EA FC 25 guide: Best Clubs starter Builds for CB in every role

There are three FC IQ Player Roles for Center Backs (CB) in FC 25 - Stopper, Defender, and Ball-Playing Defender. Attributes that are primary to these roles should be prioritized the most in Level 1 Clubs Builds, so try to assign the most Skill Points to Defending and Physical for Stopper and Defender. As for Ball-Playing Defender, distribute some Skill Points in Passing and Dribbling as well in addition to the two previously mentioned attributes.

Note that you will get to pick only two Playstyles for a Level 1 Build, so keep the preferred Player Role in mind while selecting them.
