Team of the Summer, Team of the Summer, where for art thou Team of the Summer? They say the best things come to those who wait and that patience is a virtue, which makes Matchday Champions players both virtuous and deserving. (We always knew it!)
Team of the Summer represents an exciting new card edition within Matchday Champions. This limited release pack contains cards featuring some of the most exciting football talent. Each of them has been given a solar infused boost in OVR to reflect their excellent performances during what was the already legendary Summer of Football. Not to mention new photos and a scenic, sunny design for the card backgrounds.
Which footballers is it possible to collect within this new edition? Lay down on that lounger, pop on those sunglasses, because this lineup is dazzling!
SIX Champions League titles don’t lie. Mr Reliable is brings a solidity to any defence. With a 90 OVR, and a stunning 94 DEF secondary stat, he should be a mainstay of any back line.
Dibuuuuu! The World Cup-winning goalkeeper who also happens to have transformed Aston Villa into a EUROPEAN POWERHOUSE! After Argentina’s unforgettable 2022 World Cup run, Martínez’s star continues to rise. Penalty wizard strike a pose. 92 OVR, big swag.
Queen Alexia is the essential Matchday player. Even more so with staggering 92 OVR. Her vision, technique, and leadership skills are unmatched, making her one of the most influential players in women’s football today.
Let them eat goals! Katoto has become one of the top forwards in Europe, and her 88-rated card reflects her ability to light up the scoreboard and leave defenders looking more lost than a tourist in the wrong arrondissement.
Rico the Rocket. His tireless running, sharp passing, and an eye for the odd screamer from distance make him a dangerous asset on both ends of the pitch. Real Madrid fans love him for his work ethic, and so do we. 87 OVR isn’t anything to sniff at either!
Yes, that Rodri. Calmly defusing any pressure from England in the Euro finals. Whether it’s breaking up attacks or starting them, Rodri is the heartbeat of any team he plays in, and his football IQ is off the charts. Flex that 93 OVR, the highest in the game right now!
At Inter, he’s a handful for defenders with his physicality and poacher’s instinct. Throw him in your squad, and you’ve got a forward who can hold the ball up, link play, and, most importantly, bury chances. Serie A’s top scorer by a mile, with a deserved 91 OVR.
It’s raining Martínez. Lisu goes into every tackle as if it’s a personal challenge. A fan favourite at Manchester United, where his defensive capabilities and fierce attitude have earned him the nickname ‘The Butcher’, along with a fearsome 91 OVR.
The defensive prodigy Saliba has cemented himself as a key figure in North London. With a combination of physicality and a calm demeanour on the ball, Saliba is the type of centre-back who makes defending look easy. A cool 90 OVR to tighten up your squad.
If you could bottle up footballing intelligence and talent, it would be called Jude Bellingham. The young Englishman is already one of the most sought-after midfielders in Europe, and his move to Madrid has him set to continue his rise to superstardom. Whether it’s dribbling, passing, or scoring, there’s little Bellingham can’t do. He’s basically the “cheat code” midfielder, and you’ll find him with a back of the net 91 OVR here. Top bins.
This 16-year-old sensation from Barcelona is the one to watch. His future in football looks brighter than that autumn ray of sunlight that hits you right in the eyes when you turn the corner. You know the one, just under the sunshade so you can barely see the road. This is why sunglasses are useful, people! 83 OVR, a huge jump from his season edition last year.
There you have it, the Team of the Summer pack is filled with world-class talent. They are ONLY available within Matchday Champions, so open up the game now, or make thee to an app store! Each pack contains one Team of the Summer edition card for certain (and possibly two)! It’s the best value pack we’ve ever done too, so don’t hesitate, these packs won’t be in the shop forever!
