In this piece, we will present all the information regarding TOTW 26, including the players featured and their stats. Let's explore the TOTW players you may discover in your packs this week!
TOTW 26 Release Date & How to get
TOTW 26 is out now and dropped into packs in Ultimate Team on Wednesday, 13 March at 6 pm GMT.
The players featured in this week's release will be in packs for seven days until TOTW 27 takes over. If you have a specific TOTW 26 player in mind for your squad, the countdown has begun.
EA has recently increased the minimum rating requirement for all TOTW items by +2, ensuring that every player has a rating of at least 85 OVR. Additionally, the three highlighted players in each TOTW will now have two PlayStyles+ on their cards, indicated by a symbol next to their name on the list below.
Despite variations in player stats, the new rating threshold and additional PlayStyle+ guarantee that you will receive a high-quality card regardless of the player.
TOTW 26 Players
A total of 18 brand-new TOTW players are now made available in Ultimate Team packs, just like always. TOTW 26 features prominent players from the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, and various other leagues, all of whom have earned upgrades to their overall ratings due to their exceptional performances over the past week of football.
First, we will highlight the three highest-rated players from TOTW 26, before listing the rest of the inclusions below, starting with one of the best strikers in the world!
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich - 93 OVR)
Harry Kane is proving why he is the best striker in the world, and despite Bayern and Thomas Tuchel's troubles this season, Kane is continuing to dominate in front of goal, scoring three goals and grabbing an assist in an emphatic 8-1 win over Mainz in the Bundesliga over the weekend. Kane has been given a 93-rated TOTW card with an incredible 96 shooting!
Luka Modric (Real Madrid - 89 OVR)
One standout performer over the weekend was Croatian veteran Luka Modric, who despite his age, is still tearing up La Liga in the midfield of one of the greatest teams in the world. Although he didn't contribute to any goals in Real Madrid's 4-0 win over Celta Vigo, the Croatian had a fantastic game, resulting in him being given an 89-rated Team of the Week card, with four of his stats above 80!
Mario Gotze (Eintracht Frankfurt - 88 OVR)*
German attacking midfielder Mario Gotze has received his first TOTW inclusion of FC 24, after impressing in Eintracht Frankfurt's 3-1 win over Hoffenheim, with the 31-year-old, scoring and assisting once in the match.
