For the third week in a row, EA has released a TOTW that is extremely underwhelming.
EA Sports has revealed the final Team of the Week in Season 2 of EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, and it looks disappointing in hindsight. To sum it up, there are 10 players in the latest TOTW that have an overall rating of 83 – the bare minimum rating for TOTW players.
TOTW 14 is headlined by Victor Osimhen, who scored and assisted in Napoli’s 2-1 win over Cagliari. Luka Modrić‘s brilliant performance in Real Madrid’s 4-1 win over Villareal earned him his first TOTW of the season. However, unlike TOTW 12 and TOTW 13, the latest TOTW has some META players like Raphael Varane, Allan Saint-Maximin and Kim Min Jae.
Without any further ado, let’s take a dive into the full squad of TOTW 14:
Team of the Week 14
The TOTW 14 squad is composed of the following 18 players, sorted by overall ratings:
- ST: Victor Osimhen (Napoli) – 89 OVR
- CAM: Luka Modrić (Real Madrid) – 88 OVR (Featured)
- CB: Raphael Varane (Manchester United) – 86 OVR
- LM: Allan Saint-Maximin (Al Ahli) – 86 OVR (Featured)
- ST: Artem Dovbyk (Girona) – 86 OVR
- GK: Pietro Terracciano (Fiorentina) – 85 OVR
- RM: Mohamed Kudus (West Ham United) – 84 OVR
- RW: Takuma Asano (VfL Bochum) – 83 OVR
- LM: Emmanuel Sabbi (Le Harve) – 83 OVR
- CM: Ismael Saibari (PSV) – 83 OVR
- ST: Rafa Mujica (Arouca) – 83 OVR
- CB: Kevin Mac Allister (Union SG) – 83 OVR
- ST: Andre Luis (Moreirense) – 83 OVR
- CM: Finn Azaz (Plymouth Argyle) – 83 OVR
- RB: Joel Pereira (Lech Poznan) – 83 OVR
- CM: Esperanza Pizarro (Eibar) – 83 OVR
- LB: Lena Ostermeier (SGS Essen) – 83 OVR
It is speculated that Kim Min Jae has been purposefully given a featured card boost in order to make him unfit for the TOTW Upgrade evolution. While Varane (who has an 85 rated base card) got an 86 rated TOTW card, Min Jae (who has an 84 rated base card) got a +3 upgrade to take his TOTW card’s rating to 87, which is 1 more than the maximum possible rating for the TOTW upgrade (86). Anyway, it is safe to say that Bundesliga squad owners will be disappointed at this overall rating boost for the South Korean defender.
From dominating the real-life pitch to the virtual one.

FC 24 Team of the Week Changes
EA continues on enhancing the in-game presence of TOTW this year with three major updates:
- Enhanced Upgrades for Lower Rated Players: Lower-rated OVR players will receive significant upgrades, ensuring all TOTW players will be at least 80+ OVR from launch. After first TOTW refresh, all TOTW will be at least 83+ rated.
- Balanced Upgrades Across All Ranges: Players across all OVR ranges may receive proportionally larger upgrades in key stats like Pace or Dribbling to maintain balance with other content released simultaneously.
- Featured TOTW Items Upgrades: These particular items will be eligible for larger upgrades, including improvements in Weak Foot & Skill Moves. These upgrades will persist to the player’s subsequent TOTW versions. PlayStyles are planned to be introduced in the near future in order to infuse more personality into Featured TOTW Players.
Stay tuned for the release of TOTW 15 next week.
