JUDE Bellingham and Jamal Musiala have been unveiled as the cover stars for EA Sports FC 26, with Swedish legend Zlatan Ibrahimović featuring on the cover of the football game’s Ultimate Edition.
Real Madrid and England star Bellingham returns to the cover of EA Sports FC (formerly known as the FIFA games series) following his debut last year, with his former youth teammate, Musiala, joining him – making him the first FC Bayern Munich player to ever feature on the game’s cover.
Commenting on the news, Jude Bellingham said, “It’s really nice to share this moment with Jamal, as a reflection of how far we’ve come. I remember our times rooming together in the England Youth team, we’d play the game all the time.
“Where I’m from, everyone knows the game, everyone plays it and talks about it so much. I’m grateful to be given the opportunity to be on the cover again.”
Jamal Musiala added, “When I found out I’d be on the cover of FC, it was such a crazy feeling. I thought, how could I tell my little brother? He’s a big fan of the game, so this will be a nice surprise for him. It’s something I always wanted growing up and it’s such a big part of football culture. Who knows, maybe I can still beat Jude at FC.”
EA Sports FC 26 will be released on September 26.
