Take a look at who we recommend below.

David Alaba (OVR 85)

Another defensive EVO, another one that David Alaba looks cracking in! Sure, the TOTY Center Back Evolution doesn’t look as good an outcome as previous ones released in FC 24 Ultimate Team, but if you missed out on them then this one is still decent. Stick a Shadow on him and after the EVO Alaba will have 90 PAC and 95 DEF! With all his base face stats below 90, it looks like you could definitely put him through another EVO in the future…

Emre Can (OVR 83)

We love Emre Can in FUT and this EVO shows off what a top base card he starts off with. Upgrade him and add a Shadow and EasySBC tells us he has a Meta Rating of 92.6! He is let down slightly by a poor pace split between Acceleration and Sprint Speed, but can still be a great powerhouse in midfield or defence.

William Saliba (OVR 83)

The man that most people will upgrade here is William Saliba, and it’s easy to see why! He was dominant at the start of FUT so any upgraded version of him will likely perform well in-game. The Frenchman doesn’t have the best Agility or Balance but is otherwise solid.
