Top five icons rated 87 or lower in EA Sports FC 25.

There are a total of 24 icon cards with a rating of 87 or lowerwhere the lowest rated cards are 86. Don’t be too discouraged if these cards have a lower rating, e.g some of them are still very strong for the initial phase of FC 25 Ultimate Team. Here’s a quick summary of the top five icons you can get from this SBC and the reasons why, along with some honorable mentions afterward.

Symbol and rating	Description
Fernando Torres	With one of the best role options in EA FC 25 (Poacher++) and great overall stats, Torres is the ideal attacker for the 87 Icon Upgrade Pack. Additionally, his four-star skill moves, four-star weak foot, and Finesse Shot+ playstyle make him extremely useful in front of the net.
Claude Makelele	Makelele has always been one of EA FC’s best small defensive midfield players and is quick and excellent at interceptions. He won’t score often, but he will make your transition game and general defense easier.
Frank Rijkaard	Rijkaard is great for a variety of reasons: versatility in both midfield and center back, Intercept+ for the best interceptions, long AcceleRATE and even Power Shot, and a four-star weak foot if you want to play him more offensively.
Nemanja Vidic	As far as pure center backs go, Vidić is still the gold standard for a tall, strong, fast and skilled defender. Aside from the defensive and physical stats, it’s Slide Tackle+ and Aerial that make Vidić so difficult to get around or overcome.
Gianfranco Zola	Zola is the second best offensive card you can get in this SBC. He is extremely fast and agile, has good movement and a weak foot and can play both the CAM and ST positions. This makes him easy to integrate into teams, while his Finesse Shot+ can execute both long-range and close-range shots precisely.
