Squad Foundations Ebony Salmon was dropped today (October 5, 2024) as a craftable SBC in EA FC 25, making it an exciting option for those looking for a solid striker on a budget. Costing about just 18K coins, this Squad Foundations challenge requires just two squads to submit and is easy to complete.

The card looks impressive, featuring 90 Pace and 85 Shooting, which will surely add a burst of speed and clinical finishing to your team. Additionally, Salmon comes with the Quickstep PlayStyle+, a major bonus at this price point. Her versatility is further enhanced with the Technical playstyle and two other normal playstyles, offering plenty of tactical flexibility.

However, while this card has many strengths, it does have one notable drawback: Salmon only possesses 3-star skills. So, you’ll have an efficient and fast striker leading the attack but won’t be able to execute intricate skill moves to humiliate your opponent’s defenders.

Nonetheless, at 18K coins, the Squad Foundations Ebony Salmon SBC is an excellent value for those looking to boost their team’s offense in EA FC 25.

All tasks for Squad Foundations Ebony Salmon in EA FC 25

You need to complete two simple squad-building challenges to unlock Squad Foundations Ebony Salmon in EA FC 25. Here are the requirements:

England

Number of players from England: Min 1
Squad Rating: Min 82
Number of players in squad: 11

84-Rated Squad

Squad Rating: Min 84
Number of players in squad: 11

One of the standout features of the Ebony Salmon SBC is that you don't need to include any Team of the Week (TOTW) cards in either of the two squads. This is a major advantage, as TOTW cards tend to be more expensive and would have significantly increased the overall cost of completing the challenge.

By omitting this requirement, EA has made the Ebony Salmon SBC much more affordable and accessible to a wider range of players, particularly those working with limited coins.
