Is Gyokeres Worth 350K Coins?

Strengths: The card delivers blistering pace (91), exceptional physicality (92), and 5-star weak foot—making him a reliable finisher. His Rapid+ PlayStyle enables devastating counter-attacks.

Weaknesses: At 350,000 coins with similar stats to his base card, this represents a premium price. With major promos approaching, conserving SBC fodder might be wiser.

Verdict: Complete only if you’re running a Premier League-focused squad or desperately need a physical striker. Otherwise, explore cheaper alternatives through Evolutions.
