Day 2 of the FIFA 21 Christmas promo event Freeze gave us an extremely good right back from the Italian Serie A. Cristian Ansaldi proves age is just a number and we have the cheapest solution for his Freeze SBC.

Good right backs are rare in Serie A. Apart from Rulebreakers Juan Cuadrado (costing over 200,000 coins) and the UEL RTTF card of Bruno Peres (just under 110,000 coins), options are limited.
Freeze Cristian Ansaldi is better than both and at that price is absolutely overpowered. Shadow Chemistry bumps the Argentine to 91 OVR on his position, which is on the level of the strongest FUT Icons.

He almost reaches the ratings of the legend Javier Zanetti, but costs only a fraction. Moreover, like Zanetti, Ansaldi is versatile and can also be slotted at CDM. Within the Freeze event itself Ansaldi provides a great link to Lautaro Martinez' card, which is just another small bonus.
The Cristian Ansaldi Freeze SBC is well worth its cost.
The Cheapest Solution
One team does it for this SBC:
- Min. one Serie A player, min. 1 TOTW, min. 85 OVR, min. 65 chemistry
Team 1
We go the Italian Serie A route and combine it with a Bundesliga trio including two goalkeepers: Yann Sommer from Borussia Mönchengladbach and Roman Bürki from Borussia Dortmund. Chemistry requirements are low enough for Youssef El Arabi or any other striker with 84+ OVR to fill the TOTW role.
