While the excitement surrounding FIFA 23’s Team of the Season continues with the recently released Serie A TOTS, EA Sports has introduced the Phil Foden Showdown SBC. Here is everything related to the new FUT challenge.
Manchester City is enjoying a fantastic season, as they are just one win away from completing the treble by winning the UEFA Champions League. English winger Phil Foden was instrumental in Manchester City’s incredible season. So, EA Sports released a FIFA 23 Showdown edition card of Foden to honor the player and the club’s UCL performance.
The Showdown series is a unique set of FUT cards featuring players with boosted stats who will compete in a real-life matchup soon. Further, the winner of the match earns an additional +2 boost, while a draw results in both sides receiving an extra +1 boost. Man City’s Foden is the latest addition to the Showdown series.
About the FIFA 23 Phil Foden Showdown
Phil Foden has a decent base FUT card, an 85-rated Rare Gold one. But Electronic Arts significantly bumped up his stats when they included him in the Showdown series. His new exclusive card is 90-rated with the following new stats:
- Pace – 91
- Shooting – 88
- Passing – 90
- Dribbling – 95
- Defending – 64
- Physicality – 72
Phil Foden is a Left Winger (LW) on his new Showdown card. But his position can be changed to a Left Midfielder (LM), Central Attacking Midfielder (CAM), and Center Forward (CF) for better squad chemistry. Further, his new exclusive card has a 4-Star Weak Foot and 4-Star Skills, making it an excellent attacker to have on the FUT squad.
