The latest update to eFootball 2026 features a powerful new set of players called the Big Time and Epic National All Stars. The highlight is Big Time Eden Hazard, but the lineup also includes legends like Zlatan Ibrahimović, Wesley Sneijder, Pepe, Frank Lampard, Dragan Stojković, and even manager Pep Guardiola – it’s a very strong collection of talent.
These players look good on paper, but actually getting one of them will be challenging. This makes things a bit complicated – you have to consider not only how good the players are, but also whether it’s worth trying given the difficulty.
eFootball 2026 Big Time and Epic National All Stars players
Eden Hazard
- Position: AMF
- Playing Style: Hole Player
- Show Time Skill: Momentum Dribbling and Magnetic Feet
This player appears to be one of the best dribblers in the game, and could even be the very best at carrying the ball right now. The combination of their skills creates an incredibly difficult challenge for defenders, especially considering their already excellent close control.
He’s incredibly skilled at dribbling, keeping close control of the ball, and maintaining his balance. Plus, he’s exceptionally fast and quick. In today’s game, that combination makes him a dominant player. With his excellent passing ability – consistently rated in the 90s – he can both create opportunities and drive the ball forward himself.
His best feature is definitely his build – he’s perfectly sized for dribbling. He also shoots consistently well, and his weak foot is surprisingly accurate, which is a huge benefit.
Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Fighting Spirit, Pinpoint Crossing, Marseille Turn, Flip Flap
Suggested Booster(s): Off The Ball, Agility
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Eden Hazard
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 6 | 12 | 10 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Zlatan Ibrahimovic
- Position: CF
- Playing Style: Fox in the Box
- Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Finishing and Bullet Header
It’s a bit disappointing that this card doesn’t feel much different from his previous one, but we can overlook that thanks to his strong skill combination. While the stats are a step down from his last card, the combination of Phenomenal Finishing and Bullet Header makes this one of the most dangerous strikers currently available.
Standing at 195cm, this player is a dominant force in the air thanks to his physicality, jumping ability, and excellent heading skills. The ‘Bullet Header’ trait further enhances this strength, and recent improvements to his off-ball movement mean he’ll make even more impactful runs into the box, creating better attacking opportunities.
He’s an exceptionally clinical finisher, consistently scoring even from difficult opportunities. He also has a powerful kick, meaning he doesn’t always need perfect shots to find the back of the net. While his dribbling and close control are okay, they aren’t polished enough for consistent ball-carrying, making him best suited as a player who finishes attacks.
Suggested Skills: One Touch Pass, Through Passing, Outside Curler, Double Touch, Chip Shot Control
Suggested Booster(s): Striker’s Instinct, Off The Ball
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Zlatan Ibrahimović
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 1 | 7 | 10 | 10 | 6 | 0 | 0 |
Wesley Sneijder
- Position: AMF
- Playing Style: Creative Playmaker
- Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Pass and Blitz Curler
This player is a traditional attacking midfielder, but with a significant ability to score goals. This is due to a combination of his natural kicking power, excellent curve on his shots, and a specific skill called ‘Blitz Curler’.
He’s playing really well and it’s hard to find fault with his game. He excels at keeping possession and dribbling, which are always strong suits for him. His passing is excellent, especially with the ‘Phenomenal Pass’ ability, and his overall stats are impressive.
He’s a strong shooter, consistently performing well in that area. While he isn’t the fastest player, his skill as a creative playmaker is impressive. His only real weakness is a lack of exceptional physical ability, but otherwise, he’s well-rounded.
Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Sole Control, Flip Flap, Fighting Spirit, Outside Curler
Suggested Booster(s): Striker’s Instinct
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Wesley Sneijder
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 6 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
Pepe
- Position: CB
- Playing Style: Destroyer
- Show Time Skill: Fortress and Long Reach Tackle
This defensive card is very aggressive, much like his original Legend card. Players can expect strong tackling and a powerful physical presence. The Long Reach Tackle ability is a welcome addition, helping to compensate for his relatively shorter leg reach as a cornerback.
This Destroyer is surprisingly fast, making him agile and able to recover quickly in fights. He also excels in close combat, usually winning one-on-one battles. The main drawback is his lack of Aerial Fort. I also don’t think much of his Fortress skill – it just doesn’t seem very effective.
Suggested Skills: One Touch Pass, Captaincy
Suggested Booster(s): Shutdown
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Pepe
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 9 | 8 | 8 | 11 | 0 |
Frank Lampard
- Position: CMF
- Playing Style: Box-to-Box
- Show Time Skill: Low Screamer
This player is a powerful attacking midfielder, and simply calling him a ‘box-to-box’ player doesn’t quite capture his abilities. His key strengths lie in his shooting, powerful kicks, and ability to finish plays. He’s a threat from long range, and his low, driven shots are also a real asset.
He consistently scores from distance and reliably contributes goals from the midfield. His passing is top-notch, and he’s a capable dribbler who can advance the ball. However, we’ve seen cards that excel in both passing and dribbling more. A key oversight was not assigning him the ‘Hole Player’ trait, as he’s better suited to an Advanced Midfielder role.
Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Pinpoint Crossing, Weighted Pass, Low Lofted Pass
Suggested Booster(s): Agility
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Frank Lampard
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 8 | 2 | 6 | 0 |
Dragan Stojkovic
- Position: AMF
- Playing Style: Classic No. 10
- Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Pass
Stojkovic is a highly specialized player with a classic attacking midfielder style. While his skills are effective, they aren’t suitable for every team, making him a bit of a niche pick. That said, he has potential beyond what his numbers suggest, so it’s worth keeping him on your radar.
This player excels at dribbling, keeping close control of the ball, and maintaining balance – they’re really strong in those areas. Their passing is also excellent, and they have a special ability called Phenomenal Pass. While they can shoot okay, it’s not their biggest strength. They’re better at creating opportunities for others through dribbling and playmaking. You can customize their development to focus on making them a more specialized, skillful player.
Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Long Range Shooting, Weighted Pass, Pinpoint Crossing
Suggested Booster(s): Breakthrough
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Dragan Stojković
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 8 | 10 | 9 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Pep Guardiola
- Position: DMF
- Playing Style: Orchestrator
- Show Time Skill: Visionary Pass
This card is similar to his Barcelona card featuring Romario and Koeman. If you enjoy players who build up attacks with careful passing, he’s a great fit. Otherwise, you might find him a bit lacking. His short and long passing are excellent, and his Visionary Pass trait makes his distribution even better.
He can put up good defensive numbers, potentially reaching the 90s, but improving him will require the skills I’ve described. While he isn’t slow, he doesn’t have the quick bursts of speed or physical strength that most top midfielders have today, which makes him seem less imposing.
Suggested Skills: Double Touch, Man Marking, Sliding Tackle, Pinpoint Crossing
Suggested Booster(s): Duelling
Suggested Progression Points Allocation for Pep Guardiola
| Shooting | Passing | Dribbling | Dexterity | Lower Body Strength | Aerial Strength | Defending | GK 1/2/3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 10 | 6 | 9 | 9 | 1 | 9 | 0 |
