EA FC 25 Raphael Varane End of an Era SBC: All tasks and cheapest solutions

EA Sports has released the EA FC 25 Raphael Varane End of an Era SBC in Ultimate Team to celebrate the illustrious career of the French defender. The centre-back won it all with the France national team and Real Madrid during the peak of his career, and recently retired due to an injury after his first game for Como in Serie A.

While the EA FC 25 Raphael Varane End of an Era SBC item is not as impressive as some of his highest-rated versions over the years, it is still exceptional for the current stage of the game.
