These unique items receive upgrades based on how their teams fare in European competitions, but with four different tournaments to keep up with, it can be hard to know who’s next in line for a boost. Here’s our EA FC 25 RTTF upgrade tracker, showing all the players and their upgrade criteria.

There will be many more added to packs once the event itself gets underway, likely at the end of February.

It’s worth keeping in mind that the upgrades are based on the team’s performance, not the individual player. So, even if the player depicted on your RTTF card doesn’t kick a ball in any of the matches, they’ll still reap all of the rewards if their club lifts the trophy.
So, if you’re looking to make smart investments once the promo begins, make sure you’re looking at the team as much as the player.
