Summary
The EA FC 26 99-rated Pedri SBC is one of the biggest midfield challenges currently available in Ultimate Team. Released as part of the Summer Stars Tournament Winners content, Pedri arrives with elite stats, 5-Star Skill Moves and a 5-Star Weak Foot. With 10 squads required, the SBC can be costly, so players can buy EA FC 26 Coins to help complete it. But with the overall cost, is this Pedri card really worth it?
99 Pedri SBC Requirements
The SBC currently requires 10 squads to complete. The requirements range from 90-rated squads for the club, league and nation challenges to several 92-rated squads, plus a 91-rated squad requiring a special-form player. Current estimates put the total cost at around 456,500 coins on console, although market prices can change.
The main requirements include:
FC Barcelona: 90-rated squad with at least one Barcelona player
LALIGA: 90-rated squad with at least one LALIGA player
Spain: 90-rated squad with at least one Spanish player
Top Form: 91-rated squad with one TOTW, TOTS, FOF, FUTTIES or Ultimate Rewind player
Four 92-Rated Squads: 92 minimum team rating
Two 91-Rated Squads: 91 minimum team rating
The SBC is non-repeatable and is currently scheduled to expire on September 24, 2026.
Cheapest Pedri SBC Solutions
The best way to reduce the cost is to avoid buying every player directly from the market. Start by using your untradeable 90-92-rated fodder, especially duplicate high-rated cards sitting in your club. If you need extra budget to fill the gaps, cheap EAFC 26 Coins can make completing the SBC easier.
For the Barcelona, Spain and LALIGA squads, prioritize players that naturally satisfy the league or nationality requirements. Save your special cards for the Top Form squad, then use your highest-rated fodder on the 92-rated challenges.
Current solution estimates show individual squads ranging from roughly 33K to 56K coins, with the entire SBC around the mid-400K range.
99 Pedri Review
The reward is extremely impressive. Pedri has 94 PAC, 95 SHO, 99 PAS, 99 DRI, 90 DEF and 91 PHY, along with 5-Star Skills and a 5-Star Weak Foot.
His 99 Passing and 99 Dribbling make him particularly dangerous as a CM, CAM or CDM. His 97 Stamina, 98 Interceptions and 97 Standing Tackle also give him enough defensive ability to contribute in a box-to-box role.
Final Verdict
At around 456K coins, 99 Pedri looks like a strong SBC for players who already have plenty of fodder. His combination of 5/5, elite passing, dribbling and versatile midfield roles makes him one of the more complete midfielders available.
Rating: 9/10 - Highly Recommended, especially if you can complete him largely with untradeable fodder.
