With Iñaki Williams bringing elite pace and strength to LaLiga squads and the 86+ Player Pick providing a steady flow of high-rated cards, these SBCs work well together for squad improvement. Completing the Player Pick SBC multiple times can help gather the necessary fodder to bring down the real cost of Williams. Players with duplicate high-rated untradeables will find this a perfect cycle to maximise value.
