As we head towards the middle of September, the launch of the latest edition of FIFA is closing in.
FIFA 20 is set for release at the end of the month, with the top 100 players already having had their ratings announced. The likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette featured, but some fans have been speculating on the rating of Mustafi.
Twitter: Raul really bribed EA to make Mustafi an 83 so we can sell him for loads in January? Don Raul has done it again https://t.co/DwuSuNJ2fo (@dannybell02)

READ ARSENAL VERDICT
It has to be said that Mustafi’s rating for FIFA 20 has not been officially confirmed and this 83-rated card is only a rumour at this stage.
However, if it is true then it is a baffling decision from EA – after a poor season for the German centre-back. He was given an 82-rated card after his 2017/18 campaign, but recorded a lower WhoScored rating last term – suggesting that he is deserving of a downgrade, rather than an upgrade.
Mustafi has also lost his place in the Arsenal side, with David Luiz joining the club from Chelsea to start alongside Sokratis in Unai Emery’s team. This suggests that the Spanish manager was not happy with Mustafi’s performances last season and looked to replace him in the summer, which he did.
