FIFA 21 EFL Championship Squad Foundations: first cards, how to unlock, Objectives

There are some hidden gems in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team’s EFL Championship roster, and the new EFL Championship Squad Foundations promotion makes it easier than ever to snag them. Here’s everything you need to know.

FIFA 21 Ultimate Team has been in full-flight for a while now, and to keep things fresh, EA has been coming up with different challenges and objectives. 

EFL Championship Squad Foundations is one of their latest promotions. It revolves around players completing objectives using EFL Championship players to unlock exclusive player cards.

Here’s a quick look at who they are, and what you need to do to unlock them.

FIFA 21 EFL Championship Squad Foundations player cards

You can earn three player cards from completing the EFL Championship Squad Foundations.

• Bradley Dack: 82 Overall English CAM for Blackburn Rovers
• Joshua King: 84 Overall Norweigen CF for Bournemouth
• Scott Sinclair: 82 Overall English LM for Preston North End

All three player cards would be a welcome addition to any team. No disrespect to Bradley Dack, but Joshua King and Scott Sinclair are particularly desirable due to their exceptional pace.

Of course, no players from the EFL Championship will compare to the best cards in the meta. However, they’re still very good, especially if you’re interested in building an EFL Championship team.

Plus, you can always use them to boost your squad’s bench or finish a tricky high-rated Squad Building Challenge some time in the future.
