Prime Icon Gianfranco Zola Player Review

While you'll need plenty of work to unlock the Prime Icon version of Zola, it's work that will pay off when you realize just how special he can be on the pitch.

There's no shocker than his Defending and Physicality dip, but all of his Pace, Shooting, and Passing attributes are at least 83 or higher, with his only sub-83 under Dribbling being a 79 in Composure.

Zola will shine for you when it comes to scoring and passing with a 93 in Dribbling, 92 in Ball Control, 92 in Finishing, 92 in Free Kick Accuracy, 91 in Shot Power, and 90s in Short Passing, Curve, Long Shots, and Reactions.

There's no doubt this centre midfielder can be a differencemaker on your squad, so don't waste too much time and miss out by letting this Icon SBC expire.
