In EA FC 24 you can use the new evolutions to transform normal cards into special versions with improved stats and additional playstyles. For a few days now there have been two additional categories for the new feature in Ultimate Team.
What new evolutions are there? Fast Wing gives an RF improved offensive stats and two new playstyles. To get access to Evolutions you have to spend 50k coins or 1,000 FC Points.
However, the external defense edge evolution is free. In this you can equip a silver or bronze player with better stats, a higher defensive work rate, and a new playstyle.
Once activated, you must then complete various tasks with your approved evolution player to receive the upgrades. We’ll show you which cards are best suited for the new evolutions.
Two new evolutions: These are the best options
Below we will introduce you to 3 options for each of the two new evolution upgrades. We look at overall strength, individual stats and linkability. We got support for this from the evolution calculator on FUTBIN.
With this new feature you can identify suitable candidates for all evolutions, view the required tasks or look at the cards with the upgrades included. In our article about this useful service, we will show you what else the evolution calculator offers you and how you can best use it.
Before we recommend the 3 players for the evolution upgrades, we will tell you about the requirements, tasks and upgrades.

Upgrades after completing Level 2:
Based on the requirements and potential upgrades, we have the following recommendations for you.
The 3 best options for Fast Wing evolution
Maria Sanchez from 81 to 85 (Houston Dash/NWSL):
After the upgrades, María Sánchez is the epitome of a fast wing. Your evolution card is traveling really fast at 93 speed. She also has very good dribbling, which is rated at 85.
The card already has five playstyles before Evolution, which expands to 7 after Evolution. Only the linkability is not optimal. Nevertheless, with María Sánchez’s evolution card you have a strong alternative that you can also put on the bench as a super sub.
Malcolm from 81 to 85 (Al Hilal/Saudi Pro League):
After his upgrade, the Brazilian can impress with his strong speed and dribbling. The biggest argument in favor of Malcolm is his perfect link to Neymar (same club, same nation).
In general, there are a lot of strong Brazilians in EA FC 24. If you want to build at least one strong Brazilian wing in the future, you can use Malcolm for the “Fast Wing” evolution.
Lucas Vázquez from 81 to 85 (Real Madrid/LaLiga EA Sports):
You will get a real all-rounder with quick feet if you choose Lucas Vázquez. He can be used on the right wing in both defense and offense.
Since the Spaniard plays for Real Madrid, he is also an excellent link. With 4 stars in skills and 4 stars in precision, with his weak foot he can also be used in central midfield or on the left flank.
Our recommendations for the outside defense edge evolution continue below.

For the evolution of the external defense edge, we recommend the following player.
The 3 best options for the “Outside Defense Edge” evolution
Timothy Weah from 74 to 83 (Juventus Turin/Serie A):
Weah’s upgrades look very interesting. After the complete evolution, he only has values above 70. His speed is very good, his physique and his dribbling are solid.
In addition to his good linkability as a Juventus player, he has another positive aspect. He can be used as both a right and left defender. He can also play the RM and RF positions. This makes it particularly valuable for team building.
Joe Scally from 74 to 83 (Borussia Mönchengladbach/Bundesliga):
Another American on our list. In addition to Jeremy Frimpong, there are hardly any good alternatives in the RV position in the Bundesliga.
Joe Scally looks very solid after his upgrade. You should be on the safe side with him, especially defensively. Anyone who has earned Giovanni Reyna’s RTTK card will even receive a nation link for their Bundesliga team with Scally.
DeAndre Yedlin from 70 to 79 (Inter Miami/MLS):
The third American of our recommendations. Yedlin’s pace and physicality look tempting after the upgrade. If you still have the “Welcome to the Evolution Upgrades” open, you can even upgrade the 79 card to an overall rating of 80.
Yedlin is very popular on the transfer market and currently costs 10k. This is mainly due to his connection to teammate Lionel Messi, who is one of the best at the new OP dribbling in EA FC 24.
