The introduction of new Icons would offer Ultimate Team players new opportunities for team-building, strategic experimentation, and competition. Icons, with their flexible chemistry and high stats, allow players to craft lineups that blend stars from different leagues and nationalities without sacrificing team chemistry. This flexibility opens up endless possibilities for squad creation, enabling players to combine the likes of Lionel Messi with Johan Cruyff, or build a FC 26 Coins midfield duo of Patrick Vieira and Jude Bellingham.

Alongside the new Icons, leaks suggest that new Heroes will also be added to buy EA FC 26 Coins. Heroes differ from Icons in that they represent players who may not be considered global legends but have still achieved great success in specific moments or seasons. These fan-favorite players, while not as universally renowned as Icons, will bring additional nostalgia and excitement to the game. Heroes could include players from recent years or those who had memorable stints in top-tier clubs, offering fans the chance to relive their favorite moments on the pitch.
