Latest EA Sports FC 26 Leak Reveals New Heroes

by

In the heat of its Shapeshifters promotion within Ultimate Team, EA Sports FC 25 is unveiling numerous high-rated cards, such as elite versions of beloved Hero cards. These player cards hold significant value due to their representation of well-loved players from previous seasons and offering a chemistry advantage. Lately, whispers about upcoming Heroes for EA Sports FC 26 have been circulating, and the excitement is palpable among fans.

The information about FC 26, which has been leaked, originates from FUT Latest on Twitter. Although they are relatively new to the scene of leaking details for EA Sports, they have shown a knack for providing accurate info in the past. However, it’s essential to approach this leak with an enormous amount of skepticism. Until there’s an official statement from EA Sports, nothing mentioned below should be considered as confirmed.

According to recent announcements by FUT, it’s expected that eight new Heroes will join FC 26. This year seems to be seeing an abundance of players from the Premier League and Serie A, with only one of these eight originating from a different league. Here is the complete roster:

  • Gilberto Silva – Premier League
  • Jan Koller – Bundesliga
  • Cesc Fabregas – Premier League
  • Esteban Cambiasso – Serie A
  • Andrea Barzagli – Serie A
  • Mario Mandzukic – Serie A
  • Marouane Fellaini – Premier League
  • Michael Carrick – Premier League

Some of the players you’ve mentioned have experience in different leagues, so it’s possible they could switch teams again. For instance, Mandzukic had notable spells at Bayern Munich (German Bundesliga) and Atletico Madrid (Spanish LaLiga), before moving to Juventus in the Italian Serie A. The leagues mentioned are primarily linked with their professional football careers.

Regarding Mandzukic, many players from FIFA’s past are fondly remembered. The tall forward was admired by fans who enjoyed delivering crosses into the penalty area. Cesc Fabregas has long been a FIFA icon, dating back to his tenure at Barcelona and Chelsea. Marouane Fellaini, on the other hand, was one of the exceptional midfielders of the 2010s, playing for Everton and Manchester United during that time.

Besides the well-loved characters, there are other promising individuals who could excel or even shine in EA Sports FC 26. There’s some intriguing information about this new batch of players. For instance, all of them appear to be male, which is somewhat unexpected considering EA Sports has been incorporating female Heroes and Icons for quite some time now.

Moreover, it’s worth noting that there’s essentially one true defensive specialist among them. Barzagli played a crucial role in solidifying Juventus’ defense throughout most of the 2010s. While Gilberto Silva is classified as a CDM, a position with more defensive responsibilities, and multiple players could excel in the midfield role that spans from box to box, this team may be more offense-focused than one might initially think.

It’s possible that additional Icon defenders could join the roster. While some fans anticipate seeing players such as Sergio Aguero and Arjen Robben this season, it seems there may be hints suggesting iconic players like Marcelo, Giorgio Chiellini, and Dani Alves could make their debuts in the Icon series instead.

It’s looking promising that we won’t have to wait too long before getting more details. The anticipated EA Sports FC 26 is slated for its official launch in July. While the developers might not reveal all the new Icons and Heroes at once, expect some of that info to surface by August, giving us a sneak peek before the expected September release.
