Thanks to our friends at EasySBC, take a look at who we recommend below.

Josko Gvardiol (OVR 82)

Man City defender Josko Gvardiol is the clear choice for this EVO. The Croatian is already a popular player in the game, and this evolution will take him to an EasySBC meta rating of 88.8 as a central defender.

Unsurprisingly, Gvardiol has rocketed in price since the release of this EVO. If you do have him in the club already, you can add to the Block PlayStyle+, and Jockey and Power Header PlayStyles he already possesses.

Jean-Clair Todibo (OVR 82)

As a Team of the Week player, Todibo comes in at around 22k coins, making him a more expensive option. However, for any Ligue 1 or France squad builders, he is the best option.

Upon completion, Todibo will boast 85 Sprint Speed, 94 Jumping, and 89 Strength. Throw in the extra PlayStyles and he will also be a master on the ball too.

Manuel Akanji (OVR 82)

The final player on our list was tough to pick. Ibrahima Konate, Cristian Romero, and Mario Hermoso are all good options. However, Manuel Akanji is our selection, and here’s why.

Akanji is already fast, and will end on 79 Pace. 90 Long Passing and 93 Short Passing will be incredible playing out from the back. While Akanji may not be physically imposing, he will be fantastic in a back three or for anyone who likes to play out from defence.

Another player to consider is Joel Matip, but only if you previously used him to complete the FC 24 Pacey Protector Evolution.
