FIFA 20 latest as two Liverpool legends confirmed as new Ultimate Team Icons

With FIFA 20 now just over a month away from release, two brand new FUT Icons have been confirmed - and they are two genuine Liverpool legends.

Ahead of the release of the new game, EA SPORTS have teased the release of new Icons, after confirming updates and improvements to a number of game modes, including Ultimate Team, Kick Off, Pro Clubs and even a new game mode, called VOLTA Football.

Former Real Madrid and Juventus star Zinedine Zidane has already been confirmed as a brand new FUT Icon for FIFA 20, joining the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Ian Wright, Didier Drogba, Ronald Koeman and Carlos Alberto as new Icons for FUT20.

Now, two more Icons have been revealed.

FUT Icons - Liverpool Legends

Here are the two Liverpool legends that have been announced as Icons for FUT in FIFA 20.

That's right, both Ian Rush and John Barnes are both being added to FIFA 20 Ultimate Team as playable Icons.

Their ratings have yet to be confirmed, but we predict they will be among the best icons available.

Rush is bound to have incredible pace and finishing ability, whilst Barnes' dribbling and acceleration could make him a really dangerous player in the game.

What do you think their ratings will be?

EA SPORTS have already revealed a number of changes and improvements to the Ultimate Team game mode in FIFA 20, including:

  • FUT Friendlies:  a new hub to play FUT with friends locally or online, as well as head-to-head online in traditional 11v11 gameplay, with or without House Rules. There are also four new brand ways to play: Mystery Ball, King of the Hill, Max Chemistry, and Swaps.
  • Refined Objectives System : players can transform the way they play FUT, with new ways to progress and to personalise their FUT Club, along with a range of time-limited and grouped tasks that allows for more complex and rewarding objectives.
  • New Customization Options : create a truly unique FUT Club with new Club Customisation that provides new custom kits, club crests, stadium dressings and banners, celebrations, and more.
  • Squad Management :   a redesigned Squad Screen enables players to access their Active Squad, Transfer Market, and Club Content quickly from one location for the first time.
