There are a number of players in Italy's top flight that are expecting to receive boosts following a successful 2019/2020 campaign.
Here are five Serie A players likely to receive upgrades in FIFA 21.
FIFA 21 Ratings Predictions: 5 Serie A Players Likely to Receive Upgrades
Ciro Immobile - Lazio - 88 ST
Immobile had an outstanding season for Lazio netting 36 league goals. In addition, he won the European Golden Shoe beating out the likes of Robert Lewandowski and Cristiano Ronaldo. Expect the player to be restored to his 88 overall from FIFA 19 in the latest entry.
Romelu Lukaku - Inter Milan - 86 ST
Lukaku had a return to form for Antonio Conte's Inter side bagging 23 goals during the league season. He was downgraded from 87 to 85 in FIFA 20, but expect him to return to walkout status in FIFA 21 for his performances all season long.
Fabian - Napoli - 84 CM
Napoli's Spanish midfielder is one of the best in Italy. He continues to improve and should receive another upgrade in FIFA 21 following an upgrade to 83 overall this past year.
Victor Osimhen - Napoli - 80 ST
Osimhen transferred from LOSC Lille to Napoli making him reportedly the most expensive African transfer in history topping Arsenal's move for Nicolas Pepe. He's likely to receive an upgrade from 77 overall after receiving a Team of the Season So Far card.
For comparison's sake, Pepe's breakout season for Lille earned him an upgrade from 79 to 83 overall as an Arsenal player.
Josep Ilicic - Atalanta - 85 CF
Atalanta continues to be the Cinderella story of Italy. The side qualified for another Champions League season and is still in contention for this season's tournament. At the forefront is Slovenian forward Ilicic. He might even become a walkout in FIFA 21.
