Spanish footballer Fernando Torres, the former Atletico de Madrid superstar striker who retired in 2019, is one of the three legendary players that can be acquired via a SBC. However, if you are planning to add Torres to your roster in FIFA 21, keep in mind that it’s going to cost you a lot of Coins.

As far as solutions go, you shouldn’t have too much trouble with the Born Legend and Rising Star parts. Because those two parts don’t require any Gold players, the cost should be anywhere between 3,000-4,000 for the former, and around 5,000-6,000 Coins for the latter. Or, you could just use any Bronze or Silver player items that are lying around in your collection.
