The first batch of 'Best of' cards will be leaving packs on Friday, with FUT Birthday Adama Traore a favourite in the mix.
The 89-Rated ST version of the Spaniard is one of the most overpowered cards in the game, but there is no need to worry about packing him anymore...
EA have delivered yet another set of FUTTIES Favourite Progression Objectives cards this evening, and it's Adama who is under the spotlight.

You can unlock his FUT Birthday card, as well as two FUTTIES versions of the Wolves favourite, and here is how.
Dates
These Adama objectives arrived in FIFA 21 at 6pm BST on Wednesday, July 28th.

Objectives Tips
Again, this will take you a fair chunk of time if you're looking to complete all 11 objectives, but that is due to the vast number of objectives, rather than their difficulty.
Premier League & Spanish players are the only neccessity in your squad, and that is only for the first three objectives before you unlock FUT Birthday Adama. If you already have a Premier League side then you're in luck, if not we'd recommend going out and picking up one of the following players:
- Rodrigo (Leeds United)
- Ferran Torres (Manchester City)
- Adama Traore (Wolves)
All three of the above are available for 10k or less, and all three play in attacking postitions that can kill two birds with one stone due to their league and nation combination.
As always, we'll recommed taking the Squad Battles route as opposed to the Division Rivals route in order to complete the set in as little time as possible. Although with a month to work your way through, there isn't too much of a time restriction.
Worth the Grind?
There is no doubt that Premier League players will be rubbing their hands together at the prospect of a 95-rated Adama, especially given the fact he is free.
But is it worth working through all 11 objectives in order to get to him? Let's take a look.
The top-rated, 95-rated version of Adama is up there with the very best RW's that the Premier League has to offer, coming in with a total of 2425 in-game stats.
Adama's top ranked card also comes with 90+ ratings in five of the six base stats as well as a 4* weak foot and a 5* set of skills.
Both the 92-rated FUTTIES Adama and the FUT Birthday Adama are very good in their own right, with the latter the only of the three to feature in a central role, though there is no doubt you should be looking to go all the way on this one.
Worth the grind? There's no doubt about it. It's a yes from us.
