You'll need the best FIFA 21 Ultimate Team kits. We've picked 11 of the funkiest and most popular kits in this year's game, with some absolute belters included. FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Kits.
- The Best Teams to Manage on FIFA 21 Career Mode. By Matt O'Connor-Simpson. FIFA 21 Official Career Mode Trailer / EA SPORTS FIFA. It's just a shame that FIFA 21 kits never.
- Chelsea, Real Madrid and Barcelona also make the FIFA 21 best teams list. There was little doubt that FC Bayern would top the FIFA 21 best teams list after a season in which they decimated all.
- Another one of the best Pro Clubs formations in FIFA 21 has to be the 5-2-1-2. The real benefits here come in the fact the bolstered defense and the use of wing backs. Having three center.
Fifa 21 Third Kits
FIFA 21 kits aren't just about looking good as you rack up the wins in Squad Battles, Division Rivals and the weekend league. They can also be a strong money-spinner in FIFA 21, bringing in coins when you unearth a hard-to-find or popular strip in a pack. Below we take a look at 11 of the sharpest combos in this year's game, mixing in a selection of cards that attract big coin on the transfer market. All prices are correct on PS4 as of Friday 18 December. Welcome to your FIFA 21 kits guide.
FC Bayern (away)
League: Bundesliga (GER 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 350 coins
It’s a two-tone grey look on the road this season for the Champions League winners, in which Robert Lewandowski is likely to hammer at least two dozen away goals. The badge, logo and sponsor are all in crisp orange-red, to offset the basic-yet-elegant base colour. Sehr, sehr gut.
Borussia Dortmund (home)
League: Bundesliga (GER 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 1,500 coins
Thunderbolts and lightning, very very… sorry Freddie, this one isn’t frightening at all, but it is a bit of a scorcher. Bayern’s big rivals break with their traditional, simple yellow-and-black combo for something significantly noisier, and in doing so replace long-standing sponsor Evonik with a new logo: German internet provider 1&1.
Barcelona (away)
League: La Liga (SPA 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 1,600 coins
Barca in black and gold? We’re into wolf-whistling territory here. The kit is high concept: it’s represented by the slogan “The colours are within”, with the legendary Spanish club stating that “Barca fans’ heart are Blaugrana, no matter what is on the outside”. It’s only the third time in Barca’s history that they’ve had a predominantly black kit, along with 2011-12 and 2013-14.
Inter Milan (home)
League: Serie A (ITA 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 1,300 coins
You really really really wanna zig-a-zig ah? Then Inter’s startling yet somehow sexy new look is the FIFA 21 kit for you. Like Dortmund it’s a colossal break from the norm in a bonkers year, with the Milan side’s traditional blue-and-black stripes swapped for a design inspired by Il Biscione - the city’s traditional symbol of an azure serpent.
Benevento (away)
League: Serie A (ITA 1)
Card type: Silver rare
Cost: 4,400 coins
Continuing the Italian theme, both Benevento kits are worth nabbing – either to wear in game, or as an investment. Along with Crotone, they’re one of two Serie A sides whose kits are silver rather than gold, meaning they’ll be hard to find all year. But while Crotone’s kits are fakies, Benevento’s are real, making them even more highly sought after.
Bielefeld (third)
League: Bundesliga (GER 1)
Card type: Silver rare
Cost: 1,200 coins
Another strip that’s both easy on the eye and beneficial to your long-term FIFA 21 coins bank balance. Just one Bundesliga side in FIFA 21 sports silver-carded kits: you’ve guessed it, it’s Bielefeld. If you see one of these on the market for under 1,000 coins, snap it up and immediately re-list with a 25% mark-up.
Southampton (home)
League: Premier League (ENG 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 200 coins
Breaking a tradition has been a theme here, and it’s especially welcome in the often risk-free Premier League. In fact, Saints have done something more complex than that: they’ve done away with more recent traditions (red-and-white stripes) to reinstall a much older one, with this sash stunner a throwback to their first ever kit, from 1885. It’s also one of the few on this list that you can nab at discard price.
New Zealand (home)
League: Men’s National (INT)
Card type: Silver rare
Cost: 4,500 coins
It’s all white on the night for the All Blacks. NZ’s home strip is up there with Nike’s best: beautifully simple, classy, and – as it’s an international kit – sponsor free. It’s another that’s a formidable investment. Both New Zealand strips went for close to the maximum of 5,000 coins throughout FIFA 20’s lifespan, and that precedent is repeated this year.
