eFootball 2026 keeps rewarding competitive players through the League (Division) phases, and this time the spotlight is on Show Time Fermín López as the Phase 8 reward. Again, this isn’t a card you can get immediately; players will only receive him after Phase 8 ends, provided they finish within the top 1,000,000 rankings.

That means there’s still time before the reward actually lands in everyone’s inbox. But since many players are currently grinding divisions to secure their spot, it’s worth taking an early look at what this card offers and whether the effort is actually worth it.

So, before the rewards are distributed, here’s my early review of Show Time Fermín López, breaking down his potential strengths, playstyle, and what you can realistically expect once he arrives.

Fermin Lopez

• Position: AMF
• Playing Style: Dummy Runner
• Show Time Skills: Low Screamer

This is honestly a very solid card on paper, and it might even end up being one of the best versions of him we’ve seen so far. The overall build looks superb. Everything important for an attacking midfielder is covered: dribbling, speed, shooting ability, and enough physical presence to not get bullied easily.

The biggest factor here is the Dummy Runner playstyle. It’s a very unique one in eFootball. I know there aren’t many fans here, but it is kind of fun. These players make extremely unpredictable runs, and that’s exactly what makes them dangerous.

On the ball, he should feel really smooth. The dribbling set looks excellent, so carrying the ball through midfield or turning in tight areas shouldn’t be a problem at all. The skill set also helps a lot here, as it already includes the important skills.

Shooting is another area where he looks promising. Even though his finishing isn’t striker-level, the kicking power is a massive advantage, which means long shots and low screamers should be very effective. Another huge bonus is that he’s comfortable with both feet, passing, and shooting on both.

One thing I’d strongly suggest once he arrives is to position him at SS. With his movement, dribbling, and shooting ability, he could become a really dangerous second striker. Dummy Runner movement from the SS position can be extremely hard for defenses to deal with, and I think that’s where this card will shine the most.
