There are some new players in town, with EA adding to the roster of FC 24 Heroes in Ultimate Team! The new Hero cards are some of the best in Ultimate Team this season.
19 more FUT Heroes are contained in the class of ’24. This includes three female Heroes for the very first time in FC 24 Ultimate Team.
A new Hero player has now been released into packs, with UCL and UWCL cards on the way soon too. Find out everything you need to know about FUT Hero cards in FC 24 Ultimate Team below, including a full list, ratings, and versions.
Brand-new Hero added to packs
El Principe is here. Enzo Francescoli has finally joined the Heroes ranks, arriving in packs on November 3 at 2pm ET / 6pm UK.
The Uruguayan CF boasts an 88 overall. His key stats are 90 Dribbling and 88 Shooting, although his 86 Pace will excite plenty of fans too.
Francescoli looks set to have Argentinian league chemistry. This isn’t ideal for anyone looking to build a squad around him, but of course he will stay on maximum chemistry provided he is in position.

FUT Heroes explained
FUT Hero cards were introduced to us in FIFA 22, bringing club legends and cult heroes back to the game. Heroes are effectively second-tier Icons, although this feels harsh on certain players.
Some Heroes were previously Icons such as Jay-Jay Okocha. This switch has benefited them greatly thanks to the new chemistry system.
While Icons added an extra point to the nationality threshold, FUT Heroes add an extra point to the league threshold instead. (Icons have since been boosted to add a point to every league in your side, as well as players that share a nationality.)
Each FUT Hero has one base item at the start of FUT 24. This will then be upgraded throughout the campaign.
In FIFA 23, Heroes were then included in several promo events throughout the season. We saw this during the World Cup, Fantasy FUT, and Shapeshifters campaigns.
FC 24 UCL and UWCL FUT Heroes
EA Sports has unveiled its brand-new FC 24 FUT Heroes, with 19 players revealed. Each player has been re-imagined by Marvel as a comic book hero, and you can take them to the pitch in FC 24 Ultimate Team.
Every new FUT Hero this year will be remembered for how they performed both domestically and in Europe.
The selected players will be celebrated with a base version as well as a UEFA Champions League or UEFA Women’s Champions League version. This will commemorate their European greatness.
In FIFA 23 we saw World Cup Heroes. As this year will not have a World Cup, and EA has split with FIFA, these will not exist.
Instead, UCL and UWCL Heroes will be added to the game in late November. These new items will be among the first of the Campaign Hero items.
You could guarantee yourself a UCL or UWCL Hero in EA Sports FC 24 if you pre-ordered the game before August 22. The item will be untradeable and delivered on November 27.
We saw Hidetoshi Nakata and Jay-Jay Okocha change from Icons to FUT Heroes in FIFA 23. Rui Costa and Jari Litmanen have had the same treatment in FC 24.
The confirmed FC 24 UCL and UWCL Heroes and their ratings are as follows:
Player | Position | Overall | League |
Wesley Sneijder | CAM | 91 | Serie A |
