Even though it has been more than a decade, players on FIFA 15 continue to have nightmares about the front three of AS Roma as they play the game.
The attack of the Serie A team was quick and intense, with Victor Ibarbo and Gervinho providing support for Seydou Doumbia, who is quite possibly the most overpowered player in the history of FIFA.
As a result of the damage that he caused to the sport, Doumbia, an Ivory Coast international who was capped 37 times and won the Africa Cup of Nations in 2015, will forever be regarded as a cult hero by the FIFA community.
During his first stint in Europe, he played for Young Boys of Switzerland, where he scored 57 goals in 78 matches. Later, he moved to CSKA Moscow of Russia, where he is currently playing. His first appearance on the Ultimate Team was in FIFA 11, when he was playing for Young Boys.
Doumbia scored 84 goals during his time with CSKA, including five goals in the Champions League against Manchester City. He also won two Russian Premier League titles during his time with the club.
He was a member of an incredible Russian league team that competed in FIFA 13, along with other notable players such as Hulk, Emmanuel Emenike, Danny, Welliton, Aiden McGeady, and Igor Akinfeev. Simply put, you had to be present.
According to reports, Doumbia joined Roma in January 2015 for a reported fee of 14.4 million euros, and he was a member of that devastating trident.
Nevertheless, his 82-rated card with 93 pace on FIFA 15 proved to be more effective, as Doumbia was only able to find the back of the net twice in a total of 13 appearances before returning to CSKA on loan in August.
After that, he had another brief loan stint with Newcastle in the Premier League, but it was unsuccessful. He made three appearances as a substitute; however, he did not score any goals during his time there.
In the summer of 2016, he returned to Switzerland with Basel, where he won the league after scoring 21 goals in 33 games. This was his third consecutive loan, and it came at the conclusion of the season.
Because of his high price tag, he was unable to secure a permanent transfer, and he ended up spending the 2017–18 season with Sporting CP in Portugal. After that, he signed a permanent contract with Girona in La Liga the following year.
Doumbia wanted to try his luck in the Swiss top flight once more, so he signed with Sion. However, he and eight other teammates were fired in March 2020 for allegedly refusing to take a pay cut when the COVID-19 pandemic struck.
After playing for Hamrun Spartans of the Maltese Premier League for a brief period of time, Doumbia decided to retire from the sport of football in the year 2022.
