eFootball POTW Worldwide 17 Sep: Best Players & Picks

The eFootball POTW Worldwide 17 Sep '26 pack is now live, bringing 11 new Trending cards into Dream Team after the September 17 maintenance. Unlike the European Club Championship POTW released at the same time, this Worldwide selection is built around domestic league performances and gives players a very different mix of positions.

The headline cards are Giuliano Simeone, Elliot Anderson and David Raya, but the pack also has several useful options for midfield, full-back and center-back roles. For players who do not need another elite attacker, this is the more balanced of the two September 17 POTW packs.

Here is the full lineup, the strongest cards and which pulls offer the most practical value.

POTW Worldwide 17 Sep full lineup

The live Worldwide pack contains:

• Giuliano Simeone

• Elliot Anderson

• David Raya

• Álvaro Carreras

• Felix Nmecha

• Lewis Dunk

• Can Uzun

• Sven Mijnans

• Stanislav Lobotka

• Franco Mastantuono

• Xavi Espart

This is the final live selection after maintenance, not a pre-release prediction list.

The pack has no Yamal or Haaland-level superstar at the top, but it compensates with stronger positional variety. There is a goalkeeper, center-back, two full-back options, multiple central midfielders, creative attackers and a versatile forward.

Giuliano Simeone is the headline attacking card

Giuliano Simeone is the highest-rated attacking card in the pack.

His POTW version is listed at 96 OVR with a 97 maximum overall, registered primarily at RMF with the Hole Player attacking style. He also has familiarity at LMF, both wing positions and CF.

The raw profile is built around movement and speed:

• 90 Speed

• 91 Acceleration

• 87 Dribbling

• 85 Tight Possession

• 82 Finishing

• 90 Stamina

That gives Simeone a very direct role. He can start wide, attack open space and continue making runs late into matches.

His skill set includes Double Touch, Long-range Curler, First Time Shot, One Touch Pass, Pinpoint Crossing, Outside Curler, Track Back and Super Sub.

For managers who use wide midfielders aggressively, Simeone is one of the easiest cards in this pack to fit immediately.

Elliot Anderson may be the most complete pull

Elliot Anderson is arguably the most useful all-round card in the Worldwide selection.

He is listed at 95 OVR and 97 maximum overall, with DMF as his primary position and a Box-to-Box style on both attacking and defensive phases.

His numbers are unusually balanced for a weekly card:

• 85 Ball Control

• 85 Low Pass

• 83 Lofted Pass

• 83 Defensive Awareness

• 87 Tackling

• 84 Aggression

• 90 Defensive Engagement

• 85 Speed

• 85 Acceleration

• 90 Stamina

Anderson also comes with One Touch Pass, Through Passing, Man Marking, Interception, Blocker and Fighting Spirit.

That combination makes him useful in both phases. He can circulate the ball, press, recover possession and still cover ground quickly.

For accounts that need a DMF or central midfielder rather than another forward, Anderson may be the best practical pull in the entire pack.

David Raya is the top goalkeeper

David Raya is the pack's dedicated goalkeeper target.

His card sits at 95 OVR with a 97 maximum overall, using High Line GK in attack and Attacking GK defensively.

His key goalkeeper stats are:

• 89 GK Awareness

• 89 Catching

• 87 Parrying

• 88 Reflexes

• 88 Reach

Raya also has GK Low Punt, GK Long Throw, GK Penalty Saver and Fighting Spirit.

He is especially useful for teams that play with a higher defensive line and want a goalkeeper comfortable stepping away from goal.

Players who already own an Epic or Show Time goalkeeper may not need him, but for newer or mid-level accounts, Raya is a very clean upgrade.

Álvaro Carreras is one of the strongest full-backs

Álvaro Carreras is easy to overlook because he is not one of the first three names in the pack, but his profile is strong.

He is listed at 94 OVR and 96 maximum overall, with Attacking Full-back as his offensive style and Covering Role defensively.

