The Antonio Nusa Destined for Glory SBC is live in EA FC 27 Ultimate Team, offering an explosive young winger as part of the game’s opening promo. It runs on a single Item Score requirement, so the cheapest path is a stack of high-rated fodder rather than a full squad build.
Quick answer: Meet the 75,000 Item Score requirement with 24 85-rated Gold cards and six 86-rated Gold cards, which costs roughly 67,800 Coins if you buy everything from the market.
Antonio Nusa SBC requirement and cost
This challenge asks for one thing only, a combined Item Score of 75,000 across the players you submit. There are no chemistry, rating, or club-count conditions layered on top, which makes it one of the simpler builds to plan. You have seven days to complete it before it leaves the Squad Building Challenges menu.
Building the card from scratch runs around 67,800 Coins on the transfer market. The number moves with market conditions, so shopping during quiet hours keeps the total down.
Cheapest solution for the 75,000 Item Score
The most cost-effective mix leans on cheap high-rated Gold cards rather than tradeable specials. This combination clears the score target with the lowest outlay.
| Card rating | Quantity | Approx. cost each |
|---|---|---|
| 85-rated Gold | 24 | 1,800 Coins |
| 86-rated Gold | 6 | 4,100 Coins |
If you have untradeable Gold fodder sitting in your club, drop those in first. They count toward the score the same way, and every club card you use removes another purchase from your Coin bill.
How to submit the challenge
Once the score bar hits 75,000, the submit button unlocks. Confirm the challenge and Antonio Nusa drops straight into your club as an untradeable item, which is how you know the SBC completed successfully.
Antonio Nusa card attributes
Nusa is built around explosive, close-control dribbling. His 88 Pace is front-loaded with 91 Acceleration, and paired with 94 Agility, 90 Balance, and 5 Star Skill Moves, he slips past defenders in tight spaces. His PlayStyle set of Rapid, Quick Step, Technical, and Inventive reinforces that wide-attacking profile.
The finishing side is where he shows limits. His 91 Shot Power can trouble a keeper, but 80 Finishing, 76 Long Shots, and a 3 Star Weak Foot keep him short of a clinical striker. Passing sits at a workable 77 thanks to 83 Vision, while 76 Composure and 77 Reactions can produce heavy touches under a hard press.
His standout trait is positional flexibility. He carries All Roles++ at LW, LM, CAM, and CM, so you can shift formations mid-match without chemistry or tactical penalties. That range makes him effective as an agile creator or a super sub.
Destined for Glory upgrade path
As a live card, Nusa keeps improving through the season based on his real-world domestic league output. Midfielders and attackers earn upgrades through combined goals and assists across four milestones.
| Combined goals & assists | Upgrade |
|---|---|
| 3 | +1 Shooting & Passing |
| 6 | +1 Regular PlayStyle |
| 10 | +1 Overall |
| 20 | +1 Overall |
Clear all of those milestones and the card climbs by a full +2 Overall, alongside the boosts to Shooting, Passing, and an added PlayStyle. Because tracking began before the promo went live and continues all year, there is a genuine chance the card grows well beyond its launch rating.
At roughly 67,800 Coins, the SBC is an easy pickup for anyone who wants a quick, agile wide option that can be crafted almost entirely from spare club cards. The finishing stats and 3 Star Weak Foot hold him back as a lone striker, but his pace, agility, and role flexibility make him a strong impact substitute with room to grow as the upgrades roll in.
