Just like the previous year, we can expect a lot of content to be released by EA Sports throughout the campaign. One of these is an objective called “Summer of Football” which inspired by the international tournaments held last summer, such as UEFA EURO 2024 and Copa América 2024.

How to quickly complete the Summer of Football Objectives?
There are 9 different challenges in the Summer of Football objectives, and completing them individually would require at least 48 games. However, here’s the combinations (courtesy of Waldy on X)that can help you finish the objectives in fewer games:
For the first 8 games, you can use a squad contains:
- 7 Spanish players
- 3 USA players
- 1 Canadian players
You need to win those 8 games, and we recommed completing them in Squad Battle on Semi-Pro difficulty to save time. After the fourth game, you can also replace the Canadian player if you prefer to do so.
After completing the first 8 games, we can continue to the next step. Build a squad for the 9th and 10th games that contains:
- 7 Spanish players
- 3 Scottish players
- 1 Uruguayan attacker
Just like the previous step, you have to win these games. But this time, you have to score 10 goals with Uruguayan player, and we recommend using an attacker to help you score the goals and make it easier to do. Make sure to complete them, before moving on to the next step.
For the 11th through 15th games, build a squad that contains:
- 6 Argentinian players
- 5 Brazilian players
This time, you just need to win the games. No additional objectives need, if you already score all the 10 goals using a player from Uruguay. But if you haven’t, feel free to sub in a player from Uruguay and continue the goal scoring objective.
Then for the next two games, build a squad that fill these requirements below for the 16th, 17th, and 18th games:
- 6 German players
- 3 Scottish players
- 2 Georgian players
Make sure you get the win in those games, before continuing to the next step. This is the penultimate step, as you probably already finish most of the objectives except getting wins while having players from Georgia.
The final step is for game 19-24, get the wins with a squad that contains:
- 2 Georgian players
That’s the final step of the challenge, and this time you’d probably be able to complete it in Rivals or Champions by quickly subbing out the Georgian players if you don’t feel confident using them.
But to make sure that you get the win as quick as possible, we still recommend completing it in Squad Battle on Semi-Pro difficulty. It’s still a long journey, but definitely quicker than completing each challenges individually.
