EA Sports has released the much-anticipated EA FC 25 Team of the Week (TOTW) 26 in Ultimate Team. This latest TOTW lineup features several high-performing footballers, including Arsenal's Declan Rice, AC Milan's Christian Pulisic, and Chelsea's Marc Cucurella. While the community expected big names such as Alexia Putellas and Romelu Lukaku to make the list, EA has opted to exclude them this time.

As always, the TOTW squad consists of players who have delivered exceptional performances for their domestic clubs over the past week. Many of these cards feature valuable PlayStyles+ traits, making them key additions to various Ultimate Team squads. This article provides a detailed breakdown of the TOTW 26 roster, analyzing the outstanding performances that earned these players their spots.

Declan Rice and Christian Pulisic Lead the TOTW 26 Lineup

Arsenal continues to push for the Premier League title, currently sitting in second place. One of the driving forces behind their success has been Declan Rice, whose equalizing goal against Manchester United helped secure a crucial point for the Gunners. EA has rewarded Rice with an 88-rated TOTW card, featuring the Long Ball Pass+ PlayStyle trait, making him a valuable midfield asset.

Meanwhile, AC Milan’s Christian Pulisic played a pivotal role in their victory over Lecce, scoring two decisive goals. As a result, EA has provided him with an 88-rated TOTW card featuring the Finesse Shot+ PlayStyle trait, making him a potent attacking threat.

Other Notable Inclusions in TOTW 26

Several other players have earned a place in this week's lineup due to their standout performances. Nottingham Forest’s Callum Hudson-Odoi is one such player, having scored a stunning winner against reigning Premier League champions Manchester City. His 88-rated TOTW card boasts Finesse Shot+ and Rapid+ PlayStyles, making him an enticing option for Ultimate Team players.

Additionally, Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella made the list after scoring a crucial goal against Leicester City, while PSG’s Bradley Barcola delivered a match-winning performance against Rennes, earning him an 87-rated TOTW card with two PlayStyle+ traits.
