FIFA 23 Squad Foundations Santa Cruz objective

EA Sports have released a brand new set of Squad Foundations objectives in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team, with Roque Santa Cruz receiving a special card. The Paraguayan striker is a true veteran of the sport and is currently playing for Libertad in the CONMEBOL Libertadores, earning his very first special card of the season at the age of 41.

Squad Foundations objectives are an excellent addition to FIFA 23 Ultimate Team as it highlights footballers from fringe leagues. Although these leagues are entertaining in their own right, they're often overlooked in the world of FUT. By providing boosted versions of talented players such as Santa Cruz, the developers encourage gamers to include them in their lineups.
