooting or physical advantages, they have become the king of cost-effectiveness or even the most popular players in the player’s lineup. For example, Gervinho, Doumbia, Ibarbo of Roma trio in FIFA 15 or Alexander Esswein in FIFA 13 have become players’ nightmares with their low prices and amazing performance.
Leaked Players
Although EA has not yet officially announced the complete list, multiple leaks have revealed some core players and card design directions. Even when the official promotional video for Grassroot Greats was released in January, a leaked list was leaked:
- Doumbia
- Gervinho
- Ibarbo
- Franz Beckenbauer
- Diego Maradona
- Alexis Mac Allister
- Juninho
- Ian Wright
- Roberto Baggio
- Foudy
- Didier Drogba
- Jaap Stam
- Bruno Fernandes
This list was leaked too early and may be different from the real list. But Diego Maradona is definitely on the list for this event. Because he is the cover character this time.
As early as 2022, EA had to remove Diego Maradona from FIFA 22 due to some legal issues. His 91, 95 and 97 cards were all removed from Ultimate Team.
Diego Maradona’s return is undoubtedly one of the biggest highlights of this event. His card may be 96 OVR Icon. What’s even more surprising to players is that EA FC 25 leaker Fut Sheriff revealed that the free Maradona Evolution is likely to appear in the game. Players only need to log in on a specific date to get it.
In addition to Diego Maradona, the following players have a high probability of appearing in Grassroot Greats:
- Seydou Doumbia (94 OVR): A representative of the speed striker in FIFA 15 era.
- Gervinho (93 OVR): A winger with strong breakthrough ability.
- Victor Ibarbo (92 OVR): A stadium warrior known for his physical confrontation and running.
- Franck Ribéry (96 OVR): Icon card, strengthens dribbling and passing attributes.
- Didier Drogba (96 OVR): Has a powerful header like a beast.
- Roberto Baggio (96 OVR): Outstanding set-piece and ball control ability.
- Bruno Fernandes (92 OVR): Enhanced shooting and Skill moves.
- Alexis Mac Allister (92 OVR): A midfielder with both offensive and defensive capabilities.
Grassroot Greats players are all very powerful this time, covering almost every position on the pitch. If you can get one of them, your team’s strength will usher in a qualitative leap. If you have a lot of FIFA 25 coins, then this event is the best time to use them.
In addition, the card design this time will be integrated with a retro style. Some players adopt the classic style of their peak season, such as Maradona’s 1986 World Cup image. And all cards are equipped with exclusive PlayStyles+ enhanced skills, such as Maradona’s Trickster+ or Drogba’s Aerial+.
How To Get Grassroot Greats Players?
High-rated Icon cards are expected to require many coins or FIFA 25 Points. Players are advised to accumulate reward packs through Squad Battles or Champions mode.
Common cards of historical classic players may be popular in the transfer market. Players who don’t need these cards can exchange them to accumulate some FUT coins. In addition, if active players are not included in the event, the coins you need to exchange them in the transfer market may be reduced. You can exchange some of these players to prepare for the next event.
Grassroot Greats is not only a nostalgic feast for EA FC 25 but also a response to the needs of Ultimate Team community players. The emotional needs of old players are met, and it also provides new players with the opportunity to experience previous versions. In addition, the return of Maradona marks the reconciliation between the developer and the football player’s copyright holder, and more legendary stars may be introduced in the future.

EA FC 25 UEFA Dreamchasers: ...
