FUT Perisic: Best way to get FUT Birthday Ivan Perisic card in FIFA 19

As a part of FUT Birthday celebrations, EA Sports FIFA have released a special card of Ivan Perisic. The Croatian has been given a rating of 90 with his position changed to CAM.

This new card is a brilliant one for those who have a Serie A side or a Croatian team. He can be used as an impact sub as well as his rating are that good.

Is it worth doing?

Absolutely. Perisic has a pace of 90 and shooting of 88! That itself should be enough to get him into your squad but if that's not enough, his passing of 87 and dribbling of 89 is impressive too!

Moreover, he has a 5-star weak foot – meaning you can shoot with the ball at either foot and the result will be the same. His skill rating is 4-stars and that is just an added bonus.

Perisic's FUT Birthday card isn't available in the market and can only be acquired by completing the Squad Builder Challenge. You have to complete 3 challenges in order to get the special card and here are the requirements and solutions:

#1 – I Nerazzurri

Requirements:

Min. Inter Milan Player: 1

Min. TOTW Players: 1

Min. Team Rating: 85

Min. Team Chemistry: 80

Number of Players in the Squad: 11

Solution:

It's not going to be cheap to solve the first SBC itself! The above squad is one of the cheapest you can make in FIFA 19 and it will cost you 187k on PS4, 180k on XBOX and around 230k on PC.

The aforementioned prices are all based on buying all the players required from the market and their average selling price at the time of writing. If you have any of these players, well and good. The cost of the SBC will come down and you are in line to complete the challenge faster.

#2 – 84-rated squad

Requirements:

Min. TOTW Players: 1

Min. Team Rating: 84

Min. Team Chemistry: 80

Number of Players in the Squad: 11

Solution:

For this challenge, I have gone with LaLiga players as they are available for a relatively cheap amount. The above squad was build for just around 74k as I had most of them in the club already.

However, if you need to sign all the players mentioned above, it will cost you 122k on PS4, 136k on XBOX and 152k on PC. All the players are easily available in the market and should be easily gettable.

You can swipe them for a lower price as well and get the cost down. Moreover, if you are a regular player, you should be having a lot of 83 rated cards in your club, just try and get the chemistry to around 60 and then start buying players to fill in the gaps.

#3 – 86-rated squad

Requirements:

Min. Team Rating: 86

Min. Team Chemistry: 60

Number of Players in the Squad: 11

Solution:

I threw in random Premier League players and then added a couple of strikers with good ratings for this one and it worked. None of the players are in my current squad and thus I had no issue in letting go of them.

For this challenge, I did not have to spend anything and 8 of these players were actually untradeable. However, you want to get all these players, it will cost you around 160k on all consoles.

Overall SBC cost: 450-480k (all consoles)

It's not the cheapest SBC of the year nor is it even close to the highest. But if you are looking for a Serie A midfielder to make the difference, Perisic is the man. Proper two-footed player and has a stamina of 94 – will last the whole game easily.
