How to unlock the Master builder achievement in FIFA 18 - Definitive Guide
I found that the easiest way to get this achievement is to do the 'Upgrades' squad building challenges. In these you have to put a full 11 player squad in with at least 40 chemistry, and once you submit it will count for 1 challenge done. The best thing about these challenges is that they are repeatable, and also with them only requiring 40 chemistry it makes it possible to complete the challenge with players out of position, making it easier. The only downside is that they seem to be around for a limited time only, as on 01/10/17 they show 18 days remaining, so get them done whilst you can!
There is one challenge for bronze, one for silver and one for gold players, all of which are repeatable. If like me you have kept all your unwanted players in your club, you can put them to use here, if not, keep them from now onwards! To help you along if you don't have many players, there are currently (on 01/10/17) bronze and silver player packs in the store which each contain 12 players. I bought the entire allocation of 5 bronze player packs which helped me to get about 5 challenges done. The bronze player packs cost 1,250 coins whilst the silver ones cost 5,000 coins, making it cheaper to use the bronze packs. Once I used my player packs I used the normal 400 coin bronze packs as you can normally get 3-5 players in them.
To help you make the most of the players you've got, I have a couple of tips. I used the squad builder to make the squad (rather than starting from scratch which takes longer), and once it has built a squad for you I recommend filling in any blank spaces with any players either in the work area at the bottom of the screen or finding them in your club. Then see what your chemistry level is and if it is high, try and replace some players with others that play in a position you have an abundance of. For example, I found I had a lot of bronze goalkeepers (as you only need 1 per time), so after I had built the squad I would replace the some outfield players (such as CAM or CDM, which I didn't have many of) with goalkeepers until I was on or just above 40 chemistry. This means you have these players for the next challenge, knowing you will be able to fill the position and not use an out of position player (which doesn't give you a lot of chemistry). Also, if you find you are just short on chemistry after it has built the squad, try swapping some players positions in the squad to gain the extra couple of chemistry points you need. Sometimes you can find moving a player out of position will actually increase chemistry because it creates an orange or green link, which gives you more chemistry.
If I have missed any information, or anything needs elaborating, please feel free to comment!
*EDIT* Thanks to WoodyMcWoodface who has brought it to my attention that using the FUT web app may not get you the achievement, as he has done 20+ challenges and not unlocked it. To be safe, I recommend using the console to make sure any you complete will contribute towards the achievement.

Hey,
I tried your solution.
But it did not work for me. Spend like 6000 coins on those packs and made 7 teams with it, already get 13 challenges.
Made another silver one just to be sure.
Should be number challenge 21.
Ain't popping o_O

Unobtainable due to Server Closure
After initially completing your first 3 Squad Building Challenges in the “Let’s Get Started” Group, you will unlock all the other available groups to attempt to complete for rewards. By far the most simple therefore also regarded as the easiest is the “Upgrades” section, where the challenges are repeatable though on a timer before resetting. The “Bronze Upgrade” challenge is ideally what you’ll want to complete numerous times to reach the required 20 for the trophy. All that is required in this challenge is you field a full bronze team which has a chemistry of at least 40. So long as each player is in their correct position, or even if they aren’t but you have a handful of links between players of a mutual club/country/league, then reaching 40 chemistry is pretty easy to achieve.
Buying numerous bronze packs to obtain players is recommended, as you are guaranteed at least 3 players for 400 coins whereas if you buy via the transfer market the minimum bidding price is 150 coins for any card. Due to having to spend coins, it’s therefore also recommended that you leave this trophy until after you have won the Single Player Draft, as you’ll need 15,000 coins to enter it. For every “Bronze Upgrade” challenge completed, you’ll be rewarded a silver pack containing 2 silver players. This means that after a handful of successes in bronze, you can use your freebie silver players to also try and complete a Silver Upgrade challenge which also only requires 40 chemistry. The trophy will pop shortly after you submit your 20th completed team.

Go to the Team Selection Challenge and select the "Improvements" section
Next, we select “Exchange: Bronze”, if there are bronze players, then we place them, if not, then we look for a player in the market with the position we need. Do not buy a player for more than 200 coins, and then 1 challenge will cost you a maximum of 2200
For this test, we receive silver players that can be used in "Exchange: Silver"
We repeat these tests 20 times
The maximum cost is 44,000 coins.

I made more than 20, but since I mostly compiled it at work via my phone and an application on the EA website, they didn’t give me a trophy. If you use the application, then I advise everyone to buy it and publish it through the console.

I followed the first advice.
The upgrade happened after 12-13 upgrades, since the training task for selecting a team (for which you get 2 upgrades) still counts.
Since I was playing closer to getting platinum, there were a lot of bronze players.
I spent only 10 thousand on purchasing bronze packs.

we buy bronze packs for 400, there are 3-5 bronze players. It turns out clearly cheaper than if you buy it on the market even at 150. The rest can be applied to players, or also sold on the market. in the bronze exchange, you can even place players in positions other than those of the player; the requirements for the exchange are weak.
