The former Real Madrid star’s Hero item features 5-star skills, 93 passing, and 91 dribbling, making him a strong choice for attacking plays. The SBC has eight squad-building challenges, requiring a mix of high-rated players and Team of the Week items.

On the other hand, the Chukwuemeka Objective offers a free Fantasy FC card by completing a set of in-game challenges. You’ll need to play in different modes and complete simple tasks like scoring with Bundesliga players or assisting with English players. The reward is a solid midfield option that can receive future upgrades based on real-life performances.
