Track every FC 27 Future Stars player and their progress towards live upgrades. Our Future Stars tracker follows domestic league starts, combined goals and assists, and clean sheets, so you can see which players are closing in on OVR, PlayStyle+ and 5-star Weak Foot rewards.
Upgrade tracking started on 9 October 2026, with upgraded Player Items scheduled to arrive on 3 February 2027. Requirements vary by position and league, with lower milestones for players in NWSL, MLS, Liga MX and LPF.
Future Stars Player Items have four performance milestones: two potential OVR upgrades, a PlayStyle+ reward and a 5-star Weak Foot reward. OVR boosts are capped at 86 and 87 respectively.
The following milestones apply to players outside NWSL, MLS, Liga MX and LPF.
| Requirement | Upgrade |
|---|---|
| 4 domestic league starts | +1 OVR (maximum 86) |
| 8 domestic league starts | +1 OVR (maximum 87) |
| ATT/MID: 7 combined goals + assists; DEF/GK: 4 clean sheets | +1 PlayStyle+ (maximum 1) |
| ATT/MID: 10 combined goals + assists; DEF/GK: 7 clean sheets | 5-star Weak Foot |
Players in these four leagues have lower requirements for the same upgrade rewards.
| Requirement | Upgrade |
|---|---|
| 2 domestic league starts | +1 OVR (maximum 86) |
| 3 domestic league starts | +1 OVR (maximum 87) |
| ATT/MID: 2 combined goals + assists; DEF/GK: 2 clean sheets | +1 PlayStyle+ (maximum 1) |
| ATT/MID: 4 combined goals + assists; DEF/GK: 3 clean sheets | 5-star Weak Foot |
ATT/MID: CM, CAM, LW, LM, RW, RM and ST earn their performance rewards from combined goals and assists. DEF/GK: GK, RB, LB, CB and CDM earn those rewards from clean sheets. CDM is in the DEF/GK group.
Only domestic league matches count. OVR milestones require a player to start matches; for a clean sheet to qualify, the player must feature in the match. Cup games, continental competitions and international matches are excluded.
A player who already has one PlayStyle+ receives an extra base PlayStyle instead. A player who already has 5-star Weak Foot receives 5-star Skill Moves instead.
