Is the complete Future Stars Team 2 squad confirmed?
EA's official overview does not publish a complete Team 2 player list. Rather than present rumours as confirmed names, check the live promo squad and EA's channels for player availability.
We will update the player list when it can be verified.
Future Stars Academy is still relevant
EA's Academy progression spans four Evolutions for eligible ST or CAM players born on or after 9 October 2003. The official illustration shows Sullivan progressing from 81 to 85 OVR.
The image below illustrates the Academy progression, not Team 2 cards or the new PlayStyle+ Lab.
