The new year 2021 is starting with a couple of highlights for FIFA 21 players. We got the new Headliners event, offering some great, dynamic cards and the brand new season 3 for FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. Let’s take a look at the new rewards you can earn throughout the season.

FIFA 21 Ultimate Team season 3 is here and with the new season, we got some new rewards. Okay, there are the typical badges, balls, or packs, but you want to know what players you can earn by wrapping up 100.000 experience, right?

FUT 21 season 3 rewards

Like in previews FUT 21 seasons, you unlock several badges, stadium themes or card packs. Season 3 is centered around the winter season, so most of the unlockable objects have something to do with snow, Yetis, snowmen and other icy stuff.

What’s really interesting though are the players you can unlock by reaching level 15 or level 30 at the end of the season. Each level is offering you the option to choose between three players. While level 15 is pretty easy, you need to complete almost every challenge, to earn the level 30 rewards.

FIFA 21 Ultimate Team season 3 rewards: Level 15

The three mid-season players have an overall rating of 83 – but that doesn’t mean, they are not good. No, honestly: Some of them are looking to be pretty damn overpowered:

  • CM: Alfred Duncan (Firenze) – 83 OVR
  • RM: Sada Thioub (Angers SCO) – 83 OVR
  • ST: Cédric Bakambu (Beijing Guoan) – 83 OVR

Look at Duncan for example. With the Shadow or Anchor chemistry style, this behemoth will take your Serie A defense to new heights. Thioub from French Ligue 1 is a great option for the left or right-wing, reaching 89 OVR while offering a whopping 92 strength.

Bakambu is the worst of the three but that does not mean, he is not good. With Hawk, this Congolese striker is reaching 98 pace while offering 91 shooting. Not bad for a free player, right?

FIFA 21 Ultimate Team season 3 rewards: Level 30

Max level 30 is, where things get really interesting. Here, you can choose between the following players from La Liga, Bundesliga, and Premier League:

  • RB: Emerson (Real Betis) – 85 OVR
  • ST: Alassane Plea (Borussia Mönchengladbach) – 86 OVR
  • LW: Christian Pulisic (Chelsea London) – 87 OVR

Okay, so with Emerson you get the best right-back from Spanish La Liga (91 OVR) and with Plea a strong, agile striker from Bundesliga. But the card of Pulisic is not looking bad either.

With the Marksman chemistry style, this US boy is playable on almost every position in your attack, reaching 92 OVR on the wings or as a central forward.
