In Ultimate Team (FUT) for EA Sports FC 26, players typically want the best players for each position, although chemistry is also something that should be kept in the back of the mind. Any player rated 90 or over will likely be a great addition to a team, and if players are in the process of building their squad and accruing more coins, a 90-rated player might be their new star.
While some of these superstars have ludicrous price tags that will likely only be matched by spending real-life money, there are thankfully a few affordable options. As such, the following are the cheapest 90+ players in FC 26’s Ultimate Team.
Over the course of the season, more 90+ rated players will be released, and some of these may also end up on the cheaper side. All prices are also subject to change.

Bobby Moore was the captain of England when they won the World Cup in 1966, and the image of him holding the trophy aloft is among the most iconic in football history. Incredibly, players can pick up his 90-rated ICON card for under 200k coins most of the time.
This is likely due to the fact that he stands at only 5’10”, which is a margin smaller than many modern center backs. He also only has 70 pace, which puts off some players who prize defenders on their ability to deal with counterattacks. This is made up, however, by a 92 rating for defense.
Birgit Prinz – ICON

Out of the cheapest 90+ players in FC 26, Birgit Prinz is the highest rated at 92, with most of the other cheap options all being 90-rated. She is also the cheapest ICON available, despite being a great all-around player, with good physicality and stature at 5’10”.
While 83 pace isn’t anything to write home about, the two-time World Cup winner certainly isn’t slow, and will be able to bag many goals with 92 shooting. Hailing from Germany, Prinz also has plenty of fellow elite Germans to link up with, as chemistry should not be neglected in Ultimate Team.

Elite defender Virgil van Dijk isn’t that expensive for a 90-rated player, as the fastest center backs are often preferred to deal with the speed of competitive gameplay in FC 26.
Nevertheless, with excellent physicality and a defensive stat of 90, Virgil van Dijk is a great addition to any back line, and will also be a threat in the box for corners. He also slots into Premier League teams, with these being among the most popular.
Harry Kane – TOTW

Harry Kane’s rating was downgraded in EA Sports FC 26, likely due to his age. However, it didn’t take long for Kane to once again prove that he deserves a 90 rating with an incredible start to the season, breaking many goal-scoring records.
He thus earned himself a Team of the Week card, and yet it remains somewhat affordable, especially for a 90+ rated special card. This price is likely due to Kane’s pace only being 70, but with crosses and headers being more potent in FC 26, this is an underrated card.
Prices also vary between consoles and PC.
Jude Bellingham

Given that he’s one of the most exciting young talents, it’s surprising that Jude Bellingham is so cheap at 90-rated. Looking at his stats, he has no weaknesses across the board, even boasting good defensive skills for a CAM.
While he doesn’t have 5-star skills like some more popular players, he does have 4 stars for both skills and his weak foot. His Playstyle+ for Relentless also means he will put in an incredible shift each game.
Erling Haaland

Erling Haaland is one of the top strikers in the world, with pundits often saying he appears to have been designed in a lab for goal-scoring. However, despite being 90-rated and among the tallest players in FC 26 at 6’5″ with a shooting skill of 91, Haaland can be picked up for around 100k in Ultimate Team, making him a relative bargain.
One reason for this FUT card being more affordable could be that Haaland already has a TOTW edition card, which raises his rating to 91.
Rodri

It’s hard to say why, but Rodri is by far the cheapest 90+ player in Ultimate Team for FC 26. One reason could be his 65 pace, with the fastest players usually being desired, but for a midfield anchor, this isn’t too important.
At around 32k coins, players can realistically afford Rodri by playing games and achieving objectives without having to spend real money. They can then use him to win more games, eventually paying off his price.
