Best players for the El Capitán Evolution
Here are the best players for this evolution slot:
1. Loïs Openda
Quick Step, Rapid and Low Driven Shot with the upgrades from this evo turn the Juventus striker into an elite striker that can almost break into the top 10 players for the ST Poacher role based on GG Ratings.
2. Asisat Oshoala
Her physicality sets her apart with her Enforcer PlayStyle helping in that department at holding the ball up, not only is she incredible as a striker, she breaks into the top 20 best players for the CAM Shadow Striker role in FC 26 based on GG Ratings.
3. Joshua Zirkzee
The Manchester United striker has a good profile to get the evo combo of The Undead Lion with El Capitan, his base Technical and First Touch help him a lot playing as a Shadow striker that offers you good aerial presence with his 6'4 height running late into the box.
4. Alexis Sánchez
Putting the senior Sevilla attacker through The Undead Lion evo before this one gives him a nice mix of shooting, passing and physicality boost and makes this combo a great one for making a goalscoring CAM.
5. João Pedro
If you want the Chelsea star to benefit from both evos you have to put him through El Capitan first before The Undead Lion to make sure he's eligible for both, doing so gives you a 6'2 player with a Lean body type and the Rapid PlayStyle to destroy defenders when he gets the ball.
Is the El Capitán Evolution worth it?
YES - The El Capitán evolution is worth unlocking in EA FC 26.
While it's fairly expensive, the upgrades to key stats as well as the addition of the Finesse Shot PlayStyles+ makes it well worth the investment.
