Electronic Arts has unveiled Real Madrid and England superstar Jude Bellingham as the cover athlete for EA SPORTS FC 25. Bellingham will feature on the cover of both the Standard and Ultimate Editions, set to release globally later this year.
Jude Bellingham, the youngest cover star in EA SPORTS football game history, will also appear as the new cover athlete for EA SPORTS FC Mobile. The Standard Edition cover, captured during April’s El Clásico, showcases Bellingham’s iconic “Belligol” celebration after scoring the match-winning goal at Bernabéu.
In a move only EA SPORTS FC could pull off, the Ultimate Edition cover brings together football’s biggest names. Bellingham joins Ballon d’Or Féminin winner Aitana Bonmatí and football legend David Beckham on the Madrid set. The cover also features icons Zinedine Zidane and Gianluigi Buffon alongside the world’s top 17 football trophies, each representing iconic moments in the stars’ careers.
Jude is a perfect ambassador for EA SPORTS FC
“From the moment Jude stepped onto the world stage, he exemplified what it means to give everything for the club,” said EA SPORTS FC Brand Vice President David Jackson. “His performances for both club and country and his ability to create special moments for fans solidify his status as a generational talent. Jude is a perfect ambassador for EA SPORTS FC, embodying our future as we transcend sports, culture, and entertainment.”
Jude Bellingham’s stellar season at Real Madrid saw him win the UEFA Champions League, LALIGA EA SPORTS, and Supercopa de España. He also earned several individual accolades, including LALIGA Player of the Season, Laureus Breakthrough of the Year, and the Golden Boy and Kopa Trophies for the world’s best under-21 player. This summer, Bellingham helped lead England to the UEFA EURO 2024 final, solidifying his superstar status and his place on the EA SPORTS FC 25 cover.
“As a kid, I always played this game with my brother and wondered how incredible it would be to be on the cover one day,” said Bellingham. “There have been so many iconic players on the cover over the years, and I’m thrilled to be the latest English player to receive this honor since 2011. It’s also a huge honor to be on the Ultimate Edition cover alongside legends like Beckham, Bonmatí, Buffon, and Zidane.”
