A new Team of the Season (TOTS) Trade-In Pack has surfaced in the FC 25 packs list, and this one isn’t making the rounds through the usual leaker accounts like FUT Scoreboard. Instead, players have discovered it through the app directly. This pack features one guaranteed TOTS or TOTS Highlight player from any of the following: Ligue 1, Premier League, Women’s Super League, or EFL. Essentially, it covers content from the first two weeks of the TOTS promo.

However, initial reactions have been not so great. The format—a basic pack instead of a player pick—limits control over what players receive. The appeal would be significantly higher if EA had offered a 1-of-3 player pick for the same selection pool. While the pack is technically a “trade-in,” there’s concern over how expensive the requirements could be. If three TOTS cards are required to receive just one back, the value proposition feels off.

TOTS and In-Form Market Reaction

Many players have been preparing for this kind of pack by hoarding low-value TOTS cards. Earlier in the week, TOTS fodder hovered around 15,000–16,000 coins. Now, prices are inching up to 17,000 coins. With guaranteed TOTS SBCs expected again this week, it makes sense to lazy list cards at 18,000–19,000 coins today and possibly tomorrow before Division Rivals rewards drop prices again.

Historically, similar trends were observed last week. Prices spiked to nearly 20K, only to plummet back down after SBC hype cooled off. For those who bought low, the next two days are ideal for squeezing out profits before another market crash.

In-Form (Team of the Week) cards are also in a sensitive position. Currently sitting at 21K, they’re expected to dip after Wednesday’s refresh of the 81+ TOTW SBC, which is a key crafting method. Selling at 25K–27K via lazy listings today could lock in profits before prices fall to 17–18K again.

Upgrade SBCs and What to Expect Next

Today’s content drop might include a replacement for the expiring 84×7 pack, and hopes are high for an 83×14 upgrade. This would offer more player slots and better fodder farming potential than low-value packs like an 85×2. This SBC could feature a dual requirement: TOTS or TOTW, which reinforces the value in flipping either item type now.

Additionally, the 89+ Campaign Mix Player Pick is expected to refresh. While it’s underwhelming in value, its appeal might rise if EA includes cards from newer promos like Dreamchasers or Foot Birthday. Otherwise, it remains low-priority for most.

Evolution Speculation and Trading Opportunities

Two evolution leaks are circulating—one for CAMs and one for CMs. The CAM upgrade has poor value based on leaks, but the CM evolution seems promising. It includes Intercept, Long Ball, and Quick Step as potential PlayStyle+ upgrades. This has made cards like Gravenberch and Kanté attractive short-term flips.

  • Gravenberch surged from 114K to 219K post-leak and now stabilizes at 150K.

  • Kanté’s rare 91-rated version hit a low of 139K—ideal for a flip if he fits the EVO.

Monitor hype-driven pump-and-dumps. A recent example was Pascal Struijk, who went from 20K to 48K based on a viral TikTok showcasing his playstyle effectiveness. Such spikes are temporary, and selling early is crucial before prices correct.

Extra Monitoring Points

Keep an eye on cards from minor leagues that could unexpectedly gain traction. Lettiere from the Women’s Super League, for instance, has solid stats as a 95-rated RB and could become a popular choice if meta shifts or TikTok clips spotlight her.

Don’t ignore Bronze, Silver, and Gold upgrades expiring today either. These are fundamental to fodder crafting and have been active since Team of the Year. If EA removes them without replacement, it could heavily impact the grind economy. There’s also a slim chance Exchanges return, though that’s purely speculative for now.
