- Add a photo. Keep the database photo or upload your own, then nudge it left, right, up or down and resize it until it fits the frame.
- Fine-tune the stats. Drag the eight stat sliders. Colours update just like in the game, and the total and average are shown below.

| ACC | Acceleration | How quickly the player reaches top speed |
| STA | Stamina | How long the player can keep running at full effort |
| STR | Strength | Winning physical duels and shielding the ball |
| CON | Control | First touch and dribbling |
| PAS | Passing | Accuracy of short and long passes |
| SHO | Shooting | Shot power and accuracy |
| TAC | Tackling | Winning the ball back |
| GKR | GK Reactions | Goalkeepers only — replaces STA |
| GKH | GK Handling | Goalkeepers only — replaces SHO |

Tips for a realistic card
- Keep stats in line with the overall rating. A 90+ OVR attacker usually has several blue (90+) attributes.
- Use a transparent PNG cut-out so the card background shows through around the player.

Frequently asked questions
Is this DLS 26 card creator free to use?
Yes. The DLS 26 Card Creator by SakibPro is 100% free. You can make unlimited player cards and game cards and download them in HD without creating an account.
How do I make a DLS 26 card of a real player?
Type the player's name in the "Load a real player" box and pick them from the list. Their photo, overall rating, position, nation, height, foot and all eight stats are filled in automatically, and you can then edit anything.
Can I upload my own photo?
Yes. Upload any image from your device, then use the position and size controls to fit it inside the card. A square, transparent PNG between 256×256 and 1024×1024 gives the cleanest result.
Which DLS 26 card types are supported?
All 12 current designs: Normal, Champion, World Winners, World Cup Heroes, Dream Star 25, Dream Star 26, Team of 2025, Classic, Kick Off, Dynamic Star, Season Pass, Cult Heroes. Every type can also be switched to its maxed version, and Dynamic Star cards support levels 1–7.
What does the Max card option do?
It switches the card to its maxed design: the card background and the OVR badge change to the maxed style used in the game. It does not change the rating, stats or price, so you stay in full control of every number.
Which stats can I customize?
Overall rating plus Speed, Acceleration, Stamina, Strength, Control, Passing, Shooting and Tackling. When the position is GK, Stamina and Shooting become GK Reactions and GK Handling.
What is the difference between a player card and a game card?
The player card is the square card on its own (1024×1024). The game card is the wider in-game profile view (1280×784) with the card, stats, height and foot, just like the player screen in Dream League Soccer 2026.
Can I make cards in other languages?
Yes. Card labels can be switched between English, Spanish, Portuguese and French, including translated stat names and positions.
Do created cards change my Dream League Soccer game?
No. Cards made here are images for fun and sharing. They do not modify your Dream League Soccer 2026 game, save data or account.
