Squad Suggestions
Building a team in FC 24 Ultimate Team can be a challenge. It’s not necessary to have the best team if your budget doesn’t allow it, but it’s crucial to create a team that suits your style and needs.
When selecting players, it’s essential to carefully consider their attributes. Choosing a team solely based on ratings is a common mistake. We will guide you through the best players for each position, focusing on their key attributes.
It’s also important to ensure that the players you choose fit the formations you prefer. For example, having a skilled full-back won’t be beneficial if your chosen formation only includes three defenders.
Additionally, maximizing chemistry is crucial. While many players build squads based on a single league or nation, experienced players can create hybrid teams without sacrificing chemistry.
To cater to different player preferences and budgets, we recommend three squads with varying formations and budgets. However, please note that these formations are not necessarily the best for the LaLiga but are generic formations used across our squad guides.
Disclaimer Notes
This guide is based on our perception of the game, which may differ from yours. It should serve as a general orientation rather than a definitive solution, as it’s impossible to build a team that suits everyone’s preferences. Additionally, there are various factors that we are unaware of that can influence choices, such as budget, formation, custom tactics, instructions, play style, and individual player preferences.
It’s important to clarify certain criteria that we used in this guide:
- Only Gold Players: We have not considered silver and bronze players in this guide. Most of them are not capable of replacing the gold players in terms of quality.
- Only Regular Players: This guide does not take into account In-Form (IF) and special items, including Icons and Heroes. These items are often more expensive and may not provide good value for players with limited budgets.
- Only Normal Players: Upgraded or transferred items are not considered in this guide. We have only included players who started the season in the LaLiga with their original attributes.

The choice of players for this team was based on the analysis conducted in the position guides. Please refer to those guides to understand why we selected player A instead of player B
In goal, Courtois’ extra 12 cm make him a better choice than ter Stegen. Nevertheless, both are excellent goalkeepers, so you will always be well-served with either of them.
No other league offers as much quality in the center of defense as the Spanish one. Militão and Koundé provide the most assurances, but Rüdiger and Ronald Araújo can also be alternatives, especially if you need to place the Frenchman on the right side of the defense.
Excepting Koundé, Marcos Llorente is better than any other right-back. We think you should use him in this position, where he is more valuable, leaving the right side of the midfield for Raphinha.
Ferland Mendy is another player who has no competition in Spain. He’s the fastest and strongest left-back in this league.
We use this formation because it’s the one used in all our guides. However, by doing so, we miss the chance to include top-tier players who would normally have a guaranteed spot, such as Valverde, Frenkie de Jong, and Bellingham. None of them play in any other position than CM. Therefore, we entrust the defensive midfielder position to Camavinga and the attacking midfielder position to Fékir. It’s not that they are bad players, they are not, but in terms of quality, they are far from the level of someone like Valverde, for example
If you have a good budget, you cannot leave Vinícius Jr out of this team, and the same is valid for the two on the front: Griezmann and Lewandowski.

Both Courtois and ter Stegen are too expensive to be part of this team. However, that doesn’t mean you have to settle for less. Oblak is a top goalkeeper who will provide you with security in goal
In our opinion, Reinildo and José María Giménez are the best CBs under 15k coins playing in Spain. Molina and Acuña are two great options for the fullbacks. However if you want someone faster, you can pay a few more coins and use Cancelo instead of the Sevilla player.
In the midfield, we decided to blend Modric’s experience with the youthful vigor of Pedri and Camavinga. Corona and Carrasco provide solid options for the wings, with Ángel Correa taking up the most advanced position.
This squad was constructed using players priced under 15k coins at the time of release. Nevertheless, if you have some flexibility in your budget, adding Alaba and Marcos Llorente would notably enhance this lineup.

The selection of players for this team was based on the analysis conducted in the position guides. Please refer to those guides to understand why we chose player A over player B.
In goal, Mamardashvili is our top choice. Reinildo and Molina offer affordable options to maintain in the team, while Hermoso and Gayà are the latest additions to the defense.
In midfield, Koke and Lemar complement each other effectively. The former focuses more on defense, while the latter leans towards attack. Tsygankov on the right and Muniain on the left provide width to assist Ezequiel Ávila and Alexander Sørloth up front.
This squad was constructed using players whose prices were under 1k coins at the release date. If you still have some flexibility in your budget, there’s plenty of room for improvements. Aléx Remiro, José María Giménez, Balde, Darder, Iñaki Williams, and even João Félix would seamlessly integrate into this team.
By employing these players, you won’t require a manager on your team, as they would render the manager’s contract ineffective.
