With FIFA 25 Coins becoming even more valuable as we approach the end of the Fantasy FC cycle, every upgrade matters. While Week 6’s boosts may seem limited, they’re critical for optimizing your squad—especially if you’re saving FC 25 Coins for endgame meta players. Surprisingly, we’ve already seen League Winner Upgrades confirmed in early April—proof that some teams are running away with their domestic titles.
From Blaise Matuidi and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia securing their league triumphs to Marcus Rashford and Darwin Núñez locking in key boosts, let’s break down all the essential upgrades from Week 6.
League Winners: Early Upgrades for Dominant Teams
Blaise Matuidi – +1 OVR & PlayStyle+
PSG have officially wrapped up Ligue 1, remaining unbeaten and continuing their domestic dominance. As a result, Matuidi receives another +1 OVR and a PlayStyle+ upgrade. For Fantasy FC players, this makes him an even more formidable defensive midfielder.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia – +1 OVR & PlayStyle+
Kvara has been one of the standout performers in Serie A, and with Napoli securing the title, he earns another +1 OVR and a PlayStyle+. What’s special here? He’s now the first active player outside of TOTY to have THREE PlayStyle+ traits—making him a must-have for any attacking lineup.
Key Player Upgrades: Who’s Rising & Who’s Falling?
Jamie Carragher – +1 OVR & Fullback++
Liverpool’s Merseyside Derby win over Everton secured Carragher’s first upgrade. Despite a loss to Fulham, the Reds are still pushing for goals—4 more against West Ham will trigger another upgrade. If Liverpool clinch the Premier League, expect even more boosts for Carra.
Darwin Núñez – +1 OVR & False Nine++
Another beneficiary of Liverpool’s Everton victory, Núñez is now one step closer to a third PlayStyle+ and another OVR upgrade if the Reds lift the title. His False Nine++ makes him a lethal option up front.
Marcus Rashford – +1 OVR, Poacher++, Rapid, & First Touch
Rashford silenced critics with a goal against Brighton, securing key upgrades. Now, if he avoids a yellow card against Southampton, he’ll get another +1 OVR and 5★/5★—making him one of the most complete forwards in the game.
Donyell Malen – +1 OVR, 5★ Skill Moves, Tiki Taka, & Low Driven Shot
Aston Villa’s late-season resurgence under Unai Emery has paid off for Malen. A last-minute goal in injury time against Brighton secured his upgrades, including the highly valuable Tiki Taka and Low Driven Shot traits.
Mathys Tel – +1 OVR, 5★ Weak Foot, Technical, & Quick Step
Tel’s upgrades came down to the wire—his win against Southampton and avoiding a booking secured his boosts. While his upgrades were minimal, the 5★ Weak Foot and Technical** combo makes him a strong bench option.
Nayef Aguerd – +2 OVR & 5★ Weak Foot
Real Sociedad’s two wins in their final fixtures locked in Aguerd’s upgrades. While he missed a clean sheet, avoiding a booking was enough for a +2 OVR boost—a great return for those who completed his SBC.
Conor Gallagher – +1 OVR, 5★ Skill Moves, Long Ball Pass, & Anticipate
Atlético Madrid only managed one win in four, but Gallagher avoided a card, ensuring his upgrade. His Long Ball Pass and Anticipate traits make him a solid midfield choice.
Arthur Theate – +1 OVR & 5★ Weak Foot
Another SBC pick, Theate, avoided bookings across his four matches, locking in his +1 OVR and 5★ Weak Foot—great for defensive flexibility.
Jean-Philippe Mateta – +1 OVR, False Nine++, Power Header+, & Low Driven Shot
After returning from injury, Mateta finally got his goal, securing major upgrades. His False Nine++ and Power Header+ make him a unique striker option for those needing a physical presence.
What’s Next for Fantasy FC?
With most upgrades now locked in, the focus shifts to final squad optimization. Key takeaways:
- Matuidi & Kvaratskhelia are must-haves if you want league-winning boosts.
- Rashford and Núñez could still get more upgrades if their teams perform.
- Malen, Tel, and Mateta are excellent budget-friendly options with strong traits.
Conclusion
With FUT 25 Coins at a premium, prioritize upgrades like Matuidi and Kvaratskhelia—their league-winning boosts are game-changers. Budget gems like Malen and Mateta offer huge value, while Rashford and Núñez could still climb higher. Spend wisely, and dominate the final stretch!
