EA Sports has officially unveiled Zlatan Ibrahimovic as the cover star for EA FC 26’s Ultimate Edition, marking a monumental return for the legendary striker to the beloved football franchise.
The Swedish icon, who enjoyed a glittering career with clubs like AC Milan, Manchester United, PSG, and Barcelona, is widely expected to receive a coveted Icon card in the game — one of the rarest and most prestigious player cards available in EA FC’s Ultimate Team mode.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, now 43, retired from professional football in 2023 with a staggering record to his name: 496 goals and 203 assists across 827 career appearances. His most explosive spell came during his time at Paris Saint-Germain, where he scored an astonishing 156 goals in 180 matches, solidifying his legacy as one of football’s most dominant forwards.
Fans can expect more exciting updates on Wednesday, as EA FC 26’s official trailer drops on YouTube, with additional features, gameplay innovations, and special editions likely to be revealed.
With Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s towering return as a digital Icon, EA FC 26 looks set to continue blending football nostalgia with cutting-edge gameplay for its global fanbase.
