EA FC 25: How to get 89-rated Jude Bellingham/Aitana Bonmati for free

Free gifts before Christmas

Come the middle of December, EA FC 25 players will be able to upgrade their Ultimate Team squads with a special item of either Jude Bellingham or Aitana Bonmati.

The two footballers are among the biggest superstars of men’s and women’s football, and their base items are still used heavily by the community as of writing. Of course, both Aitana and Jude have promo cards as well, but you’ll have to be really lucky to pack them in the first place (their prices in the market are very high).

Thankfully, EA Sports has a novel solution to all those problems, and the community is going to be the biggest benefactor.

EA FC 25 Ultimate Edition cover pack explained

EA Sports is going to introduce an Ultimate Edition cover pack for the players. This news has already been confirmed officially, and it’s no longer a speculation. The pack is going to be available December 17 onwards, and anyone who has played the game at least once before January 17 will be entitled to the pack. That’s pretty much all that you have to do to secure your copy of the free pack and get the free items as well.

This pack will have two main rewards – A loan base icon for 25 matches and a player pick. You can use this pick to select between two special cards – an 89-rated Bellingham/89-rated Bonmati. Based on the designs, the cards are expected to have an appearance close to the Champs Mode Mastery rewards, but they are actually different.

For the icons, there will be three choices, and they will be completely random. All of them will be available for 25 matches, so use them judiciously. For Bellingham and Bonmati, there are no such limitations. But you can keep only one of them, and the decision will be irreversible.

That said, there are still a few days left before it’s December 17. The idea is to pick the card that fits well with your squad. That said, the possible presence of Power Shot+ on Bellingham’s item could make him a popular choice, given the current meta of the game. That said, it’s better to wait for when the cards are available and make an educated choice after going through all the stats, playstyles, and available roles.
