The Wide Back, Box Crasher, and Inverted Wingback roles will be introduced in FC 26. They are roles for the center-back, defensive midfielder, and left/right-back positions, respectively.

What each one of these roles does exactly in FC 26 is still not known, although they shouldn't deviate much from real life. After all, roles are supposed to replicate players' behaviour on the pitch, just like in real life.

It's likely more roles will be added to FC 26, but so far only these three have been confirmed by reliable leaks. We expect more roles for midfield and attacking positions, as well as goalkeepers.

There is also a chance that already existing roles undergo slight changes to better replicate players' behaviour on the pitch, making the gameplay more authentic.
