In global football, Manchester City’s Rodri has been awarded the Ballon d’Or, a choice that has drawn widespread attention, with Real Madrid even opting to skip the ceremony in protest.

2. Ten Hag’s Departure Sparks Market Investment
The coaching change at Manchester United, where Erik ten Hag has stepped down and assistant coach Ruud van Nistelrooy has temporarily taken over, has been a major talking point. This shift has triggered price shifts in United players, with investors flocking to Alejandro Garnacho’s cards and realizing short-term profits. It’s a clear example of how real-world events can impact in-game markets.
3. Market Trends and Strategy Analysis
The market saw sharp fluctuations this week. Over the weekend, a sell-off of gold cards led to a noticeable drop in prices, which slightly rebounded on Monday. Observing this pattern of weekend lows and Monday highs can help players catch good buying and selling opportunities to minimize resource loss. With Sunday and Wednesday often marking price lows, strategic sales at these points can support consistent returns on investment.
High-level players can leverage weekly low-high cycles for short-term trading. Typically, lows appear on Sundays and Wednesdays, followed by rebounds on Mondays and Thursdays. By mastering this cycle, players can avoid major value drops in their cards.
4. SBC Showdown, Centurions Event & New Season Missions
SBC Showdown Event: This week’s SBC Showdown between Chelsea and Manchester United has drawn much attention. Card ratings will adjust based on the match outcome—winners get a +2 boost, and a draw gives both teams a +1. This format has excited fans, adding more interaction with card updates.
Centurion Event Preview: The upcoming Centurion event is set to bring new legendary cards like last year’s icons Ruud Gullit and Gheorghe Hagi. Expect some new Centurion-themed and current player cards worth watching. The French national team will also be a season highlight, with themed tasks and SBC cards, giving fans a great chance to build their collections.
Friendly Match Event: The latest Friendly Match event requires players to use a single national team to complete tasks for small pack rewards, raising prices for French and Spanish players. To maximize FUT coins, players can also aim to buy cards on Sunday and Wednesday lows and sell them on Mondays and Thursdays, using event clear-outs as a chance to keep FC 25 coins in reserves for new opportunities.
5. special Card Investment and Lucky Draw Event
Special Card Buying Opportunity: A common investment strategy now is focusing on special card lows at the right buying moment. This week’s anticipated special card lucky draw event will likely include a “Classic special Card Review” opportunity, causing a brief sell-off as prices temporarily drop. Players interested in specific special cards can use this time to buy in at lower prices, with potential profits when prices bounce back.
Sacrifice Card Management & Premium Card Storage: As Thursday’s payout and Friday’s pack-opening event approach, players are advised to sell most cash cards by Thursday to avoid price dips from the pack opening. For premium cards, players should consider buying and holding one of each card at lower market prices. These cards tend to gain value during limited-time events or rare card updates, allowing players to benefit from long-term appreciation.
6. Anticipation Around POTM Card & Market Impact
Currently, rumors suggest that POTM is leading the monthly vote standings. If awarded POTM, this card will likely become a hot item, potentially causing market price fluctuations. If confirmed for SBC, players should closely monitor gold and special card prices, as these cards often dip due to panic selling before SBC leaks but may rebound as demand increases.