Al Ain FC (home)
League: United Emirates League (UAE 1)
Card type: Silver rare
Cost: 2,200 coins
More supremely clean Nike excellence here, though this time with a subtle yet elegant splash of purple. Al Ain FC are the only UAE club in FIFA 21 and as I write this there are only three cards representing this kit on the entire transfer market, so snap it up quick if you want to sport it in-game. The club’s all-purple away number is a real looker, too.
Angers SCO (home)
League: Ligue 1 Uber Eats (FRA 1)
Card type: Gold common
Cost: 200 coins
Italy’s most successful club may not be in FIFA 21 – for an explanation of why, check out our FIFA 21 Juventus guide – but Angers’ home colours are a strong replacement if you’re looking to build a squad of past and present Juve greats in Ultimate Team. It’s even made by Kappa, who manufactured a stack of classic Juventus strips in the eighties and nineties.
Chelsea (third)
League: Premier League (ENG 1)
Card type: Gold rare
Cost: 1,100 coins
What’s this? Chelsea turning themselves into a hybrid of Barca, Crystal Palace and Inverness Caledonian Thistle? Well… yes. Frank Lampard’s boys wearing red and blue shouldn’t work on paper but it just does, throwing back to a classic Nike trainer from the 1990s. As our FIFA 21 Icons guide will tell you, retro always works well in EA’s footy series.

We all love a game of FIFA Ultimate Team.
Some of us play casually, while others happily commit hours upon hours a week just to be in with a shot at qualifying for the Weekend League.
To really enjoy the game though, you'll need a good squad to play with. But creating that dream XI is harder than it sounds.
With over 17,000 footballers and 30 officially licensed leagues to pick from, there's so much choice and it can often be daunting to get on the transfer market and find the player you need.
Creating that perfect XI is certainly a challenge. Luckily, we've enlisted the help of a FIFA 21 pro to sort you out.
Have you ever wondered what the best XI in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team looks like? Well, wonder no more, because reigning ePremier League champion Hashtag Tom has your back.
Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, the gamer revealed the 11 players that, in his opinion, are the best in the game. Check out the team - which he uses in competitions - below:
That's quite an XI, isn't it? Hashtag Tom also explained his reasons for picking each player.
'I’ll start with the goalkeeper, one of the best in the world in real life. Manuel Neuer is in there. He does a great job, makes big saves and has a big frame as well,' he said.
'Pace is very important on FIFA 21. So at centre-back, I’ve got a special card from Ultimate Team. Road to the Final Lukas Klostermann - a Bundesliga centre-back at RB Leipzig.
'I use his pace because it’s key for the way the game works. Then I’ve gone a little different here with Kyle Walker at centre-back as well. Same reason as Klostermann - we love pace!
'At right-back, we’ve got Joao Cancelo because he links to Walker. He’s very good on the ball which is key for full-backs.
'Then I’ve got potentially the best left-back in the world right now - Alphonso Davies. It’s a very pacy backline with two fullbacks who are good on the ball.'
As you can probably tell, pace is very important in FIFA 21. But in midfield, Tom switches it up a bit.
'I play ICON Patrick Viera in centre-midfield. He covers every blade of grass, he’s an anchorman. I have a more attacking player next to him - Roberto Firmino’s Freeze card.
'Out wide, my two wingers are pace, pace, pace. Marcus Rashford on the left, he’s a very overpowered card on Ultimate Team. He’s very quick and has five-star skill moves.
'On the right side, we have Kylian Mbappe. There’s not much to say about him really. He’s one of the best in the world and he fits perfectly in FIFA - he’s got it all.'
That's a midfield you don't want to mess with. But it's upfront, with a deadly strike partnership, where the magic happens.
'We have the famous duo upfront. The two best cards in Ultimate Team.
Cristiano Ronaldo - he’s a machine on FIFA 21. He wins a lot of headers, he’s tall, he’s got great skill moves and a great weak foot. He’s very clutch. Whenever I need a goal it’s him.
'Then I have the other ICON of my team - Brazilian Ronaldo. R9. He’s one of the best cards in the game and he finishes virtually everything.'
Yep, that's one hell of a team. We certainly wouldn't want to be matched up against it on Ultimate Team.
So what tactics does Hashtag Tom use in competition? Well, he revealed those too.
'If you want good a formation this year, 4-4-2 is the one. A lot of professional players are using it. If you’re really struggling for defending some are using 5-3-2 as well,' he said.
'A good in-game tactic to use is press after possession loss.
'Pressure play can work very well in FIFA 21 - getting the ball high up can lead to the opponent making lots of mistakes so use that tactic if you like to play on the front foot.'
