The licensing landscape for EA FC 26 continues to evolve, particularly when it comes to Italy’s prestigious Serie A competition.
As we discussed in our previous articles, the licensing situation for Italy’s Serie A Enilive in EA FC 26 presents a mixed picture that has left many fans wondering about their favorite clubs’ situation.
The good news is that the Serie A Enilive league itself is fully and exclusively licensed, guaranteeing an authentic experience with the official league branding, trophy, and broadcast packages thanks to a multi-year partnership with EA SPORTS.
However, EA SPORTS must still negotiate separate agreements with each team, creating uncertainty about which clubs will be fully authentic in the game.
In this article, we’ll dive deep into the current situation of three significant clubs: AS Roma, SSC Napoli, and Pisa SC, exploring what players can expect when EA FC 26 release.