Fut Birthday ends on Friday, March 21st, and a new promotion, UEFA Dreamchasers, is coming to its place. This promotion includes a lot of really cool cards, and there are some big name players that will be great additions to your squad. Are you ready for UEFA Dreamchasers? How many FUT 25 coins do you have left? UEFA Dreamchasers UEFA Dreamchasers promotion is no less than TOTY promotion. This promotion includes icons, heroes, and current players. The cards for this promotion have unique designs, and each card also has three PlayStyles+! It will be released on March 21st at 1:00 PM EST. It is not known if it will last for two weeks like FUT Birthday, but it seems that the developers will not extend it. Maybe you can get another new promo on March 28th. Some of UEFA Dreamchasers cards are meta cards. They have great attributes and top-tier PlayStyles+. Many world-class players and football royalty will also be in this promotion, which is really exciting. But it will undoubtedly be a big test for players to store FIFA 25 coins. UEFA Dreamchasers Leaked Players Unfortunately, all the players for UEFA Dreamchasers event have been leaked in advance. This time the leaked player list comes from the popular FC 25 Twitter accounts FUT Sheriff and FIFATradingRomania. They have a long history of publishing FC leaks and almost always prove that these news are correct. But I believe the production team is used to it. The promotional players for UEFA Dreamchasers event are Harry Kane and Mbappe, who are two of the top strikers in the game and are cards that can greatly change your team’s offensive. Putellas, Lucio, Rivaldo, Prinz, Raul and Desaily are some of the biggest names on the field, and having one of them in your Ultimate Team will be a world of difference. Most EA FC 25 UEFA Dreamchasers promo cards are only available via packs and the transfer market. But some top players like Gullit and Dembele will arrive via SBC. Here is the leaked list of UEFA Dreamchasers players: Leaked Dreamchaser Icons and Heroes Icon Birgit Prinz (Germany): 94 Overall Rating Icon Rivaldo (Brazil): 94 Overall Rating Icon Raul (Spain): 93 Overall Rating Icon Ruud Gullit (Dutch): 94 Overall Rating - SBC Icon Marcel Desailly (France): 92 Overall Rating Icon Claude Makelele (France): 91 Overall Rating Hero Lucio (Bundesliga): 93 Overall Rating Hero Bixente Lizarazu (Bundesliga): 92 Overall Rating Leaked UEFA Dreamchasers Modern Players Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid): 95 Overall Rating Harry Kane (Bayern Munich): 95 Overall Rating Ousmane Dembele (PSG): 92 Overall Rating - SBC Alexia Putellas (Barcelona): 93 Overall Rating Florian Wirtz (Barcelona): 93 Overall Rating Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan): 93 Overall Rating Ewa Pajor (Barcelona): 92 Overall Rating Linda Caicedo (Real Madrid): 92 Overall Rating Marcos Llorente (Atletico Madrid): 91 Overall Rating Nico Shlotterbeck (Dortmund): 90 Overall Rating Mariona (Arsenal): 89 Overall Rating Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal): 89 Overall Rating Orkan Kokcu (Benfica): 89 Overall Rating The lowest rating for a player on a UEFA Dreamchasers card is 89, while the highest rating is 95. It’s also worth noting that these players can be upgraded based on their team’s actual performance in European Championship. This makes these cards even more sought-after. UEFA Dreamchasers Modern Players may become a better player card in the coming weeks. And when UEFA Dreamchasers trailer starts, Franz Beckenbauer will be back. This German icon has appeared in FC games for several years, so his return will be a treat for fans of Kaiser. As for the two players with the highest ratings, their attributes in this event may be as follows: Harry Kane - ST Pace: 88 Shoot: 98 Passing: 91 Dribbling: 91 Defense: 55 Physical: 88 Kylian Mbappe - ST Pace: 99 Shoot: 94 Passing: 85 Dribbling: 96 Defense: 40 Physical: 83 Harry Kane’s amazing Shooting attribute makes his shots almost unstoppable, while Kylian Mbappe’s amazing Pace attribute makes this card like an arrow into the opponent’s penalty area after getting the ball. Both of these forwards are offensive players who can bring a lot of pressure to the opponent. As long as you can get one of them, your ultimate team’s offense will make the opponent busy. If you can get both players at the same time, the opponent’s defense can be easily torn apart by you. But it may be difficult to get these two cards. The team that moved these two cards from the transfer market will definitely need a lot of EA FC 25 Coins. If you saved up a lot of Packs in advance, you may be able to get one of them. But in general, although the players of UEFA Dreamchasers are very strong, unfortunately most of the players at this time are old faces. Players have already used these cards in FC 24 and even FIFA 20. Some players have complained about this. But no matter how this game performs, it is still the best football video game currently made. Its many game modes can still bring you the purest gaming joy. After the launch of UEFA Dreamchasers, various SBCs challenges will be launched together. Try to complete the challenges.Mar-20-2025

EA FC 25: Details On The La ...
