The card is not the issue. Alessandro Florenzi’s Hall of FUT Unleashed item is an 87 with 94 acceleration, 99 agility, 
Anticipate+ and six positions, and four in five voters like it. The issue is a score target of 380,000, which works out at more than 430,000 coins of fodder for a card you can never sell, and 79% of voters say no to that.

Nobody will hand in 458 cards. In practice this is an SBC you fill with the high-rated untradeables already in your club, and the real question is what else that fodder could have become. The price moved by about 14,000 coins inside five minutes on Saturday, so check it again before you start.

The good
He covers a whole flank or a whole midfield. 94 acceleration with Explosive AcceleRATE and Quick Step gets him to the ball first, Anticipate+ and Jockey make him hard to dribble past, and 96 stamina with 99 aggression means he is still doing it late in the game.
The six positions are the real selling point: right back, left back, either wide midfield spot, CM and CDM. Going forward he has 97 shot power, 96 long shots and a 4★ weak foot, which is a lot for a fullback.
His PlayStyles:
Anticipate+- Jockey
- Quick Step
- Bruiser
- Whipped Pass
- Low Driven Shot
The bad
73 strength and 173 cm is small for a defender, and Bruiser only partly covers it. Against tall, strong strikers he can lose the physical duel, and he will not win much at the back post.
For a card pitched as a midfield option, there is no passing PlayStyle beyond Whipped Pass, and 3★ skills keep him simple on the ball. And he is untradeable: the fodder is gone for good.
What the creators say
Morsey tested him and told viewers to keep their fodder. He rated the defending highly, with Anticipate+, Jockey, Quick Step and Bruiser all doing their job, and liked that the card fits so many positions. On the ball he found him less sharp than the stats promise and easy to push off it, missed a passing PlayStyle in midfield, and said he would rather play the 85-rated Hall of FUT Valencia at right back.
On the price he was blunt: “he’s worth nowhere near that in my opinion”. His own ceiling for the card was about half the asking score. He tried Anchor at right back and Engine at CDM, and ended up preferring him as a CDM.
What the community thinks
| Vote | Result |
|---|---|
| SBC price | 21% positive (1,346 votes) |
| Card rating | 79% positive (319 votes) |
| Tier placement | 87% put him in the top tier (291 votes) |
| Most picked chemistry style | Shadow (47%), then Anchor (29%) and Architect (8%) |
That split is the whole story: a top-tier card at a price almost four in five reject. For scale, the 86-rated RTTK Calafiori SBC, which can still be upgraded, costs about 159,000 coins and ends on Sunday 15 November. Our review of him is here.
Our verdict: doubtful at this price
Skip the Florenzi SBC unless your club is full of untradeable 86s to 88s that you have no other plan for. If that is you, he is a very good and very flexible defender who will stay in your squad for a long time. If you would have to buy the fodder, more than 430,000 coins gets you better players from the market that you can sell again.
The SBC runs until 4 December. Fodder prices and upgrade SBCs will change in three weeks, so the sensible move is to save packs toward him and decide in the last days.
