The excitement surrounding EA Sports FC 25 continues to grow as the Team of the Week (TOTW) 18 cards have been leaked. While TOTW cards are often a hit-or-miss affair, this week’s lineup offers a mix of top-tier talent, solid mid-range options, and fodder cards ideal for upcoming Squad Building Challenges (SBCs). This article dives deep into the leaked players, highlighting the standout cards and their potential impact on Ultimate Team squads.

Headline Player: Ousmane Dembélé (RW, PSG – 88 OVR)

Ousmane Dembélé leads the TOTW 18 promo with a card that’s set to be a fan favorite. Known for his exceptional pace, dribbling, and versatility, Dembélé’s in-game attributes and PlayStyles make him a perfect fit for high-level gameplay. As a winger, he excels in both wide and central attacking roles, and his five-star weak foot adds tremendous value to any squad. If you’re looking for a card that can dominate on the flanks or cut inside to unleash deadly finishes, Dembélé is your go-to choice this week.

Other Key Players to Watch

Fridolina Rolfö (LB, Barcelona Women – 87 OVR)

Rolfö offers a rare combination of defensive reliability and attacking prowess for a full-back. Her card boasts excellent pace, crossing, and physical stats, making her a standout option for players seeking a more aggressive left-back who can contribute to both ends of the pitch.

Xavi Simons (CAM, RB Leipzig – 86 OVR)

Simons continues to impress with his dynamic playstyle, and his TOTW card reflects his recent stellar performances. With outstanding agility, passing, and shooting stats, Simons can orchestrate attacks from the midfield or serve as a secondary striker. He’s a perfect pick for those who enjoy creative gameplay.

Gift Monday (ST, Tenerife Women – 86 OVR, Featured TOTW)

As a Featured TOTW player, Monday’s boosted stats elevate her beyond a typical TOTW card. Her combination of speed, physicality, and clinical finishing makes her a valuable addition for players needing a reliable striker. She’s especially effective for budget squads aiming to compete at higher levels.

André-Frank Zambo Anguissa (CM, Napoli – 86 OVR, Featured TOTW)

Anguissa’s card is a midfield powerhouse, offering strong defensive capabilities paired with excellent ball control and passing. Ideal for box-to-box roles, he provides balance to any squad and is particularly effective in formations requiring dynamic central midfielders.

Mid-Tier Options

While not as flashy as the headliners, these cards offer solid value and can be instrumental for players building competitive squads on a budget:

• Vanessa Gilles (CB, Lyon Women – 86 OVR): A commanding center-back with excellent tackling and aerial ability.

• Matteo Darmian (CB, Inter – 85 OVR): Versatile and dependable, Darmian’s card fits well into Serie A or Italian-themed squads.

• Tere Abelleira (CM, Real Madrid Women – 84 OVR): Offers solid passing and positioning for a midfield role.

Fodder Cards for SBC Enthusiasts

TOTW 18 also includes several lower-rated cards that are less likely to make it into competitive squads but are perfect for use in SBCs:

• Clement Lenglet (CB, Atletico Madrid – 83 OVR): Decent defensive stats but overshadowed by better options.

• Nikola Krstović (ST, Lecce – 83 OVR): A functional striker for Serie A beginners.

• Hugo Picard (LM, En Avant Guingamp – 83 OVR): A pacey winger with limited versatility.

These cards may not steal the spotlight, but their affordability makes them an excellent way to complete high-reward SBCs without breaking the bank.
