CLINICAL FINISHER: FUT Birthday Huntelaar has incredible shooting stats in Ultimate Team

Credit: FUTBIN

An insane 39 pace upgrade on Huntelaar's base silver card was necessary in order to make this card usable, however, the awkward pace split of 82 acceleration and 91 sprint speed is far from ideal.

FUT Birthday Huntelaar will not disappoint when it comes to taking his chances, with 98 finishing, 91 shot power and 97 composure.

The striker's 87 stamina and 90 strength are most definitely at the power curve in FIFA 21.

Apply an Engine chemistry style in order to boost Huntelaar's acceleration and agility, and the prolific scorer will most definitely worth a try in the Weekend League!

Dutch Connection

Future Stars Steven Bergwijn is the perfect meta card to partner up top with FUT Birthday Jan Huntelaar.
