FC 26: quickly complete the FUTTIES Junior Kroupi objective!

The FUTTIES Junior Kroupi objective has just dropped in FC 26, with solid rewards at the end and a contribution to the famous Footage Lamp if you're still chasing it. Five tasks to complete, each with its own conditions. Nothing insurmountable, but if you tackle them one by one without thinking, you'll waste a ton of time on unnecessary matches.

The good news: with the right team composition, you can tick off several objectives at the same time, in the same matches. That's where strategy makes all the difference...

The team to build before starting the matches

Even before thinking about the matches, build a starting eleven that ticks as many boxes as possible at once. Here's what you need:

• Five French players in the starting eleven
• Two players aged 20 or under (born on November 11, 2005 or later)
• A striker with 92 Shooting or higher, ideally French and playing in the Premier League
• Two Premier League strikers up front (ideally French too, an Ekitike ticks every box)
• A formation with two strikers up front

Note

This kind of hybrid squad lets you make progress on several tasks at once instead of replaying matches for each objective separately. That's the key here: optimizing your recruitment so you don't have to multiply your sessions.

The five tasks to complete

• Bleu Crew: play 5 matches (Squad Battles at Semi-Pro difficulty or higher, or Live Events/Rivals/Champions) with at least 5 French players in the starting eleven.
• Kroup de Grace: score 3 goals finished from outside the box with a striker (preferred position only).
• Prodige: deliver 4 assists with a player born on November 11, 2005 or later.
• SHO Time!: score 8 goals with a player who has 92 Shooting or higher.
• STrike Pair: win 10 matches with at least 2 Premier League strikers (preferred position) in the starting eleven.

All these tasks can be completed in Squad Battles starting from Semi-Pro difficulty, but also in Live Events, Rivals, or Champions. Prioritize Live Events: matches there are shorter, so you can cycle through attempts faster. When farming objectives like this one, every minute saved per match counts.

The rewards at stake

Once the five tasks are completed, here's what you unlock:

• FUTTIES Junior Kroupi
• 1 Rare Gold player 86+ of your choice from 4
• 1 Rare Gold player 87+ of your choice from 3
• 1 Rare Gold player 88+ of your choice from 3
• 1 Rare Gold player 87+ of your choice from 5
• 1 Rare Gold player 88+ of your choice from 5
• 100 FUTTIES Tokens
• 10,000 coins
• 3,000 SP

On paper, the return is decent for the time invested, especially if your squad is already France/Premier League oriented. One simple piece of advice: build your lineup before starting the first match rather than adjusting it along the way. That way you avoid replaying matches for nothing just because a player doesn't tick the right box.
