How to complete FUT Future Stars Academy Cucurella challenge

Much like the Reinier challenge, FIFA players will need to complete 12 separate objectives in order to receive the final version of Marc Cucurella.

Six of the 12 objectives specify that players must complete those in Squad Battles on mininum Professional difficulty.

Here are the 12 objectives for this challenge:

Players who complete all 12 objectives will receive the 87 OVR Cucurella card and 200 XP.

As far this challenge goes, it will be a grind, but considering that this a Squad Battles-themed one, it actually shouldn’t be horrible to get through. Just keep in mind that you might want to use a LaLiga-themed squad with Spanish forwards, as that type of team will not only help you complete the first objective, but will also link well with Cucurella.

Additionally, it’s worth noting that it might actually be worth just completing the A Future Star, A Promising Star, and Climbing the Ranks objectives if you’re not interested in grinding for the 87 OVR card. While the 86 OVR doesn’t have the same stats (-3 Pace and -3 Shooting) as the highest-rated version, it’ll still be very serviceable.

This challenge will expire on March 14.
