WATCH | EA Sports FC 26 new icons list revealed: Zlatan, Marcelo, Iniesta and more
Mumbai: EA Sports FC 26 is making headlines with the addition of 12 new ICONS, bringing fresh star power and global legends to Ultimate Team and Career Mode. The all-new ICON class is arguably one of the most exciting updates in franchise history, blending men’s and women’s football legends and fulfilling years of fan requests.
Among the most anticipated names in EA FC 26, new icons are Swedish superstar Zlatan Ibrahimović, making his ICON debut, Brazilian left-back Marcelo, legendary Spanish midfielder Andrés Iniesta, and German midfield maestro Toni Kroos. The lineup also includes Italian icon Francesco Totti, iconic German goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, USWNT legend Alex Morgan, Swedish star Caroline Seger, Italian defensive giant Giorgio Chiellini, South Korean legend Cha Bum-Kun, Brazilian great Sissi, and Germany’s Steffi Jones.

All 12 EA FC 26 new icons will be available across Ultimate Team, Career Mode, and FC Mobile, with new Archetype mechanics inspired by the unique style of each legend (e.g., Ibrahimović as a “Target,” Alex Morgan as a “Finisher,” and Kroos as a “Maestro”).
