New Icons

For those who prefer to craft a legend rather than lead a club, three fresh ICONs have parked themselves in EA FC 25’s Player Career Mode via Live Start Points:

1. Samuel Eto’o – The Cameroonian sniper whose lethal finishing made him a Champions League hero.
2. Ronaldinho Gaúcho – Master of flair, delight and samba-style magic, ready to teach your custom star a trick or two.
3. Henrik Larsson – The Swedish workhorse whose tireless runs and clinical touches still haunt defenders.

We all love to play with the ICON we loved in the past and love to experience their skills on the field—be it Eto’o’s poacher’s instincts or Ronaldinho’s audacious dribbles.
