EA Sports has just delivered another top-tier Squad Building Challenge in FC 26, and this time, it's all about Mariona Caldentey. The newly released Mariona FUTTIES SBC has turned heads across the Ultimate Team community with FIFA 26 Coins her stunning 97-rated version. If you're looking to enhance your squad with elite-level FC 26 players, this Spanish winger could be your next game-changer.

This guide will walk you through why Mariona is worth considering, how to complete her SBC efficiently, and whether your FIFA 26 Coins are better spent elsewhere.

Why Mariona FUTTIES Is a Must-Look

The FUTTIES promo continues to redefine the meta in FC 26, and Mariona's card is one of the highlights. This latest version outclasses her previous Team of the Season card in nearly every area. The boost in pace, sharper shooting, and significantly improved physicality make her a nightmare for defenders, and a dream for creative attackers.

She's the ideal winger for fast breaks, wide play, and cut-ins, especially for players who rely on fluid passing and technical dribbling. And with her Spanish nationality and club links, she fits perfectly into La Liga squads or hybrid teams.

Is 350K a Fair Price

It depends on your squad and priorities. On one hand, Mariona offers:

    A 97-rated card with elite stats in pace, dribbling, and shooting

    Excellent fit for Spanish-themed or La Liga hybrid teams

    Versatility to play on either wing or as a CAM

    Meta-level effectiveness even against top-tier defenders

On the other hand, 350K in FIFA 26 Coins could buy:

    Multiple tradeable FUTTIES Team 1 or Team 2 FC 26 players

    Prime Icons during a market crash

    Future SBCs, including those for central or defensive positions

Ultimately, if you already have stacked attackers, this may feel like a luxury purchase. But for players building a competitive squad from cheap FC 26 Coins wide positions, Mariona is among the best currently available.
