For many, FIFA is a way to show your footballing knowledge and talent away from the pitch, but what about those who have played the sport at the highest level?
EA Sports will award any professional football player with their own personal FIFA Ultimate Team card if they ask. These ridiculous cards will upgrade the player to 99-overall and each one is a one-of-a-kind.
The pro players are also given their choice of a few Icons as well as a bunch of coins and FIFA points - leading to incredible squads.

Jordan Pickford's FIFA 19 team

The England goalkeeper has opted for an incredibly offensive team, playing a 4-2-4 which features Prime Icons Ronaldo, Pele and George Best as well as inform Neymar and Ones To Watch Cristiano Ronaldo.
His personal card will be extremely difficult to beat with features 98 diving, 99 reflexes and 94 handling plus his distribution is exceptional with 99 kicking.
