FIFA 22: How to plan for a TOTS market crash

gamepur.com:

In FIFA Ultimate Team, players will notice that the transfer market sometimes moves up and down depending on what’s happening in the game. Some of these market changes are random, but a few can be predicted if you pay attention to the yearly calendar.

For example, if you currently have a 90 OVR FUT Captain in your club, his price will likely go down once TOTS hits because those high-rated cards are now much easier to pack. Depending on links, those older cards could rise in price temporarily, but they’ll eventually come down.
