Sumario:The design study of the Future Circular Colliders (FCC) in a 100-km ring in the Geneva area has started at CERN at the beginning of 2014, as an option for post-LHC particle accelerators. The study has an emphasis on proton-proton and electron-positron high-energy frontier machines. In the current plans, the first step of the FCC physics programme would exploit a high-luminosity e+e- collider called FCC-ee, with centre-of-mass energies ranging from below the Z pole to the t-tbar threshold and beyond, followed by 100\,TeV proton-proton collisions as ultimate goal. When combined, these two steps offer a large palette of complementary measurements and sensitivity for new physics. In particular, the association of the FCC-ee and the FCC-hh allows measurements of the top-quark electroweak and Yukawa couplings to be performed with unrivaled precision.
