How to complete FIFA 21 ICON Player Pick SBC: Mid or Prime

EA Sports

FIFA 21 players are now able to unlock themselves a Mid or Prime ICON in exchange for a few choice squads through a new SBC.

ICONs are undoubtedly some of the best and most valued cards in FIFA’s Ultimate Team, and for good reason, as they bring some of the best players from the history of football like Pele, Maradona, Beckham, and plenty more to the game.

They have some of the best stats, which also means they’re some of the most expensive cards in FIFA to pick up. A single ICON card can literally break the bank, so simply going and buying one often isn’t a viable option.

Mid or Prime ICON SBC requirements

ICON cards’ exorbitant price is exactly what makes these upgrade SBCs so useful. If you’re willing to test your luck and roll the dice to possibly grab a top name, these Mid or Prime ICON SBCs can be extremely useful.

To knock this out you’ll have to exchange three squads in order to earn 1 of 3 Mid or Prime ICONs. The requirements for each are listed down below, along with the reward for each set:

Mid or Prime ICON SBC price

This SBC comes in at a total price of 560,000 to 645,000 FUT Coins depending on your platform.

  • PS4: 591,000
  • Origin: 645,000

It’s entirely up to you on whether to start it or not, but keep in mind it is much cheaper than buying an ICON outright on the market, even if you can’t pick exactly who you’ll get.

Below are the solutions to each of the squads listed above, as always to make things as painless as possible, none of the following will require any Loyalty or Position Change cards to complete.
