Player Review

So is it worth grafting all the way to 87-rated Reinier? Let's find out.

For starters, there is absolutely no point in starting these objectives if your intention isn't to get to the 85-rated card as a bare minimum as the rewards EA are offering in return for completing the challenges are very substandard.

But if you only intend on going as far as the 85-rated version of Reinier - the third of four cards - then you won't get a bad card in return.

In fact, with 89 pace, 87 dribbling and 84 shooting, you'll actually get a striker that is capable of playing in most sides, and one that will score you goals on a regular basis.

But if you're willing to graft for the 87-rated version, you won't regret it.

91 pace, 89 dribbling and 87 shooting make Reinier one of the standout strikers in the Bundesliga. The fact he is Brazilian helps massively too.

With 4*/4* and a M/H work rate thrown in the mix, you are getting a striker that would warrant a fee of around 200-300k on the market.

The fact you can unlock him for free is quite absurd. Don't let this one go a miss.
