As a reminder from FC 24, Evolutions are a fairly new addition to Ultimate Team designed to allow those lower-rated players to transform into more useful ones.
Different Evolution pathways have limits, usually capping specific attributes. Once you’ve chosen your player and fulfilled the requirements (usually after playing a select number of games or scoring a few goals), they’ll be upgraded.
If you’re stuck on who to upgrade, here are a few of our top picks for the FC 25 Evolutions.

Intro to Stat Limits Evolution: Best players, requirements & upgrades
The best players to use in the FC 25 Intro to Stat Limits Evolution are Marcus Rashford, Ángel Correa, Karim Adeyemi, Darwin Núñez and Iñaki Williams.
With the Evolution improving your player’s shooting and dribbling, we’re prioritising attacking players here, especially those in the top leagues with good pace.
Rashford, Adeyemi and Williams all have over 85 pace already, and can provide good links throughout the year in FC 25.
Outside of the wingers, Correa and Núñez both have consistent high base stats for strikers, especially in pace, shooting and dribbling, so upgrading either one of these could leave you with a great forward for those early Division Rivals or FUT Champs matches.

- Shooting: +3 (Max 86)
- Dribbling: +2 (Max 87)

Club Member Reward Evolution: Best players, requirements & upgrades
The best players to use in the Club Member Reward Evolution are Denzel Dumfries, Diogo Dalot and Nahuel Molina.
This Evolution gives the upgraded player the RB Falseback++ Role, so we’re only focusing on those who are primarily RBs, as opposed to pacey CBs who can also play on the right (sorry, Micky van de Ven fans).
Each of these players play in one of the top leagues for Ultimate Team chemistry. So, alongside their high pace and overall consistent stats, they’re great picks for the Club Member Reward.

Ultimate Edition Evolution: Best players, requirements & upgrades
The best Ultimate Edition Evolution players are Ángel Correa, Ciro Immobile and Nicolas Jackson.
Here, players cannot see their Pace go above 87, or their Shooting above 87, for example.
This means we want players who will hit those limits but benefit the most from the upgrades, which is why we chose Correa, Immobile and Jackson over Timo Werner and Randal Kolo Muani.
