EA FC 26: With EA FC 25 winding down, attention has already turned to what’s coming next—and if recent leaks are anything to go by, EA FC 26 might be packing one of the most iconic lineups yet.

According to reliable leakers in the FIFA/EA FC community, several legendary footballers are set to debut as Icons in next season’s Ultimate Team mode. Among the biggest names? Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Andres Iniesta, and Toni Kroos.

Zlatan Finally Gets His Icon Moment

After hanging up his boots in 2023, fans have been waiting for EA to give Zlatan the Icon treatment. Known for his strength, flair, and spectacular goals, Ibrahimovic could quickly become one of the most in-demand cards in FC 26.

Midfield Royalty: Iniesta and Kroos Join the Ranks

Andres Iniesta, a creative genius from the golden era of FC Barcelona, is reportedly joining the Icon lineup. With Xavi and Puyol already in the game, Iniesta’s arrival would round out a dream midfield trio for Barça fans.

Toni Kroos, another recent retiree, is also tipped to appear. His surgical passing and calm control in the middle of the park could make him a go-to option for players looking to dominate possession.

  • Marcelo
  • Francesco Totti
  • Oliver Kahn
  • Giorgio Chiellini
  • Alex Morgan
  • Steffi Jones
  • Sissi

It’s a diverse lineup that spans eras, continents, and both the men’s and women’s games. From Alex Morgan’s attacking flair to Oliver Kahn’s commanding presence in goal, each of these players brings something unique to the table—especially under the game’s evolving FC IQ and PlayStyles systems.

Why These Icons Matter

In Ultimate Team, Icons are more than just high-rated legends—they're fan favourites designed to reflect each player’s prime.
