Possible Neymar addition in Ultimate Team
The major update has added the Conmebol Libertadores and Conmebol Sudamericana, meaning Santos FC is finally in EA FC 26. They have been added on April 28, 2026.
Does everyone have just one question in mind? Is Neymar Jr. finally back in FC 26? The answer to this question is quite complicated for now. Let’s check out more details in this article.
Santos FC has been added with no real players
On April 28, 2026, FUTWIZ on X reported that Santos has now finally been added in FC 26. If you open your game, you can also find the team in the Brazilian Leagues.
However, fans quickly noticed a major thing. All the players are fake and have made up names in the team. There is not a single real person in the team.
For now, the team has been added without official player license, which is why they are using fictional names for the footballers.
That means Neymar is also not present in the team. This was a huge bummer for the fans who were waiting for Neymar Jr in the game.
Fans have been making jokes nonstop about the fictional and made-up players on this team.
Is Neymar Jr. going to be added to EA FC 26?
For now, Neymar is still not present in the game. However, do remember that this is not the Ultimate Team. Santos has finally been added to the game.
There is a very high chance that we might get a Neymar Jr. promo card in the future. How long will it take? No one knows for now, but the chances are very high.
Conclusion
Although the addition of Santos FC in FC 26 hyped up the fans, they were still quite disappointed as Neymar is still not available to play in the game.
However, there is a chance in the future that we might get him as a promo card for Ultimate Team. What are your thoughts on this? Do share your thoughts and views with us in the comments section.
