Sam Beukema 78

Sam Beukema is a Gold CB with an overall of 78 in EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team, playing for SSC Napoli in Serie A Enilive for Holland. His standout trait is aerial defending, with heading accuracy at 82 and a DEF face stat of 80. His base rating is unchanged from FC 26.

He suits a centre-back slot in a back three or back four, especially in a high-defensive-line-free or deep build where his positioning matters more than pace. Long Ball Pass helps him start attacks from the back, and Aerial Fortress makes him dependable against crosses and set pieces. His acceleration of 33 and sprint speed of 48 are his weak points, so pair him with a quicker partner or avoid playing him in a high line.

Best for players who want a reliable, physical central defender for defensive setups rather than a fast ball-playing option.
