Heung Min Son and Rafael Leao might both be causing you quite a few problems on EA FC 24 this month, as the pair were both named as the Premier League and Serie A Players of the Month, respectively.
With this accolade, EA FC 24 has honoured their status in Ultimate Team with the usual POTM promo cards, which come as SBCs for players to complete.
But just a matter of days after the winger duo was released as POTM puzzles, EA appears to be adding them into the Trailblazers Team 2, and fans are livid.
Heung Min Son and Rafael Leao to be named in Trailblazers Team 2 and EA FC 24 fans are not happy
The Trailblazers promo is the first set of special cards that EA FC 24 has rolled out to all players; those in Early Access were awarded Nike Ready cards, although they had no physical benefits aside from XP farming and a cool card design.
But with all the players in the world to choose from, players are fuming that Son and Leao are amongst the soon-to-be-released batch, as a kick in the teeth for those who plundered "fodder" into the challenges.
One angered fan took to Twitter to say, "EA got to be taking the piss," while a second added, "THIS WAS A SETUP OMG."
"Let’s just drop the same cards all year actually, EA," a third fan joked.
Fans will also see Takefusa Kubo in the Trailblazers promo, who was the first La Liga POTM card, albeit he released a few weeks ago.
Why are Leao and Son in the Trailblazers promo?
The Trailblazers Ultimate Team promo in EA FC 24 is brand new this year, taking over from the first special card in FIFA 23: Rulebreakers.
It is designed to be a promo campaign which highlights players who have started the real-life football season especially well, which is why we already have players duplicating on special cards. Son and Leao are especially visible because of their POTM status, but other TOTW players have also been added.
Bellingham already had a TOTW card before his inclusion in Trailblazers, and now Team 2 is leaked to have Kane, another player to have been awarded a special card.
Its no surprise that these players are re-appearing in promos given their efforts so far, but it is a tough pill to swallow for anyone who has just completed these SBCs.
