The Ultimate Midfield Makeover: Top Players for EA Sports FC 25's 'Toon Squad' Evolution
Athletic Bilbao, SpainSun Mar 09 2025
EA Sports FC 25 has introduced a new way to transform your team with the 'Toon Squad' Evolution. This feature allows players to convert a striker into a central midfielder. The process can be completed using 60, 000 Coins or 400 EAFC Points. It's a fun way to give your strikers a new role on the field.
The 'Toon Squad' Evolution is inspired by Joelinton, a player who made a similar switch in real life. The evolution is all about turning strikers into versatile midfielders. To do this, you need to pick a striker with specific qualities. The striker must have a maximum rating of 88, 88 Pace, and 88 Physicality. They can have up to three total positions and no more than 10 PlayStyles, with two of those being PlayStyle+. The striker can be either their primary or secondary position, giving you a wide range of options.
Once you've chosen your striker, they'll get some serious upgrades. Their overall rating can go up to 90, with significant boosts in Pace, Shooting, Passing, Dribbling, Defending, and Physical attributes. They'll also gain a new position as a central midfielder and a PlayStyle+ called Pinged Pass. This makes them a valuable addition to your team.
There are nine standout players who are perfect for this evolution. These players come from different leagues and clubs, each bringing unique skills to the table. Some of these players have better links, making them more popular choices. Others have special PlayStyles that make them stand out. A few can even be upgraded further, adding to their appeal.
Let's start with Oihan Sancet from Athletic Bilbao. He's known for his versatility and can play both as a striker and a midfielder. With four-star skill moves and a four-star weak foot, he's comfortable in most situations. His stats, including 86 Attacking Positioning, 86 Finishing, 88 Ball Control, 90 Dribbling, and 90 Composure, make him a top choice.
Next up is Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid. He's known for his natural talent and instinct, which he showcased with a stunning goal against Real Madrid. Alvarez can play as an attacking midfielder and can be converted to a central midfielder with this evolution. His stats, including four-star skills, a four-star weak foot, 86 Finishing, 90 Defensive Awareness, and 83 Stand Tackle, make him a great all-rounder.
Wayne Rooney, the English icon, is another excellent choice. He started his career as a striker at Everton but later became a central midfielder. Now, as a manager, he can become a superstar again with this evolution. His stats, including a four-star weak foot, 90 Attacking Positioning, 89 Finishing, 92 Shot Power, and 83 Stand Tackle, show his versatility.
Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the greatest players of all time, is also on the list. He's known for his goal-scoring ability and athleticism. With this evolution, he can become 'meta' in EA Sports FC 25 again. His stats, including five-star skills, a four-star weak foot, 94 Ball Control, 85 Dribbling, and 99 Composure, make him a dominant force on the field.
Ivan Toney, who moved to Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia, is another player to consider. Despite the move, he's still a top striker in EA Sports FC 25. This evolution would make him a member of the 'Gullit Gang', with stats like 89 Stand Tackle, 90 Attacking Positioning, 93 Finishing, and 91 Shot Power.
Jorge Campos from MLS is not usually a popular choice, but he could be a game-changer with this evolution. He can become part of the 'Gullit Gang' and has impressive stats like four-star skill moves, a four-star weak foot, 91 Agility, 86 Balance, 90 Reactions, and 88 Ball Control. He's a great choice if you need someone who never stops running in the final third.
Luuk de Jong from PSV Eindhoven is another effective striker who can benefit from this evolution. He's not as effective as he once was, but with this evolution, he can become a striker-turned-midfielder with impressive stats like four-star skill moves, a five-star weak foot, 93 Defensive Awareness, 87 Stand Tackle, 91 Ball Control, 86 Dribbling, and 91 Composure.
Edinson Cavani, once one of the world's best strikers, is another player who can benefit from this evolution. He has a Flashback SBC in EA Sports FC 25 to celebrate his prime, and with this evolution, he can become even better. His stats, including five-star skills, 98 Attacking Positioning, 92 Finishing, 94 Shot Power, 89 Ball Control, 86 Dribbling, and 96 Composure, make him a top choice.
Mikel Merino from Arsenal is known for his versatility. He played up front for the Gunners and scored twice, earning himself an in-form card. With this evolution, he can become even better with stats like 92 Reactions, 91 Ball Control, 89 Dribbling, and 86 Composure. He's a great choice if you need a player who can defend well.
