EA FC 26 Marcus Tavernier Thunderstruck SBC: All tasks and cheapest solutions

EA Sports has released the EA FC 26 Marcus Tavernier Thunderstruck SBC in Ultimate Team, providing the English winger with an 86-rated item as part of the ongoing promo. The Bournemouth forward has a low base overall rating in the latest title and is not too effective in the current meta, but this SBC item could fix his flaws and make him a top-tier winger on the virtual pitch.

The Thunderstruck promo has offered gamers a mixed bag of SBC players to add to their squads, with expensive items like Fernando Torres and Jules Kounde being accompanied by more affordable options like Esther and Grace Geyoro. The EA FC 26 Marcus Tavernier Thunderstruck SBC is an example of the latter.
