FC 26 has launched a new Pre-Season Macario objective, giving players another step towards unlocking the 99-rated FUTTIES Icon version of Baggio. The objective is made up of four separate tasks, each with its own squad-building requirements, but players can save time by building a single team that satisfies all the conditions at once rather than completing them one by one.

The recommended squad needs at least two USA players, a formation featuring a CAM, at least three NWSL players, and a minimum of six first-owned (non-market) players. With this line-up, players must win eight matches, win at least three by two goals or more, and register five assists from their CAM, typically requiring a minimum of eight Squad Battles games (or Live Events, Rivals or Champions) on at least Semi-Pro difficulty. Rewards include multiple packs of 88+ and 84+ Rare Gold Players, 100 Pre-Season Tokens, and the 97-rated Macario FUTTIES item itself.
