The EA FC26 Ultimate Scream promo continues delivering must-have cards, and Manchester United legend Park Ji-Sung could be the next big release. According to reliable leaker FIFATradingRomania, the South Korean midfielder is set to receive his first boosted card of the game cycle via an Ultimate Scream Hero SBC. With the Halloween event running through November 7, 2025, this 88-rated monster could transform Premier League squads — but is the rumored 300,000-coin price tag justified?
Park Ji-Sung’s base Hero card has been underwhelming this cycle despite representing one of football’s most versatile midfielders. His original positions — CAM (Central Attacking Midfielder) and LM (Left Midfielder) — don’t match his real-life role as a box-to-box workhorse for Manchester United.
The leaked Ultimate Scream version addresses this critical flaw. If EA grants him a CM (Central Midfielder) alternative position, Park suddenly becomes one of the most complete midfielders in the game. His rumored 87 Pace and 87 Dribbling combined with 80 Defending create the perfect box-to-box profile that dominated the Premier League during his prime years.
The former Manchester United midfielder is renowned for his versatility and his tenacious approach to the sport, making him an excellent option for squads needing defensive contribution alongside offensive support.
For more insights on building effective Premier League squads, understanding positional flexibility is crucial for maximizing chemistry and performance.
What makes Ultimate Scream cards special in EA FC 26 isn’t just the initial stats — it’s the scheduled Full Moon upgrades that create temporary god-tier players:
November 5 (Beaver Moon): One face stat temporarily becomes 99-rated for seven days, plus Role+ across all positions
December 4 (Cold Moon): Another face stat hits 99-rated for seven days, plus Role++ across all positions
These position role upgrades are permanent, meaning Park Ji-Sung could eventually function as an elite CM, CDM, CAM, or even RM with maxed-out role effectiveness. This flexibility justifies holding the card long-term rather than flipping for quick profit.

Beyond stats, Park Ji-Sung offers Hero chemistry perks that make squad building significantly easier. Heroes provide:
With Premier League dominance in the current meta, Park slots seamlessly into hybrid squads while maintaining full chemistry for Haaland, Salah, Son Heung-min, and other elite attackers. This chemistry flexibility often separates good squads from elite squads in Division Rivals and FUT Champions.
Based on the leaked stats and potential CM alternative position, a price around 300,000 coins is reasonable for a player of this caliber. Let’s break down whether this represents good value:
Comparable Players:
Park’s untradeable nature means you’re committing resources without the safety net of reselling. However, his unique stat combination — high pace with solid defending — fills a gap that tradeable alternatives can’t match at this price point.
Value Verdict: If you run a Premier League squad and need a versatile midfielder who can defend and attack, 300K is fair value. If you prefer meta pace merchants or plan to liquidate your squad later, wait for tradeable alternatives.
The Ultimate Scream promo runs in two phases:
Park Ji-Sung could be the first Hero item to receive a promo version via an SBC, making this particularly exciting for collectors and Manchester United fans. Most high-tier SBCs drop on Fridays at 6 PM GMT, so expect Park between November 1-4, 2025.

If you complete the Park Ji-Sung SBC, maximize his effectiveness with these pairings:
Discover advanced squad building techniques to create dominant formations around versatile midfielders like Park.
Budget Option: Gold Rare Eriksen (~15K) offers similar passing but lacks pace and defending
Mid-Tier: IF Amadou Onana (~120K) provides physicality and defending but lower technical stats
Premium: Hero Claude Makélélé (~450K) offers defensive excellence but minimal attacking contribution
Each serves different purposes, but Park’s balanced profile uniquely combines attack, defense, and chemistry flexibility.
