A new journey begins in EA FC 27 Ultimate Team, starting with a choice between four Starter League options to get your club up and running, and the permanent decision is one you need to be prepared for.
Like every new, FC 27 begins anew with a brand-new squad to build, and the Starter League selection provides your first squad of players, alongside four rewards obtainable through Objectives.
If you’re mulling over which Starter League to choose in FC 27, Insider Gaming has a breakdown of the best options.
All FC 27 Squad Foundation Starter League Rewards
There are four Starter League choices to select from in EA FC 27, each of which comes with four Foundations players to obtain through Objectives.
Unlike previous years, where all Foundations players were available, the initial batch is exclusive to the Starter League you selected, and cannot be obtained in any other way.
This means that 12 of the 16 Foundation Players are unobtainable when you make your choice, making it one of the biggest decisions you will have to make in the title.
The table below details all of the Foundation Players available through the Starter League selection, when specified Objectives are completed.
| Position | Premier League/WSL | LaLiga/Liga F | Bundesliga/Frauen Bundesliga | Ligue 1/Arkema Premiere |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CB | Victor Lindelof Aston Villa – Sweden |
Carl Starfelt Celta Vigo – Sweden |
Robin Koch Eintracht Frankfurt – Germany |
Ismaelo Ganiou RC Lens – France |
| LB | Keane Lewis-Potter Brentford – England | Gabriel Suazo Villarreal – Chile |
Daniel Svensson Borussia Dortmund – Sweden |
Nicolas Tagliafico Lyon – Argentina |
| CM | Lewis Miley Newcastle – England |
Moi Gomez Osasuna – Spain |
Ezechiel Banzuzi RB Leipzig – Netherlands |
Kevin Danois Auxerre – France |
| ST | Charalampos Kostoulas Brighton – Greece |
Hugo Duro Valencia – Spain |
Christian Kofane Bayer Leverkusen – Cameroon |
Lassine Sinayoko Paris FC – Mali |
Which Starter League Should You Pick in FC 27?
The choice of Starter League in FC 27 is largely a personal one, impacted by the long-term vision for your squad, but some options are better than others.
Of the four options, the strongest in terms of player is the LaLiga option, which boasts some of the best players available, alongside additional benefits of having two Spanish players, which are great for forming early Chemistry links.
Similarly, the Premier League is a strong choice, with two English players for Chemistry, and you can expect there to be a wide range of high-rated players that slot into a side.
Ligue 1 may also be of choice, with two French players and an Argentinean being good for Chemistry, but Sinayoko’s Mali nation makes it more difficult to find links.
Finally, the weakest choice in Bundesliga, with players who aren’t quite up to scratch with the other options, alongside having some more obscure nations to link together, aside from Robin Koch.
