Giorgio Chiellini is an Italian defender who is currently playing for Juventus. Chiellini is infamous for his physicality and aggressiveness. Chiellini is also capable of playing as a left-back, both in a three or four-man defense. He is deemed one of the best defenders of the 21st century.
Humbly starting his journey in Italy’s third division with Livorno, Chiellini had stints at Roma and Fiorentina before joining Juventus in 2005. October 15, 2005, Giorgio Chiellini made his Juventus debut, coming on as a sub for Pavel Nedved at the match versus Messina, and the rest is history.

FIFA 22 Flashback Giorgio Chiellini SBC Review
As you can see, this is the comparison between the attribute set of the Giorgio Chiellini Flashback version and the base gold card version. It’s easy to spot that the younger version has a much higher pace, which is 12 ratings more elevated than the older version. Reaction and Composure stats also receive a huge buff, which is 8 and 7 stats increased respectively.
Moreover, Chiellini Flashback has a 1 Physicality Overall rating higher. However, if we take a closer look at each constituent attribute, this new card only has a 7 Stamina increase while the rest is lower than the Gold version for 1 each.
Needless to say, because this Flashback card represents Giorgio Chiellini at the early stage of his career, he may have youthfulness and enthusiasm. However, compared with the gold card, which represents his current performance, all experience, consistency, and solidity are what he lacks. This is shown by 3 Defending Overall lower.
However, considering the current game meta preferring high-paced players, this Flashback card is much more usable than the gold version of him. Besides, the Flashback version’s inferiority can be made up by using Chemistry Style, such as Sentinel, which improves both Defending and Physicality stats, making this card an absolute well-rounded beast. Even without the Chemistry Style, we have to admit that the Defending stats of this Italian guy, although lower than his gold card, is still impressive.
When it comes to traits, both versions share the same ones. However, there is only one helpful trait: Dives Into Tackle (and maybe the Power Header), while the rest is useless (Team Player, Injury Prone, and Long Throw-In).