His physical numbers are excellent for LB:

• 88 Speed

• 87 Acceleration

• 88 Stamina

• 80 Physical Contact

• 85 Dribbling

He also has One Touch Pass, Through Passing, Interception and Blocker, giving him more two-way value than a pure attacking full-back.

For squads that still use a Standard or older Highlight LB, Carreras may be one of the most useful pulls in the pack.

Felix Nmecha offers size and midfield speed

Felix Nmecha brings a different central midfield profile.

At 94 OVR and 95 maximum overall, he combines a 190 cm frame with 88 Speed, 84 Acceleration, 87 Kicking Power and 80 Physical Contact.

He also has 84 Low Pass, 82 Lofted Pass, 84 Ball Control and 85 Dribbling.

Because he uses Box-to-Box, Nmecha works best in systems where the CMF is expected to cover large areas rather than stay fixed in front of the defense.

He does not have Anderson's defensive numbers, but his size, movement and technical ability make him useful for players who want a more physical central midfielder.

Lewis Dunk is the defensive specialist

Lewis Dunk is the most traditional center-back in the selection.

His card is listed at 94 OVR with a 95 maximum, with Build Up in attack and High Line Master defensively.

His core defensive values are strong:

• 88 Defensive Awareness

• 87 Tackling

• 88 Aggression

• 89 Defensive Engagement

• 86 Physical Contact

At 192 cm, he also offers useful size for aerial defending.

Dunk comes with Man Marking, Interception, Blocker, Aerial Superiority, Captaincy and Fighting Spirit.

The limitation is mobility. His 80 Speed is respectable, but 71 Acceleration means he is better when positioned correctly than when forced into repeated recovery runs.

Can Uzun is a flexible attacking midfielder

Can Uzun gives the pack a more technical AMF.

His card is listed at 93 OVR and 95 maximum overall, using the Hole Player style.

He combines 87 Ball Control, 87 Dribbling, 88 Tight Possession, 82 Low Pass, 82 Finishing and 86 Acceleration.

He can also cover CMF, both wings, SS and CF, which makes him valuable as a bench option.

For accounts without a premium AMF, Uzun is a useful pull because he can create, carry and arrive in scoring areas without being locked to one position.

Lobotka, Mijnans, Mastantuono and Xavi Espart

The rest of the pack still has useful niche options.

Stanislav Lobotka is an Orchestrator DMF with 86 Low Pass, 83 Lofted Pass, 83 Tackling and 87 Aggression. He is better suited to possession-focused teams than physical midfield battles.

Sven Mijnans is a 190 cm Deep-Lying Forward who can also cover midfield and wide roles. His combination of 87 Kicking Power, 84 Ball Control and 80 Finishing makes him a flexible utility attacker.

Franco Mastantuono is the dribbling-focused option. He has 87 Dribbling, 88 Tight Possession, 87 Speed and 88 Acceleration, making him useful as an RMF, AMF or RWF.

Xavi Espart is a versatile full-back with 87 Speed, 89 Acceleration and 89 Stamina, plus familiarity on both sides and in midfield.

None of these cards are obvious headline pulls, but they can still solve specific roster gaps.

Best picks from POTW Worldwide

For most players, the top tier of this pack is:

Elliot Anderson — best all-round midfield value.

Giuliano Simeone — best attacking option and strongest wide runner.

David Raya — best choice for accounts needing a goalkeeper.

Just behind them, Álvaro Carreras is one of the most practical defensive upgrades, while Nmecha and Dunk are solid role-specific cards.

The pack's strength is its number of usable outcomes across different positions.

Should you draw?

POTW Worldwide 17 Sep is a good pack for players who want balance rather than pure star power.

If your squad already has elite attackers but still needs help at DMF, LB, GK or CB, this pack may actually fit better than the European Club Championship selection.

Players with developed Epic squads should be more selective. POTW cards are immediately usable, but they do not offer the same long-term progression ceiling as top Epic or Big Time cards.

Spend only if several cards can improve your squad.
