Although, this was not the only Showdown card added to FIFA 21’s FUT, as EA also added a 90-rated version of Dan-Axel Zagadou from Borussia Dortmund. These two Bundesliga superstars are set to face off against each other in real-life on Saturday, May 22nd, with the winner set to receive a +2 overall in-game upgrade.

Both of these cards will be obtainable through FIFA 21 Ultimate Team’s squad building challenges (SBC) until Friday, May 21st (just before the two stars face-off). So, to help you take advantage of this opportunity, and acquire the young Leverkusen man, we have come up with some of the cheapest solutions for the FIFA 21 Demarai Gray Showdown.
