Bukayo Saka has had his entire FIFA 20 Ultimate Team starting XI revealed and it’s fair to say that some of the game’s very best Icon cards would not be out of his price range if he was to sell it all. 

Just like many other real footballers who come up against people, their opponents tend to expose their teams by posting the players that took to the pitch against them online, and the same seems to have been the case for the Arsenal youngster.

With so many players now available in FUT, including many legends from the Gunners’ past like Patrick Vieira, Ian Wright, Denis Bergkamp and more, it’s something of a shock to see Saka hasn’t actually got any of the Arsenal greats in his team.

There are many Arsenal Icons from yesteryear included in FIFA 20, but does Saka have any? Let’s find out.

That said, one special card that did make the cut, obviously, was his very own 99 left midfield card, with maxed out stats. This card is a telltale sign that you’re up against a real footballer or a relative of one using their card, as there’s only one of them made available by EA SPORTS and assigned to each player per season.

With many notable additions included in Saka’s lineup, posted to Reddit by user Viggo10brondby, let’s run though the whole thing by each position.

The photo, as seen below, has been cut off but based on the ratings of players on the right side – and given they’re both Manchester City players – it’s easy to spot who we’re dealing with here.

Bukayo Saka’s FIFA 20 ultimate Team starting XI

  • GK: Alisson Becker (89)
  • CB: Paolo Maldini (92)
  • CB: Toby Alderweireld (87)
  • RB: Kyle Walker (84)
  • LB: Andy Robertson (85)
  • CDM: Wilfred Ndidi (86)
  • CDM: Ruud Gullit (90)
  • CAM: Kaka (91)
  • LM: Bukayo Saka (99)
  • RM: Raheem Sterling (88)
  • ST: Ronaldo (94)

A number of current Premier League stars do make the cut, however, including Tottenham Hotspurs defender Toby Alderweireld, which may raise some eyebrows in North London given their historic rivalry. The pace of Toby, too, might be a potential weak spot in an otherwise solid defensive unit.

Other honorable mentions go to Ruud Gullit, who has once again been a hugely popular card in FIFA 20, as well as Paolo Maldini, Kaka and of course R9.
