EA Sports has revealed a limited-time opportunity for EA FC 24 players to add an Erling Haaland card to their Ultimate Team squads. This promotional offer is both a welcome surprise for seasoned players and a massive boost for beginners. This article aims to provide an exhaustive guide on how you can claim this 87-rated Erling Haaland card for free.

The Context: EA FC 24 and Ultimate Team Mode

EA FC 24 is a football simulation video game where players can build their Ultimate Team squads. It is in this Ultimate Team mode that the Erling Haaland promotional card will become available. Notably, the Ultimate Team mode allows players to buy, sell, and trade players to build their dream team. However, this particular card will be untradeable.

The Card: What Makes It Special?

Erling Haaland is a Norwegian forward whose cards are highly sought after in EA FC 24’s Ultimate Team. As of this writing, there are two Erling Haaland cards available in the game: the base item and the RTTK promo item. Both cards are costly and highly effective. This promotional card is unique because it will have an 87-rating, making it a valuable yet cost-free addition to any team.

Eligibility Criteria: Founder’s Privilege

To be eligible for this card, players must have played EA FC 24 at least once before November 1. This is part of what EA Sports refers to as the Founder’s privilege. If you’ve played the game by that deadline, you’re automatically eligible for the card and other benefits associated with Founder’s status.

Redemption Method: How to Get Your Card

Once you’re eligible, don’t expect to see the card in your inventory right away. EA Sports has confirmed that the card will be available on December 10. You’ll likely find the card in the Ultimate Team store, from where you can redeem it. Do note that this card will be untradeable, but you can use it in any Squad Building Challenge (SBC) if it doesn’t fit in your starting squad.

What to Expect: Stats and Playstyle

The official stats for the 87-rated Erling Haaland card haven’t been released yet. Players are hopeful that this card will be as effective as the current Haaland cards available in the game. The effectiveness of this card will ultimately depend on its stats and how they align with your team’s playstyle.

Final Thoughts

This promotion by EA Sports provides a rare opportunity for players to secure a highly-rated player without any monetary or in-game resource expenditure. While the official stats are yet to be revealed, the card’s 87-rating itself indicates its potential value. Whether you’re a beginner or a veteran, this card could be a game-changer for your Ultimate Team squad.
