EA Sports FC 25: Ballon d'Or Challenge SBCs, Explained

A fresh set of SBCs has taken center stage in EA Sports FC 25 and by completing the new Ballon d'Or Challenge, players can earn multiple rewards. To finish these challenges, you will need to submit a squad of 11 players.

Since sacrificing 11 players might be a big deal for some, here's a guide to help you tackle these Ballon d'Or Challenges. If you have enough coins and prefer to skip the grind, simply copy the suggested team and purchase each player directly from the Transfer Market.

How To Complete Ballon d'Or Challenge SBCs

As a tribute to football's most prestigious awards, the makers have introduced special golden cards featuring some of this year's top-nominated footballers. Currently, there are two Ballon d'Or Challenge SBCs available in EA Sports FC 25, but they are set to expire soon.

Ballon d'Or Challenge 1

The first challenge requires you to submit a squad of 11 players, with all of them having a minimum Silver Player Quality. In addition to this, here are all the Objective Group Challenge Requirements:

Challenge Requirements	Total players
Players from the same country/region	Maximum 4 in your starting 11
Total number of leagues	Minimum 3 in your starting 11
Gold Players	Minimum 1 in your Starting 11
Rare Players	Minimum 2 in your Starting 11
Total Chemistry	Minimum 14 in your Starting 11

These challenges might seem a bit intimidating at first, but they’re quite easy to solve. The simplest trick you can use is to focus on one league to secure the 14 chemistry, which can be the trickiest part.

Fill your attacking and midfield positions with players from the same league, then use any two Rare silver or gold players from two different leagues in your defense to meet the rest of the requirements.

You can opt for the Premier League, just like we did, mainly because we find it to be quite diverse when it comes to player options.

Avoid using more than three players from the same country or region.

If you have enough UT coins but are running low on SBC fodder, simply copy the team shown in the image above and purchase each player from the transfer market. While this approach may be a bit heavy on your UT coin balance, it’s definitely the easiest way to complete the Ballon d'Or Challenge 1 SBC.

Player Name	Position	Country	League	Transfer Price
Brennan Johnson	ST	Wales	Premier League	650 UT coins
Daichi Kamada	CAM	Japan	Premier League	650 UT coins
Jesper Lindstrom	CAM	Denmark	Premier League	650 UT coins
Alex Iwobi	LM	Nigeria	Premier League	450 UT coins
Ismaila Sarr	RM	Senegal	Premier League	450 UT coins
James Garner	CM	England	Premier League	650 UT coins
Rayan Ail-Nouri	LB	Algeria	Premier League	650 UT coins
Abdukodir Khusanov	CB	Uzbekistan	League 1 Uber Ets	650 UT coins
Ana Tejada	CB	Spain	NWSL	450 UT coins
Mitchell Weiser	RB	France	Bundesliga	500 UT coins
Gabriel Arias	GK	Chile	Sudamericana	3,700 UT coins

Ballon d'Or Challenge 2

Similar to the first challenge, this SBC also requires you to submit a squad of 11 players, all of whom must have a minimum Silver Player Quality. In addition to that, here are all the Challenge Requirements you need to meet to complete this SBC:

Challenge Requirements	Total players
Players from the same league	Maximum 4 in your starting 11
Players from 1 club	Minimum 2 in your starting 11
Gold Players	Minimum 8 in your Starting 11
Total Chemistry	Minimum 22 in your Starting 11

This challenge is definitely tougher than the first Ballon d'Or challenge due to two key reasons: you need Eight gold players and a total of 22 chemistry. Another crucial factor is managing the number of players from each league, as the challenge requires you to use fewer than four players from any single league.

To Achieve the 22 chemistry, try using three leagues with players from similar countries. Your best option is to focus on the top leagues, where you can find English, Spanish, German, and French players. In our SBC solution, we used French players from four different leagues to boost our chemistry, then added more players from their respective leagues.

Player Name	Position	Country	League	Transfer Price
Hugo Duro Perales	ST	Spain	La Liga EA Sports	500 UT coins
Timo Werner	ST	Germany	Premier League	650 UT coins
Thomas Lamar	CM	France	La Liga EA Sports	650 UT coins
Andre Almedia	CM	Portugal	La Liga EA Sports	450 UT coins
Alex Suarez	RB	Spain	La Liga EA Sports	600 UT coins
Jean-Clair Todibo	CB	France	Premier League	650 UT coins
David Raum	LB	Germany	Bundesliga	650 UT coins
Franck Honorat	RM	France	Bundesliga	450 UT coins
Mathys Tel	LM	France	Bundesliga	650 UT coins
Mohamed Simakan	CB	France	ROSHN Saudi League	650 UT coins
Dominik Kotarski	GK	Croatia	Hellas Liga	450 UT coins
