Wycombe Wanderers of England striker, Adebayo Akinfenwa is celebrating his emergence as world football’s strongest player, following latest ratings announced via world soccer governing body, FIFA’s virtual game, megasportsarena.com reports.
Tagged FIFA 22, the latest ratings have again placed pole position to the 39-year-old Nigerian-born bulky attacker nicknamed ‘The Beast,’ who never ceases to flaunt his incredible strength and has been the strongest player on multiple versions.
Akinfenwa has now taken to social media to revel in his FIFA 22 rating, ahead of the release of the new simulation video game this week; though him stating that he has been the top man for a decade will stir controversy, as he was dethroned by Ivory Coast’s Sebastien Haller in FIFA 19.
A report by goal.com reveals that the Cote d’Ivoire international bumped up from a 78 overall to an 81, and his 91 strength stat was boosted to 98, thereby getting one point ahead of Akinfenwa, who had before that been the strongest in every edition of the game since FIFA 12.
However, with the new edition of the popular EA Sports series to be released this Friday, Akinfenwa leads the sturdiest footballer ranks with 97 strength points, though he is held back by his 40-rated pace and 56-rated dribbling.
Nonetheless, it is celebration time once again for the former Swansea City, Northampton Town and AFC Wimbledon hitman, who gleefully reeled out his statistics on Instagram while promising to give away free FIFA 22 games to his fans.
Akinfenwa posted: “Yes! EA Sports Fifa and still the strongest in the game…Yeah!! Yeah!!!. Don’t watch any other stat cos I don’t wanna know You get me.
“To celebrate over 10yrs of retaining my title I’ll b doing the Beastmode run with Lenchman where I will be giving away Fifa22 games and other stuff. Make sure u tune in.”
