FIFA 21: How to complete POTM Bruno Fernandes SBC (January 2021) – Requirements and solutions

Bruno went back-to-back.

In December 2020, EA Sports named Manchester United star midfielder Bruno Fernandes the Premier League’s Player of the Month (POTM) for November. Fast forward one month later, and Fernandes took home the honor in FIFA 21 for the second consecutive month. On January 15, a new 92 OVR Player of the Month player item of Bruno Fernandes, which is a +1 OVR bump up from last month, went live. Just like last month, this item can be obtained by completing a special Squad Building Challenge.
