Sergio Aguero (OVR 93)
Goal-machine Sergio Aguero could be one of the biggest names to receive a Carniball boost! The Argentinian star has scored 16 goals in just 19 Premier League games so far this season and is showing no signs of slowing down.
A Carniball card could become his highest-rated FUT card of the season with 93 overall. It would add to the list of special cards he already boasts which include a Halloween card, a TOTY Nominee and a POTM!
Roberto Firmino (OVR 91)

Koke (OVR 90)
Atletico Madrid captain Koke has been one of the most consistent performers in Europe for several seasons now. Atletico’s challenging season and injuries have prevented Koke from his best form, however the versatile Spaniard would slot into most teams around Europe.
