Fermín López might have just become the most underrated gem in FC 25 Ultimate Team. After receiving a Fantasy FC upgrade, his new stats and playstyles make him one of the most complete attacking midfielders in the game. But what’s truly shocking is that this insane card is currently going for just 35,000 coins.
If you’re looking for a top-tier CAM without draining your coin balance, López is the card you should be targeting immediately.
Fermin Lopez upgraded to near perfection
The FC Barcelona midfielder received one of the biggest upgrades seen in this promo. Thanks to Barcelona’s recent 4-1 win against Girona, Fermín hit all of the Fantasy FC objectives – no bookings, multiple team wins, team goals, and a personal goal – triggering a full boost across key areas.
Here’s what changed in his stats:
- +2 pace
- +2 shooting
- +2 passing
- +7 dribbling
- +3 defending
- +2 physical
- 5-star skill moves and 5-star weak foot
That’s not just a nice upgrade. That’s game-changing.
He also gained some of the best playstyles in the game:
- Technical+
- Pinged Pass+
- Intercept
- Press Proven
- First Touch
- Tiki Taka
- Incisive Pass
- Relentless
With this setup, he plays like a 99-rated CAM when using a Hawk chemistry style. His dribbling is flawless, his passing is near perfect, and his finishing iselite. He feels like an icon-level player with none of the price tag.
An insane card for just 35k
What makes Fermín López even more impressive is how affordable he is. At the time of writing, he’s available for just 35K coins on the market. That’s less than most basic SBCs and far cheaper than other players with similar stats or playstyles.
Here’s a breakdown of what you get for that price:
- 99 CAM rating with Hawk
- 99 short passing
- 99 long passing
- 98 vision
- 95 finishing
- 92 long shots
- 90 pace
- Elite dribbling stats
Even without a chemistry style, he’s already an elite card. Add Hawk, and he turns into one of the best CAMs in the game, capable of dominating in Weekend League, Rivals or FUT Champs.
EA haven’t confirmed if more upgrades are coming, but Barcelona are still in the running for both the La Liga title and Copa del Rey (They could qualify for the final tomorrow night), meaning there’s a chance López could get another boost before the end of the season.
How to get the most out of Fermin Lopez
To get the best from López, play him in a central CAM role or a left CM in a 4-3-2-1. His high-level playstyles make him perfect for advanced build-up play and aggressive pressing. If you want to max out his attacking output, here are two great chemistry styles:
- Hawk – boosts pace, shooting, and physical. Turns him into a 99-rated CAM.
- Engine – improves balance and passing, ideal for tighter gameplay and more finesse.
His best roles include:
- Central CAM
- Creative CM
- Wide Playmaker if needed
His stamina is strong enough to last the full 90 minutes, and his passing range and vision mean he’s the perfect link between midfield and attack.

Why is Fermín López so cheap?
It’s honestly hard to say. Fermín López might be getting overlooked due to the number of other Fantasy FC upgrades or simply because his name isn’t as big as others like Rodrygo or Davies. But when you look at what he offers on the pitch, there’s no denying this is one of the most complete and underpriced cards in FC 25.
If you’re running a La Liga squad or just want to add a world-class CAM without spending 200K+, this card should be at the top of your list.
