An interesting addition to Ultimate Team this year is the ability to exchange up to ten of your fringe players for a chance at receiving someone of a higher calibre.
You could feasibly sacrifice a host of the bronze players you started out with and end up receiving an Eden Hazard in exchange. You could also end up with Joe Bloggs, but that’s beside the point.
Selling your lesser players for coin makes more sense if you’re saving up for a specific target on the transfer market, but otherwise the exchange system is a fun and potentially effective method of getting hold of a marquee player.
