Cole Palmer EA FC 25 Player of the Month SBC: Complete Tasks and Affordable Solutions

EA Sports has officially introduced the EA FC 25 Cole Palmer Player of the Month (POTM) Squad Building Challenge (SBC) in Ultimate Team after the Chelsea star was selected as the top performer in the Premier League for September. The talented English midfielder has showcased remarkable skills, contributing both goals and assists for his team, resulting in a second special card this season.

Earlier this season, he received a Team of the Week card in TOTW 3 due to his outstanding four-goal performance against Brighton, but the EA FC 25 Cole Palmer POTM SBC card surpasses that one in quality. Rated at 87 overall, it features the Dead Ball+ PlayStyle, and the resources needed to acquire it reflect its exceptional in-game potential.

Requirements for the EA FC 25 Cole Palmer POTM SBC in Ultimate Team

Similar to the Khvicha Kvaratskhelia POTM SBC released recently, the EA FC 25 Cole Palmer POTM SBC requires players to finish three different squads. Notably, one squad is quite simple, demanding the submission of just a single player, which rewards players with a standard gold version of Marc Cucurella.

Task 1: Non-rare
