The EA FC 25 Grassroots Greats promo has finally arrived at Ultimate Team, and it brought many incredible cards. It's arguably the second-best promo of EA FC 25, only behind the incredibly popular TOTY.
Grassroots Greats has a mix of current world-class players, such as Dybala and Bruno Fernandes, with legends like Maradona, Baggio, and Foudy. The promo celebrates players who didn't come from elite academies but started in local leagues or lower tiers and made their way to the world stage.
Most of these cards can be considered meta, especially the Icons, and because of that, they are incredibly expensive.
A Truly Great Promo
To headline a great promo, you need a great player, that's why having Maradona as the face of Grassroots Greats makes perfect sense. The card of the Argentinian legend is not only amazing, but it's on the upper echelon of meta cards and elite card among elite cards.

There are other football icons in this promo, such as Baggio, Drogba, and Ribery, whose cards are also nothing short of spectacular. Getting your hands on some of them might prove a challenge, but that's because they can significantly improve your squad.
But football, like everything in life, is not about the past but the present and future. That's why the Grassroots Greats promo also brings world-class players like Bruno Fernandes, Olise, Araujo, and David and players who are on their journey there like Vicario, Watkins, and Führich.
While the Grassroots Greats promo has many fantastic cards, it also has its fair share of fodder players, as all promos do. But these are high-rated fodder cards, so they can at least be useful in upcoming SBCs.
