Typically, the meta of FC 24 Ultimate Team is dominated by expensive cards. However, there are always players who fly under the radar despite their good stats. We’re showing you a forward who is much better than you think.
This is the situation:
- The coach of the Finnish FC-24 national team, Jeppe Højfeldt, shared a video on his X account showing how he is currently scoring many goals at the highest level in FC 24 Ultimate Team.
- At the center of his tactics is a striker who impresses with his physical profile and seems unstoppable due to his stats, playstyles, and height.
- The player is the Future Stars card of former Bayern professional Joshua Zirkzee, who is now under contract in Serie A with FC Bologna.
- The special version of the Dutch talent, which is actually a silver card, now has a unique profile due to the upgrade – and this is despite his low cost.
- Because the 88-rated version of the forward can be purchased for just 33,000 coins on the transfer market, making him a true secret weapon for the Weekend League.
And so you can surprise your opponents in UT Champions with Zirkzee’s Future Star qualities, we will show you what makes him outstanding and how to effectively utilize him.
Secret weapon for the Weekend League: What makes Zirkzee Future Star so strong in Ultimate Team
These are the qualities he brings: The talent clearly excels in the air. With a height of 1.93 m, the young forward has no reason to hide from any defender. Additionally, the Dutchman possesses excellent stats.
99 in heading accuracy, 99 in jumping, and 99 in physical strength make the 22-year-old a true heading monster.
Along with the Aerial Plus playstyle, which allows the player to jump higher and provides improved physical presence in the air, Zirkzee seems unstoppable.
This is how you must use him: The video shows the simple but effective tactic. Create space on the wing and cross into the penalty area where Zirkzee is already waiting for the high ball.
It’s best to use a formation with only one forward, so the young Dutchman is always alone in the box. Skilled players can also position him even better with the player lock feature.
The video shows how well Zirkzee fights through and scores from almost any position – regardless of which opponent goes up for the header with him. Even if you cannot include him in your starting lineup, he is also perfect as a substitute.
If you are looking for a player to link with the former Bayern professional, you might consider using the base version of Wesley Sneijder, who has even received another special card as part of the new FC Fantasy promo.
