It could all be an extraordinary moment for Lionel Messi, who has led Argentina to another FIFA World Cup final. The Argentine fell one step short the last time losing to Germany in the finals; however, gamers will have already received another special card of his even before the final kicks off.
The official stats of the card have yet to be discovered and will only be displayed when the FUT World Cup Team of the Tournament promo launches in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team. However, FUT Sheriff has predicted the special card to have a 96 overall, likely making him the highest-rated item in the game.
The card is also predicted to have excellent shooting, passing, and dribbling stats. Considering how well the 35-year-old has performed in the current tournament, it will be no less justified.