With the holiday season just around the corner, there are more and more promotions in EA FC 25. If the recent Globetrotters and Ultimate Succession promotions gave you a different gaming experience, the upcoming Winter Wildcards promotion (formerly known as FUTMAS) may give you an even bigger surprise! The return of Winter Wildcards promotion will bring you a lot of special cards and a lot of festive game content. Since EA officials have not yet released the exact details of this promotion, this guide combines the many leaks on social media and the player community to summarize the following dates, principle, and the player list for you. It is worth noting that this is for reference only, and everything is subject to the last release. Release Time The Winter Wildcards promotion will start at 1 pm ET on December 20, which is the same day that Globetrotters promotion ends. There’s no word on how long this promotion will last, but if FC 24 is anything to go by, it’ll probably be around two weeks, ending on January 3, 2025. All the cards in Winter Wildcards promotion will be available as two teams, so given how long the promotion will last, you’ll most likely see Team 2 on Friday, December 27. How Does It Work? Winter Wildcards promotion is a traditional holiday promotion that was previously called FUTMAS in EA FC games, then Freeze, and now FUT 25. Like most promotions, it offers a ton of special cards and icons that have been upgraded to add to your player packs, as well as themed Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) and objectives. Some of the stars are expected to appear as different position cards in this promotion, with Erling Haaland appearing as both a striker and a centre-back, for example. You can expect familiar players to appear in unfamiliar positions and wait for you to spend some FC 25 Coins to bring them back to your team. In addition, this Winter Wildcards promotion also offers some daily login rewards to let players enjoy the unparalleled festive atmosphere in this very interesting football video game - you just need to have a player complete Squad Building Challenge of the day. Not only that, there is also a new Crafting Upgrade waiting for you to explore. All you need to do is have the player complete multiple small SBCs, and you can get some player card packs and FUT 25 Coins from it. It is worth noting that in the previous games of this series, an Advent Calendar was also launched, and new Squad Building Challenges for those improved players would drop every day until the end of the promotion. Although it is not certain what form this promotion will take, I believe that these contents are rich enough and can provide you with a great gaming experience. Player Card List According to the leaked information, FIFA 25 Winter Wildcards promotion will provide players including many football stars in contemporary real-life games with items with the theme of this event. Some players with multi-positional capabilities will be given two Winter Wilcards items. In addition, Icon and Hero player cards that have been sought after by players in the game are also in this Winter Wildcards promotion. In fact, as more advanced player cards, they will also be awarded two Winter Wilcards items, but one of them may be rated lower than the other. Given that there is no definite news about which players will be in Team 1, this guide lists the players who can participate in this promotion based on the existing information, as well as their overall ratings. Once again, it is for reference only.

EA FC 25: How To Control Th ...
In EA Sports FC 25, players can start different types of management career modes. Some may prefer to take over a team of former glory and work to reshape it into a top team in the league. For other players who want to directly control one of the top teams in the world, career mode allows them to choose to manage eight five-star teams, each of which provides a unique career mode experience. Here is a detailed ranking of them. 8. Lombardia FC (Inter) Country: Italy League: Serie A Enilive Starting Transfer Budget: $75.8 million Lombardia FC, also known as Inter. They successfully won Serie A in the 2023-2024 season and proved themselves to be a strong team. Although the team has excellent players like Lautaro Martinez and Nicolo Barella. However, their lineup is not as interesting to use as other five-star teams. In addition, players can only play as Lombardia FC in EA FC 25. It’s even more regrettable that the jersey colors in the game are not Inter’s iconic black and blue stripes. 7. Manchester City Country: England League: Premier League Starting Transfer Budget: $247 million Manchester City is a Premier League powerhouse with some of the highest-rated players in the game. They have won six titles in the last seven seasons, and it doesn’t look like their dominance will be weakened anytime soon. It’s difficult to replicate Pep Guardiola’s tactical style in FIFA 25, but it’s still fun to charge forward with Haaland or build up the attack with De Bruyne. Since Manchester City not only has a great team, but their starting transfer budget also exceeds other five-star teams, it will be easy to win with Manchester City. 6. FC Bayern Munchen Country: Germany League: Bundesliga Starting Transfer Budget: $110 million Bayern Munchen lost Bundesliga to Leverkusen in the 2023-2024 season. Therefore, their first task is to regain the league title and consolidate their dominance in German football. This should not be difficult for them, as they have a strong team and strong financial resources. Even if Leverkusen gives you trouble in the early season, you can build a team that can dominate the game. It is even possible to weaken the opponent by getting Leverkusen’s best players using FUT 25 Coins. 5. Real Madrid Country: Spain League: La Liga EA Sports Starting Transfer Budget: $133.2 million Managing Real Madrid in career mode may feel relatively easy, as the roster they have is enough to win the game easily. In addition, they have ample funds and a board with a lenient attitude towards the use of young players. Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr are two of the fastest players in the game. Besides this, there are several young superstars on the team, such as Endrick and Arda Gular, who have the potential to become the best players in the world. Developing these young players into top stars in the game is very satisfying. 4. Liverpool Country: England League: Premier League Starting Transfer Budget: $115 million The team lineup in EA Sports FC 25 is very similar to EA Sports FC 24, with only Federico Chiesa signed. But it is still a lot of fun to manage Reds, as they have some exciting players, such as Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz. They are also a fun challenge, and the goal is to dethrone Man City, a top team, from the throne. In addition, if you want to create a new era of Liverpool’s dominance, it will not be easy, because several of their best players are old, and you have to build a team for the future. 3. Arsenal Country: England League: Premier League Starting Transfer Budget: $136.6 million Arsenal has had relatively little success in recent years. They have failed to win any Premier League or Champions League since 2004. Arsenal has a strong team with defensive players like Declan Rice, William Saliba, and Gabriel providing a solid foundation. However, you may need to strengthen your attacking lineup. 2. Leverkusen Country: Germany League: Bundesliga Starting Transfer Budget: $64.4 million Leverkusen has had a great season in the 2023-2024 season. They have only lost one game in all competitions, which gives them a five-star rating. Since Bayern Munich is usually the dominant team in Germany, they will probably regain the title, so it remains to be seen whether they can continue this success in Career Mode. Leverkusen has some excellent players. But they are still not as strong as Bayern, and their transfer budget will not be as abundant as Bayern in your first season. Therefore, even if they are unbeaten in the last season and become a five-star team, they still face certain challenges. 1. FC Barcelona Country: Spain League: La Liga EA Sports Starting Transfer Budget: $89.5 million Barcelona has faced financial difficulties in recent years, so when managing the team in career mode, the transfer budget is not as abundant as other big teams, and the board of directors has high expectations for finances and results. They want managers to lead the team to win games, manage finances properly, and develop young players. You have some outstanding young players, and you can try to develop them into top stars. Junior players such as Lamine Yamal, Gavi, Balde, and Pau Cubarsi have the potential to become the best in the game. In short, no matter which team you choose, players will experience unique career challenges. To make it easier to deal with these challenges, you can follow Giveaway channel in iGMeet discord, which often releases product giveaway information, and you can also discuss game strategies with other players in the discord group.Sep-29-2024

EA FC 25: Master These 3 Ne ...
