UNSTOPPABLE - Even France and Germany could not contain CR7

We like the look of CR7's card the most as it is in a central role, meaning there is more variety in how we can fit him into our Ultimate Team.

Take a look at all the Summer Stars cards here.

Path to glory

Confirmed.

There will be Path to Glory cards released as part of the event with added skill move and weak foot bonuses too.

NEW IN - Path to glory cards should be epic this month

While not as straightforward as the Road to the Final cards, the Path to Glory players will follow similar trends to the What If promo.

Upgrades:

  • 3 wins +2 OVR
  • 4 wins +1 OVR
  • 5 wins +1 OVR
  • 6 wins - 5* Skill Moves and Weak Foot

With a maximum of +4 to their OVR, a start rating of 95 OVR could see a new 99-rated card.

Upgrades

We've received a second round of Path to Glory Upgrades and owners of Eden Hazard will be getting very excited.

LEVEL UP - The Hazard bros lead the Festival of Futball upgrades

Hazard snr's 95 rating has now risen to 98, Marco Verratti up to 96 - whilst Phil Foden and Marco Acuna are currently sitting on a 96 rating.

One more win for Belgium and Eden Hazard would become just the second 99 rated player in FIFA 22, after Pele.
