EA FC 26: Jack Hendry Squad Foundations SBC – Requirements & Solutions A budget-friendly Squad Foundations SBC gives Scottish defender Jack Hendry an 83-rated upgrade

EA FC 26 continues its Squad Foundations program with a brand-new SBC for Jack Hendry, handing the Scottish defender an 83-rated special card.

Foundations cards like Hendry make squad chemistry much easier, giving budget squads more flexibility.