To win in EA Sports FC 25, you need more than just a flawless tactic. It’s also important to master the various new features, especially compared to the previous FC 24, EA has added a lot of new features in the upcoming update to improve the player’s gaming experience. So, in this guide, we will introduce three key new features to help your team compete with the world’s top teams! FC IQ First of all, FC IQ introduced in EA FC 25 has completely revamped the game’s tactical system, in which team tactics, player roles and in-game intelligent tactics give you more control than ever before about how your team moves and plays. So, success in FC is no longer just about putting the best players in a certain position, but putting the right players in the system you want to run. You can focus on improving only one player who is the most suitable, instead of always investing in the best players and avoiding wasting more of your hard-earned EA FC 25 Coins. With FC IQ, team tactics are modernized at both ends of the pitch, making your teammates smarter both on and off the ball. What’s exciting to us this year is that FC IQ can be used to easily emulate your favorite tactics. For example, you can set your team to a more fluid, balanced formation, rather than just the traditional 4-4-2. Because a 4-4-2 formation can feel static or chaotic, you can set your team to a more balanced formation that alternates between a 4-3-3 and a 4-2-3-1, which is close to what Ancelotti saw when he coached Madrid. And as you know, Real Madrid has always dominated. It’s really special! FC IQ is also fundamental to the gameplay of all modes, making team tactics and individual player roles key to your team’s success. FC IQ will also affect core systems in Career Mode related to Transfers, Scouting, and Youth Academy, meaning that team building and development goes far beyond OVR. In the club, the biggest impact of FC IQ is in customizing team tactics. Club managers and lobby captains will be able to select, create and customize tactics, and choose player roles for their teams. These tactics will affect AI behavior, which has been a challenge for clubs in the past. FC IQ gives players more control over how their team is set up, but most importantly, they can control how their AI teammates play and how they position themselves. This means that even if you are just a single player, you can lead your team to better implement your best tactics and win! Player Roles In addition, the developers finally realized that they can’t just update team tactics to make the game feel real. It also depends on the players being used appropriately in the system, which is perhaps why they introduced Player Roles to FIFA 25. EA Sports has also built an out-of-game AI model to help you determine which Player Roles are suitable for players in FC. Choosing the right role means you can unleash players in new ways, and each role can have multiple focuses. A “+” or “++” means that the player is either highly accomplished or world-class in a specific Player Role. This means you can assign the appropriate role to suit the player and your strategy. To give you an idea of how your team is playing, you can view player activity maps, detailed descriptions of each Player Role, dynamic summaries of tactics, and even how your team is performing with and without the ball. And, when you need it, the game will provide in-game tactical advice based on the current match situation. You can even change your team’s tactics and focus using D-pad. If you find the best tactics for you, you can also try out tactic-specific codes and share them with your friends. Goalkeeper PlayStyles FUT 25 is a world-class football simulation in every sense of the word. Not only have they used volumetric capture to get more real-world moments and bring them into the virtual world, but FC 25 also provides players with real moves, real goals, real play styles, and of course, real celebrations for over 19,000 players and teams. PlayStyles were a tremendous success in the game last year, and EA is building on that success. In FC 25, they are adding new Goalkeeper PlayStyles to the game! Plus, there’s a lot more to get excited about, including new Skill Moves, professional fouls, visual enhancements to overlays, full-body AI mimicry, real moves, and more. In short, mastering these new features will help you develop the best tactics that are more suitable for your team and lead your club to the top. As the release date of EA FC 25 is approaching, what else can you do to prepare for entering the game? If you are short of coins, you can choose to enter iGMeet Discord, where we will hold some giveaways from time to time. As long as you are active in the group, maybe the next lucky person will be you!Sep-10-2024
