Top 6 Must-Have TOTW 5 Players
TOTW 5 is headlined by Salah's highest-rated special card yet in FC 26, but there's more depth here than meets the eye. Let's explore the top performers worth pursuing for your club.
- Mohamed Salah (92 RW - Liverpool)
Why He's Meta:
Salah's 92 OVR TOTW version is arguably the best winger in the game right now outside of Icon and Trailblazer cards. With blistering pace (94), elite finishing (91), and improved stamina, this card dominates on the right flank. His dribbling stats (91 agility, 92 ball control) make him lethal in 1v1 situations.
Chemistry & Build Tips:
Works perfectly in Premier League + Egypt hybrid squads.
Link with Gakpo, Alexander-Arnold, or Darwin Núñez.
Apply the Marksman or Deadeye chemistry style for boosted shot power and composure.
Market Outlook:
Expect Salah's TOTW 5 card to maintain high demand — especially during Weekend League. Short-term flips after Squad Battles rewards could net solid profit.
- Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (86 ST - Marseille)
Why He's a Sleeper Pick:
Aubameyang's resurgence continues. This version adds +4 balance and +3 finishing from his base card, turning him into a viable Ligue 1 finisher. His 4-star weak foot and high attacking work rate make him an ideal striker for counterattacking builds.
Best Use Case:
Pair with Mbappé or Dembele for Ligue 1 chemistry.
Use Hawk for 97 pace and 91 finishing — perfect for direct playstyles.
Meta Role:
Budget-tier striker with elite finishing and movement. Great for EA Sports FC Coins early Weekend League squads or Road to Glory accounts.
