As we await the upcoming release of FIFA 20, a number of 'leaks' have emerged appearing to show a handful of Ultimate Team cards.

FIFA Ultimate Team trader @FUTDonk has recently focused on several Barcelona and Real Madrid players, including the ratings and stats of Antoine Griezmann, Toni Kroos and Raphael Varane.

But perhaps the biggest talking point is the incredible downgrade of Los Blancos winger Gareth Bale, who has allegedly gone from a 88-rated card in FIFA 19 to a 85-rated in the latest edition.

He claims that Bale will take a -4 hit on his pace stat, along with shooting, dribbling and passing.

The Welshman has been linked with a move away after a disappointing campaign last season, but does he really deserve a -3 downgrade on his FIFA rating?

The 30-year-old scored 14 times in all competitions for Madrid in the 2018/19 season and continues to play a part in Zinedine Zidane's plans.

Stats actually suggest Bale deserves a tad more respect than many give him.

In terms of other FIFA 20 Ultimate Team 'leaks', FUT trader @FUTDonk has revealed the stats of Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos, who reportedly has a pace rating of just 45 on the new game.

Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann will apparently be given a 89-rated card, while the attributes of Los Blancos players Marcelo, Ferland Mendy, Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior have also emerged online.

Do you agree with the following cards?


With FIFA Ultimate Team making up an incredible 28% of EA Sports' revenue last year, it's no surprise that the gaming giant are again placing the mode at the forefront of FIFA 20.

EA have therefore introduced a series of new game modes that are wildly over the top but have been designed to make it as fun and social as possible.

FUT friendlies are now a thing so you can play offline or online in non-competitive games. You will still earn coins but your record, fatigue of players or contracts will not be affected.


'Couch Play' has also been brought in for those who like to play UT with and against their friends while they are in the room as opposed to online.

'Max Chemistry' sees chemistry completely thrown out of the window and all the focus on your ability, as well as a feature whereby you take three players from your opponent'ssquad and swap them into your XI. If you score with a player you nabbed from your opponent, you will get two points.

Then we have 'King of the Hill' - which promises to bring some absolute madness to proceedings.

Are you looking forward to FIFA 20 Ultimate Team? Thoughts on the ratings above?
