What is Skill Point?
Skill Point is used to upgrade the Skills attribute of players. Each position has different Skills to upgrade.
Every time your players move up a Rank, you’ll earn 1 Skill Point. So, for each player in each position (up to Rank 5), you can gather a maximum of 5 Skill Points.
Choose Skills Wisely for Your Game.
While you have the freedom to choose which Skills to boost, it’s crucial to make thoughtful selections.
Old cards from FC Mobile 25 have six available Skills (except for goalkeepers). The first three Skills can be upgraded up to level 3, and once you upgrade any of them to level 3, you’ll unlock access to one of the last three advanced Skills. Since you only have five Skill Points, it’s important to plan carefully which Skills to upgrade and unlock.
A key strategy is to avoid spending your Skill Points on every basic Skill, as this can be counterproductive. Instead, focus on unlocking at least one advanced Skill, this is crucial for optimizing your preferred playstyle for a specific card.
In FC Mobile 26, the new cards have been simplified to five Skills. The first two Skills can be upgraded to level 2, and unlocking the second Skill requires the first to reach level 2. Once Skill 2 is fully upgraded, you’ll have one Skill Point left to choose one of the three advanced Skills (Skill 3, Skill 4, or Skill 5), each with only one level.
Each advanced Skill boosts different stats, so choose the one that best fits your playstyle.
You can make your full-backs help with attacks or stay behind, or choose if your midfielders should be all over the field, strong defenders, or great passers. You get to decide by improving their skills the way you like.
How to Get Skill Points
In order to get Skill Points, you have to Rank Up your players. You will earn 1 Skill Point for every Rank Up you make.
You can’t buy and sell Skill Points on the Market, or pull them from packs. You can only acquire them from Rank Up.
Learn more about Rank Up in the new season here: FC Mobile 26 Rank Up Guide.
How to Use Skill Points
After each Rank Up, you’ll notice the Skill Points button as shown below:
You can also access it from the Player Details page:
Tap the button to access the Skill Points page.
On the Skill Points page, tap the + button on the right side of each Skill to upgrade it, or tap the – button to revert the upgrade.
You can also tap the Skill icons to see the preview of attributes upgraded by those skills.
Once you click the Confirm button on the bottom-right corner, your chosen Skills will become active.
Additionally, you have the option to reset all your Skills by using 100 FC Points. Just click on the Reset All button in the bottom-left corner.
Easy, right?

Dude you sure this is right?
Cause it doesn’t let you to upgrade the selected skill. Instead, the below skills in the list gets clickable, if you only boost the previous skill?
Or am I totally mistaken, and made something wrong?
Yes, please reread the guide. There’s a difference in skill points between the old cards from FC Mobile 24-25 with the new cards from FC Mobile 26.
what skill point is best for :
107 cm toty icon Matthaus?
106 rw Garincha?
Thanks
What skill point is good for Touŕe
It depends on what you want him to do. Do you want him to focus more on defending or attacking? But Touré is a more defensively-minded CM than an offensive one, so I suggest using the Defending skill point for better technical defending or the Physical skill point if you want him to be stronger and more physical.
Please what skill points are best for retro stars Vidíc (Centre Back).
No-Nonsense Centre-Back
Thank you, I actually went for Aerial but I’ll change it and take your word for it. Thanks so much
Will their gameplay change with skill points? Like de bruyne with defending or physical gameplay will change?
Yes, of course. The stats improvements speak for themselves. Defending skill points will improve their defensive duties, physical skill points will enhance their physicality, and so on.
Not sure I understand the reset all skills button, is this a default, will I loose the skills already attributed to that player?
The skill reset button is used if you want to change the skill points you have used to other skills.
Please how do I access and reset the skill points of a player that is already fully ranked up and allocated
In the Skill Points page, tap on the ‘Reset All’ button in the bottom-left corner. But it’s not free, it costs 100 FC Points.
