Every year EA SPORTS adds some big names to the selection of icons in the FIFA editions. According to the well-known Twitter leaker `FUT Zone`, Zico, among others, is to receive a corresponding special item in FIFA 23. The Brazilian is also known as the "white Pele" in his home country and could convince especially with his youth club Flamengo Rio de Janeiro. The playmaker scored a whopping 476 goals in 635 games for the team from the metropolis.

In Europe, Zico laced up his shoes for Udinese Calcio, after working as a coach in Turkey and Russia, among other places, he is currently working as a consultant for Kashima Antlers (Japan). Should he really appear as an icon in FIFA 23, he should be placed in the attacking midfield (CAM). If one trusts further leaks from the Twitter bubble, he could - like all the other cards - be given a secondary position. This should move Zico into the forward line.
