If you’re just returning to EA Sports FC 25 for FUT Birthday, you may be surprised to see that the weekly objective challenge recently underwent some changes. Instead of completing a set of four pre-chosen objectives, you now have the choice of five objectives from six available, like in Tammy Abraham’s Flashback challenge.

While this may seem like a great change that will make earning FUT Birthday Alfonso Espino easier, the tasks you must perform have remained relatively unchanged. On the plus side, you can earn one extra set of rewards from doing five objectives instead of four, and could potentially earn all six rewards if you put in the extra time.
This objective is available until the daily reset time on March 21, 2025.
What Are The FUT Birthday: Alfonso Espino Objectives?
The FUT Birthday Alfonso Espino objective challenge is extremely straightforward, focusing entirely on his performances in La Liga as the primary theme for his objectives.

If you haven’t already added a few of these superstars to your team, head over to your Club tab and edit your starting Squad.
How To Complete The FUT Birthday: Alfonso Espino Challenge Fast
Essentially, this challenge will mostly be completed in team building, as you have so many top-tier options available from La Liga that it will be easy to complete the performance-based tasks if you prioritize using a midfield and attack comprised fully of La Liga players.
Here are some of the best La Liga players you can add to your squad:
- Vini Jr. (Real Madrid)
- Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)
- Lamine Yamal (FC Barcelona)
- Antoine Griezmann (Ateltico Madrid)
- Aurelien Tchouameni (Real Madrid)
- Eden Hazard (Hero)

The list of viable options for La Liga goes on and on, so choose whoever you have available in your club and keep a few milestones in mind to know when you’re done.
Once you have Inigo Martinez in your starting 11, you need to win three of your ten games in Squad Battles (or three of seven in Rivals) while scoring eight times and picking up four assists, all with La Liga players.
What Rewards Do You Get From The FUT Birthday: Alfonso Espino Challenge?
Group Rewards
Once you’ve finished your five tasks, you’ll earn an 88-rated Alfonso Espino card, which might be disappointing if you’ve kept up with the EA FC 25 grind thus far.
While Rapid and Intercept are still great PlayStyles to have, they don’t move the needle if you already have a strong leftback.
However, if you’re new or just haven’t played much Ultimate Team this year, then Alfonso Espino will serve you well thanks to his 92 Pace and 90 Physical.
Espino is not a bad player at all, but his only problem is the vast array of competition in his position, especially with Theo Hernandez largely considered the best option to use.
Challenge Rewards
These rewards have become the new standard and provide a good chance of getting decent fodder cards, at minimum.
