Reasoning for Investment: There are only two reasons why a card may have value – they are either usable in-game, or they are usable for SBCs. Typically one of these price factors far outweighs the other, but in rare instances a card might check both boxes.

Not only was Future FUT Stars Esupiñán one of the cheapest 86s, he was also one of the best La Liga LBs at the time. Those two things, coupled with the fact that he was going out of packs with the rest of FFS Team 2, made for a great investment.
