The arrival of FIFA 21 it's getting closer. Electronic Arts is accompanying the release of the annual chapter, at least on current gen, with the usual series of information, dedicated, gradually, to the most important aspects of production. After talking about the first details on what will be the "new" Ultimate Team and in general the new way of approaching it, the Canadian software house has begun to dwell in more detail, officially announcing the new Icons available starting next October 9th.
With FIFA 21, in fact, eleven new elements have been introduced, thus bringing the total number of stars of the past to one hundred. Former Inter Milan stand out among the new champions Samuel Eto'o, hero of the Nerazzurri “treble”, the former captain of Bayern Munich, new European champion Phillp Lahm and the star of the Nike commercials, former Manchester United champion Eric Cantonà. To help you in your choice, however, we have decided to draw up the complete list of all the players present, with their nationality, essential to increase the understanding of your club, highlighting, however, all the new additions.
