How to Change Your Ultimate Team Name in EA Sports FC 26

EA Sports FC 26 once again gives players the chance to build their dream squad in Ultimate Team mode. You can tweak formations, set custom player instructions, upgrade your players, and even change your manager — allowing for nearly endless customization.

However, when you first start Ultimate Team, your club is given a random default name. This can feel a bit impersonal, but fortunately, you can rename it. The game doesn’t make this process obvious, so here’s a step-by-step guide to changing your Ultimate Team name.

Step-by-Step Guide to Renaming Your Ultimate Team

1. Access the Club Menu

From the Ultimate Team main screen, navigate to Club and select View Squad. This will display your active lineup.

2. Open the Team Management Menu

Press the left analog stick (L3) on your controller. This opens a side menu with several options.

3. Go to the Squad Selector

Choose Squad Selector to view all the squads you’ve created.

4. Select and Rename Your Squad

Highlight the squad you want to rename and press X (Xbox) or Square (PlayStation). A text box will appear, allowing you to type in your new club name.

5. Save Your Changes

Once you’re happy with the new name, press the Menu button (Xbox) or Options button (PlayStation) to save. Your squad name is now updated.

Important Things to Know

• Multiple Squads: If you have more than one squad, you’ll need to rename each one individually through the Squad Selector.
• Name Restrictions: EA Sports uses AI filters to block offensive names. Creative spelling or symbols might bypass the initial check, but if another player reports you or EA reviews your club name, you could face penalties — including a ban from Ultimate Team for up to two weeks.
