ERLING HAALAND
Our Norwegian number nine keeps on delivering on the biggest stage. Whether that be in the real world or in FC 26.
2025 has been another prolific year for Haaland with 40 Premier League goals ensuring his rightful place in the EA SPORTS TOTY running.
His performance on the pitch lives beside his incredible performance in FC 26. Most notably, he picked up the EA SPORTS Player of the Month for September after racking up five goals in three appearances.
FC 26 Base item: 90
Highest item in FC 26: UCL Primetime, 92
GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA
Our Italian goalkeeper has been a mainstay in the Manchester City goal this season, following his arrival from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.
Donnarumma has contributed important saves in crucial matches, which has resulted in seven Premier League clean sheets in 15 games.
In FC 26, he remains a fan favourite as his Footwork and Deflector+ playstyles ensure he’s a safe bet between the sticks. Along with an impressive track record in FC 26, he was rewarded with a sport in the EA SPORTS Ultimate Team beat FUT Captains - a campaign recognising his captaincy status with the Italian national team.
FC 26 Base item: 89
Highest item in FC 26: FUT Captains, 89
YUI HASEGAWA
A staple in the heart of Manchester City Women’s midfield, Hasegawa is creative, dynamic and has an eye for a decisive assist.
The Japan international has enjoyed another brilliant year on the pitch in which she has played in all Barclays Women’s Super League games so far this season, confirming how important she is to the Club.
In FC 26, she received an upgraded base item. Hasegawa holds the Intercept+, Tika Taka, Inventive and Press Proven playstyles, all nods to her shining attributes.
She also claimed a spot in the EA SPORTS Joga Bonito Ultimate Team campaign which celebrates the players who play the beautiful game with flair, freedom and creativity.
FC 26 Base item: 85
Highest item in FC 26: Joga Bonito, 87
KHADIJA ‘BUNNY’ SHAW
It’s fair to say Bunny doesn’t chase records, the records chase her! The first woman to score 100 goals for Manchester City, Shaw has done it all with style and a deadly finish.
Already on 12 WSL goals for the season, she stands alone as the league’s current top goalscorer.
In FC 26, the Jamaica international has yet again been rewarded with an upgrade to a 89 base - which is an upgrade of three from FC 25. In the current Ultimate Team cycle, she has been involved in Ratings Reload and Unbreakables campaigns.
FC 26 Base item: 89
Highest item in FC 26: Unbreakables, 91
