FIFA 23 FUT Centurions predictions, latest player leaks and confirmed release date

A brand-new FIFA 23 Ultimate Team promo will be released today, called FUT Centurions.

The Winter Wildcards promo will conclude later tonight, with Team 2 currently available in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team Packs until 5.59pm GMT / 12/59pm ET / 9.59am PT, meaning the winter-themed promo will be replaced. EA Sports has now confirmed via a FUT loading screen that a brand-new promo will be introduced into Ultimate Team called FUT Centurions, celebrating players who have reached over 100 in either appearances, goals assists or clean sheets.

EA has confirmed that the promo is coming, but we only have a handful of information about it, mostly through leaks on social media, ahead of the official release of the event.

UPDATE: The FUT Centurions Team 1 squad has now been released into FIFA 23 Ultimate Team

So, what can we expect from the FUT Centurions promo in FIFA 23? Below are the latest leaks, predictions, expected release dates and what we know so far.

FIFA 23 FUT Centurions confirmed release date

EA Sports has confirmed that the FUT Centurions promo will be released on Friday, January 6 at 6pm GMT / 1pm ET / 10am PT. The promo is expected to last two weeks with two separate squads being released, meaning the promo is expected to come to an end on Friday, January 20, around the same time we could expect the TOTY promo to drop.

The official card design has also been revealed via a new FUT loading screen. The card consists of a gold and royal red colourway with a 3D '100' design in the background.

FIFA 23 Centurions leaks

With the promo set to be launched in FUT 23 later today, reliable leaker @FUTSheriff has started to announce some of the players who are set to feature in the Centurions squad. Here's a roundup of the latest players leaked ahead of the official release.

  • Ante Rebic (AC Milan)
  • Neymar (Paris Saint-Germain)
  • Presnel Kimpembe (Paris Saint-Germain)
  • Riyad Mahrez (Manchester City) - SBC release
  • Peter Gulasci (RB Leipzig) - Objective release
  • James Milner (Liverpool)
  • Jordi Alba (Barcelona)
  • Jamie Vardy (Leicester City)
  • Wissam Ben Yedder (AS Monaco)
  • Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool)

The players listed above could feature in Team 1 or 2 of the promo, whilst they may also be released as an SBC, Objective or mini-release, so if they aren't part of Team 1, they could still arrive in FUT at a later date. We won't know if any of these players are confirmed until the squad is released at 6pm GMT / 1pm ET / 10am PT later today.

FutSheriff has also shared some information on what the promo is all about on Twitter.

The tweet read: "Player Item upgrade celebrates a Centurion’s longevity in football, combining their 100+ caps (and sometimes 100+ goals, assists, or clean sheets)."

This means that any player who has hit 100+ in any of the stats listed above can qualify for the promo, so expect to see some of football's best players involved.
