EA FC 24 Path to Glory: The Knockouts - All the new players released in Ultimate Team squad

EA FC 24’s Ultimate Team is replacing its Greats of the Game roster with a new team of Path to Glory live player cards.

The line-up features 23 stars from the remaining nations in the Euros and Copa America, who can gain upgrades based on their team’s performance IRL. 

With all eyes on their quarterfinal clashes, England’s John Stones, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, and France’s Antoine Griezmann have made the cut. If their teams win, they’ll get a stats boost that keeps increasing if they keep up their streak. 

With ratings as high as 97 for the limited-time players, they could be match-winners in the right squad. To get them, you can either try your luck with packs, purchase them for eye-watering sums on the transfer market, or put in the work for the ones available through Squad-Based Challenges and Objectives.

We’ve listed all the players in the Path to Glory: The Knockouts promotion below.
