In FIFA 21 the TOTS is in full swing. At the same time, prices on the transfer market for many cards are dropping. So much so that some top players are now really cheap.
What’s going on? In FIFA 21, the Team of the Season is regularly bringing extremely strong new cards into the game. Every week, special cards with very high values are released and can therefore be quite expensive.
However, the transfer market also still features older cards from top players that are becoming cheaper. With some of these players, you can still improve your team – or at least use them in an SBC. That’s why we are looking at some top players who have become really affordable.
Virgil van Dijk (Gold)
Price: approx. 55,000 coins
Virgil van Dijk is one of the best center-backs in the world and also one of the highest-rated cards in FIFA 21. At its peak, his card was worth a full 540,000 coins, but it has been steadily decreasing over the past months. Currently, there are some cards that have surpassed the golden van Dijk – but the Liverpool defender is still a strong center-back.
Mohamed Salah (Gold)
Price: approx. 60,000 coins
Salah’s highest price was around 400,000 and now has only a fraction of that amount. This may appeal to many players who could use a dribbling winger on the right side. Salah’s gold card impresses with pace, finishing, and dribbling. Although he does not have 5-star skills, he can still maneuver into dangerous situations and finish successfully with his 4 stars combined with quick runs.
Joshua Kimmich (TOTGS)
Price: approx. 58,000 coins
With his performance in the Champions League, Kimmich earned a Team-of-the-Group-Stage card, which previously cost just over 250,000 coins. Today, it is available for about 60,000 coins, but it still impresses as a strong card in midfield. Kimmich can make an impact defensively and offensively.
Sadio Mané (Gold)
Price: approx. 55,000 coins
With Inform, Freeze, and TOTY nominations, Mané has created significant competition for himself through various special cards. However, the normal gold card still has the deadly combination of pace, finishing, and dribbling that defines Mané. It is now available for 55,000 coins – compared to the 500,000 coins he cost at the beginning of the game, it’s a real bargain.
Kevin de Bruyne (Gold)
Price: approx. 65,000
Kevin De Bruyne even has a 91 overall rating, primarily due to his fantastic playmaking skills in midfield. De Bruyne is the perfect playmaker and can also look for goal with significant power if needed. While the Belgian initially cost nearly 400,000 coins, he is now only around the 60,000 coin mark.
Robert Lewandowski (Inform)
Price: approx. 90,000
Robert Lewandowski is delivering one of the strongest Bundesliga performances in real life right now, which is why he has collected several special cards throughout FIFA 21. One of them – his first Inform card – has just dropped below 100,000. The goal-scoring striker is nearly a guarantee to score when he gets a touch in the box. For those looking to spend less, they should look for Lewandowski’s gold card.
Ilkay Gündogan (TOTS)
Price: approx. 77,500 coins
The impact of the current TOTS cards on the transfer market is evident as even TOTS cards come with prices that were hardly conceivable a few weeks ago. One example: Ilkay Gündogan, who received a really strong TOTS card. The ManCity midfielder has everything you could need in the center. The price: just 88,000 coins.
Michael Laudrup (91)
Price: approx. 81,000
Michael Laudrup represents another group of cards that actually had a rather stable price: icons. However, many legends are also dropping in price nowadays. Laudrup’s prime icon card has now reached 83,000 coins. The values of the CAM are quite usable, and like all other icons, he has the unique ability to link with all teammates.
Of course, other icons could fit your team or playstyle even better. The Icon Swaps 3 are perfect for that – there you can earn some really good icons.
