In previous years, the transfer market has taken a huge tumble ahead of FC 24 Coins Team of the Year as FUT players have sold off their teams to make sure they have coins in hand. With so many packs being opened during TOTY, supply goes through the roof, driving down prices and allowing everyone to buy things cheaply.
This year, it not quite so simple, because the puppetmaster economists at EA have been fiddling the market in new ways. Rare Gold players are historically cheap, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi both available for under 300k, while the most expensive Rare Gold of this cycle, Kylian Mbappe, is now under 900k. The sheer volume of high-quality special cards released through promos like Winter Wildcards means that very competitive teams can already be assembled on the cheap.
All of which is to say that there wont be a traditional market crash where everything valuable plummets overnight, because most cards are already at historic lows. We will probably see Prime Icons, and rare meta cards like FUT Hero David Ginola, take a short-term hit, but for the most part we will see a continuation of the gradual, steady decline in prices that has been going on for the last few months.
So is it worth selling your team? If all your coins are tied up in high-rated special cards, then yes. But if you decide to hang onto them, you wont lose anything like as much as you might have done previously. If youre still rocking golds, or mostly untradeable, you should be fine.
