The latest of these votes saw Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino beat out Real Madrid’s James Rodriguez and Olympique Marseille’s Thauvin, as pretty much everyone had expected.

As a result, there’s a new SBC available in-game for a special version of the Brazilian star. As for James and Thauvin, they too have gotten weak foot boosts, but their cards will only be available in FUT Draft.

Firmino Summer Heat SBC in-game stats

This is already the ninth different version of Roberto Firmino in FUT 20, and the best one by far – beating out his previous highest-rated card (TOTW Moments) by four ratings.

Needless to say, this Summer Heat item is as well-rounded as it gets for a forward; he has enough pace to break the ranks, and the defending and physicality stats are good enough to play him as a roaming midfielder as well, especially considering the High/High work rates.

But perhaps the biggest upgrade is to the weak-foot, which has gone from four stars to five, on top of the already five-star skill moves, making this into a potentially elite-level card.

This is a good-looking card, there’s no doubt about it, but dropping 400,000+ coins into an SBC is a huge investment, especially for an untradeable card.

The good news is, however, that you don’t have to fire-sale your club or rush to buy FIFA Packs to raise up your coin total; this SBC has no expiration date, which means you can take your time, slowly build up your coins, and complete it once you’re ready.
