FC 25 TOTY Honourable Mentions: Which players nearly made the cut?

That’s right, the best of the rest – the players that didn’t quite make the cut to be included in the final TOTY men’s and women’s squads should be included in packs and Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) tonight.

Some Honourable Mentions cards were added to the game already as SBCs and Objectives rewards, including Lautaro Martínez of Inter and Argentina fame.

Who else is being added as an FC 25 TOTY Honourable Mentions card? Read on to find out.

When are FC 25 TOTY Honourable Mentions released?

The FC 25 TOTY Honourable Mentions players should be added to the game at 6pm tonight (Friday 24th January 2025) here in the UK. That’s 1pm ET for those of you playing in the US.

The Honourable Mentions release date was confirmed in a press release.

We’ve guessed the launch time in the UK to be 6pm, as that is the typical new Ultimate Team content time on these shores.

Now that you know when the Honourable Mentions players should be added to the game, you probably want to learn who has an upgraded Ultimate Team card as part of the ongoing TOTY promo in FC 25.

Keep reading for that particular info.
