FIFA 22's Ones to Watch promo kicked off Ultimate Team this season, and the upgrades are still in full swing.

EA added the new 'Wins to Watch' bonus this year too, so even if your star isn't performing, his team might be!

Latest - Upgrades inbound

Milan centre-back Fikayo Tomori was the first Ones to Watch player to receive a Wins to Watch Upgrade, and he is now set to be followed by three more players!

Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund both claimed their fifth win at the weekend, meaning their summer signings are also in for a boost.

Romelu Lukaku will become an 89 OVR this week, and he is already a more than handy striker in FUT!

Ones to Watch Upgrades, Wednesday, 24 November:

  • Romelu Lukaku (OVR 88 - 89)
  • Saul (OVR 82 - 84)
  • Donyell Malen (OVR 80 - 83)

Release Date

The full launch of FIFA 22 took place on Friday, 1 October 2021.

As far as Ones to Watch goes, Team 1 was released on the same day as full launch on Friday, 1 October. A mini release of three players followed on Sunday, 3 October.

Team 2 followed the same format, with 11 players released on Friday, 8 October, followed by another three players on Sunday, 10 October.

New OTW upgrade system

Ones to Watch cards have featured in the past couple of Ultimate Team seasons, and they will be back again in FUT 22.

If you are not sure how they work, then take a look at EA's summary below as there are some changes to the previous editions.

"As players show off their skills on the pitch for their new club, their Ones To Watch item will upgrade when they receive a performance-based in-form item such as Team of the Week and Man of the Match.
"New in FUT 22, OTW items will also be eligible for a ‘Wins to Watch’ upgrade, a one-time +1 In-Form boost if a team wins five matches out of their next ten domestic league games starting from October 1!"

One win away

After last week's fixtures, a total of 15 players are now just one win away from hitting the magic five wins.

The PSG stars are all one away, so that should happen sooner rather than later with upgrades to Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, Achraf Hakimi, and Georginio Wijnaldum.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are also one win away from five, with two players each waiting for a boost.

Sadly, Brighton is now the only team to have not won one game of their first six, meaning Marc Cucurella is no longer eligible for a Wins to Watch upgrade.

OTW Team 1

The official EA Sports FIFA Instagram account revealed the full Ones to Watch Team 1 squad.

Manchester United's new boys Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varane were the picks of the bunch.

The likes of Achraf Hakimi, Jack Grealish, David Alaba, and Dayot Upamecano also made the incredible first squad.

On top of that, a Camavinga OTW objective also became available.

OTW Team 2

Another full squad of Ones to Watch players was released into packs in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team following the epic Team 1.

PSG superstars Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos were included, but we already knew they would be Ones to Watch players at some point.
