EA has released a new Lukas Podolski SBC and Objectives for Klaas-Jan Huntelaar as part of the annual Birthday promo in FIFA Ultimate Team, and we have everything you need to know to do them quickly.

FUT Birthday is the annual celebration of Ultimate Team’s inception and the party continues in FIFA 21 with an entire crop of brand new cards becoming available, and you can find out even more info on them at our official hub.

Through the brand new set of Birthday Objectives you’ll be able to unlock a highly decent 90 OVR Huntelaar card, and a brand new Squad Building Challenge gives you the opportunity to grab a 90-rated Lukas Podolski as well.

All the info on how to unlock both untradeable cards is below, beginning with the Huntelaar Objectives.

Huntelaar FUT Birthday: Objectives & rewards

The best part about Objectives is that if you have a squad or squads already up to the task, you can potentially knock them out for no cost whatsoever. Seeing as the reward here is a 90-OVR Huntelaar, it’s definitely worth considering.

There are five different objectives to knock out before claiming the Dutch striker as your own, listed down below:

  • Assist 4 goals with Through Balls using Forwards in the Live FUT Friendly: Managerial Masterpiece
    • Reward: 75+ rated rare player + 250 XP

Long Ranger

  • Score 2 Outside of the Box goals in the Live FUT Friendly: Managerial Masterpiece
    • Reward: 75+ rated rare player + 250 XP

Goal Getter

    • Reward: 75+ rated rare player + 250 XP

Podolski FUT Birthday SBC requirements

There are only two sets of requirements to knock out here to grab another highly decent Striker card, which isn’t all that bad compared to other SBCs we’ve seen in the past.

One will focus on his time with Bayern Munich, while the other is focused on his German national team. The full requirements are listed down below:

Bayern München

  • Number of players from FC Bayern: Min 1
  • In Form Players: Min 1
  • Squad Rating: Min 82
  • Team Chemistry: Min 75
  • Number of players in the Squad: 11
  • Reward: 1 Gold Players Pack

National Duty

  • Number of players from Germany: Min 1
  • Squad Rating: Min 85
  • Team Chemistry: Min 70
  • Number of players in the Squad: 11
  • Reward: 1 Small Rare Gold Players Pack

Podolski FUT Birthday SBC cost

Though there are only two sets of squads you’re required to build here, but at 227,000 to 276,000 FUT Coins to complete according to FUTBIN, it doesn’t exactly break the bank, but it isn’t quite a bargain either.

  • PS4: 227,000
  • XBox: 228,000
  • Origin: 276,000

Podolski FUT Birthday SBC solutions

Below are some of the cheapest solutions to Podolski’s new Birthday SBC, and as always, none of what we suggest will require any loyalty or position change cards to complete.
