But with countless promos, lightning rounds, and SBCs being released each week, FUT players have to be smart about where they spend their hard-earned FIFA 25 Coins. So, is this Nuno Tavares SBC worth the investment?
Let's break down the stats, tasks, cheapest solutions, and how he performs on the pitch. If you're looking for top-tier FC 25 Players to bolster your backline, this guide will help you decide if Tavares deserves a spot in your squad.
Why the Nuno Tavares TOTS Honourable Mentions Card Matters
Nuno Tavares, currently on loan at Nottingham Forest from Arsenal, has had a noteworthy season, and EA Sports has rewarded his efforts with this boosted card. What makes it special is not just the stat increase, but the versatility he brings on the field.
Here's a look at the key stats for the card:
    95 Pace – One of the fastest left-backs in the game. He can recover quickly and push forward with ease.
    85 Defending – Strong enough to challenge even elite wingers.
    80 Physicality – Combines strength and stamina for full-match reliability.
Add to that his High/Medium work rates and a 4-star Weak Foot, and Tavares becomes a well-rounded choice. Whether you're defending deep or using overlapping full-backs, this card adapts beautifully.
This makes him one of the most attractive SBC-based FC 25 Players available during the TOTS promo.
