There is something satisfying for FIFA 20 players that are able to play with legends of the game as well the current stars that are gracing the pitch today. In fact, there is nowhere else on the planet where you will be able to see Cristiano Ronaldo linking up with Pele in his prime and Lionel Messi teaming up with Diego Maradona.
These icon cards have added a new dimension to Ultimate Team over the past couple of years, with the list of icons increasing with every passing season. FIFA 20 saw an additional 15 added, which takes the tally of legends available on Ultimate Team to 89. But, with more expected to be added next season, which are the highest ranked cards that you can find for each position at present?
FIFA 20 Icon Forward: Pele
No icon in the game has a higher rating than the Brazilian legend. Pele remains the highest goalscorer in Brazilian history and is rightly regarded as one of the best players to have ever played the game. His success on the field included over 600 career goals. With Brazil he also went on to win three World Cups. Players on FIFA will be able to get Pele at ratings of 99, 98, 95 and 91. That 99-card is certainly one that all FIFA players desire.
FIFA 20 Icon Midfielder: Zinedine Zidane
There is so much quality in the middle of the park in terms of icons cards. There are a number of players with a 94 rating, including Ryan Giggs, Ruud Gullit and Lothar Matthaus. However, Zinedine Zidane comes out on top as his top card has a rating of 96. The former Real Madrid legend has a pass rating of 95, dribbling rating of 94 and shot rating of 91. It’s a deserved card for one of the very best players to have graced the pitch.
FIFA 20 Icon Defender: Paolo Maldini
Italian legend Paolo Maldini is clearly the best defensive card that players will be able to gte on the game, as his best card has a rating of 95. That includes a 99 rating for defending and 88 for pace. AC Milan won five Champions League medals with Maldini within their ranks, and the defender won 25 trophies across his spell with the Italian giants. There are very few defenders that have played the game that can claim to have played with so much grace.
FIFA 20 Icon Goalkeeper: Lev Yashin
There will be very few FIFA players that will know how talented Lev Yashin was as a professional goalkeeper. However, he is widely regarded as one of the best keepers to have played the game. Yashin remains the only goalkeeper to have won the Ballon d’Or and is believed to have kept 270 clean sheets throughout his career. He has a top-rated card of 95, and is a must for those looking to improve their defence.
