What is the cheapest 87 in FIFA 21?

While many Squad Building Challenges are released in FIFA 21 to test your knowledge of the clubs, leagues, and nations of its thousands of players, others give you the chance to earn rewards based solely on how many high-rated players you’re willing to part with.

The likes of the Puzzle Master SBC and the First XI SBC torment FIFA players’ brains with their complexity, however other puzzles prefer to test players’ willingness to part with their clubs’ top ballers. This is particularly true with SBCs that reward you with special cards – like Road to the Final, Player of the Month cards, or Icons.

So, if you want to get your hands on those cards, you’re going to need some high-rated players to trade in. If you’re club is looking a little thin on the ground for anything 83 and over, have no fear, as we’ve compiled a list of high-rated Ultimate Team cards you can scoop up from the Transfer Market for cheap, and highlighted a few more useful players that are good value for completing most of these top end SBCs.

What traits cause a player in FIFA Ultimate Team to be given the label of ‘SBC fodder’? Well, a combination of a high overall rating but an uncommon nation, obscure league, or undesirable stats that results in a low price on the transfer market, that’s what.

These are the players that won’t really earn you a big payday by selling them, won’t help in dishing out a lot of chemistry in your squad, and certainly won’t be a useful player for winning matches.

However, they can be extremely useful for completing SBCs with high rating requirements. Below, we’ll run through the cheapest options currently available for each overall rating between 83 and 90, but be warned: if your SBC is reliant on a lot of chemistry, these may not be the best options. They’re usually from obscure countries and leagues, and often play in awkward positions.

Nevertheless, here they are:
