Adebayo Akinfenwa's New FIFA 20 Ultimate Card Has A Ridiculous 99 Physicality

Adebayo Akinfenwa's latest FIFA 20 Ultimate Team card comes with a ridiculous 99 physicality.

The cult hero helped Wycombe Wanderers secure promotion to the Championship through the play-offs after a memorable win in the final at Wembley Stadium.

He even ended up getting a WhatsApp message from Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to commemorate his efforts.

And EA, who have given Akinfenwa his fair share of special cards over the years, have marked his recent heroics by awarding him a 'Hero' card that bumps up his physicality from 81 to 99.

The 38-year old's strength rating is also 99 - an increase of two from his base card attribute statistic.

The man once told he was "too big to pay football" regained his spot as the strongest player on FIFA 20 after a brief spell on the top spot from Sebastien Haller.

In addition to that, he also became the first player to receive a 100-rated FIFA card after EA sent him a special gift for reaching 1 million followers on Instagram.

'The Beast' will forever remain synonymous with the FIFA franchise and a perfect measurement of his impact came in February when two Mexican fans travelled over 5,000 miles to see him play because of the game.

Frenzel and Francisco Gamez watched Wycombe in action, received tour of the ground and also got to meet the man of the moment.
