FIFA 22 Ultimate Team has added a new Record Breakers card to the player pool.
Crystal Palace striker Odsonne Edouard has been available to unlock via an SBC after scoring the fastest goal as a debutant in the Premier League.
Take a look at the new card below and how it could benefit your Ultimate Team squad.
Record Breakers
Record Breakers have made a return in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team after their success last season, although their releases have been limited thus far!
The first Record Breaker card was released via SBC on Tuesday, 19 October, with Inaki Williams made available to unlock.
Since then, it has been quiet on the Record Breakers front, with only the inbound Odsonne Edouard adding to the roster.
Is this the start of another wave of cards, or will it be another couple of months before the next release? Who knows.
Odsonne Edouard (OVR 85)
Start Date: Tuesday, 4 January
Expiry Date: Tuesday, 11 January

Worth it?
Over 100k for an 85-rated card may seem a silly amount to put in, but we don't think it's as unreasonable as it may first appear.
First off, Edouard actually has the base stats of an 86-rated card, which can shoot up to a 92-rated one with the right chemistry.
He's French, so can link well to many other leagues - always an added bonus.
But what sets him apart is the type of player he is with Premier League links.
He has top stats in everything you could hope for, pacey, decent at shooting, can pass in the final third, great with the ball at his feet, and physical enough to battle with defenders.
If you're looking for a similar type of Premier League striker your only options are the Rulebreakers Antonio (which was an objectives card that has now expired), or the Versus Jesus card, which will cost you over 500k.
If you were in need of a powerful and mobile striker for your Premier League side, then Edouard could be it.
Stats Leak
There have been loads of leaks over the past few weeks, with squads for Winter Wildcards and Headliners revealed well in advance of release.
The incredibly unpopular Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang SBC was already revealed online early, and now another SBC has been leaked too.
Odsonne Edouard's new card has surfaced online thanks to @FutSheriff on Twitter, and his stats look very useful indeed!
