We are getting closer to the announcement of FIFA 22, so it’s understandable that new rumors and leaks are starting to appear. Apart from a new type of card, we already have some details about which players will make it to the Icons roster -- home of the best Ultimate Team cards.
Despite those legends already introduced, such as Xavi Hernández, Fernando Torres and Samuel Eto’o, there are others that will join the roster. This was revealed by insider FUTarcade, a usually trusted source for FIFA information, posting videos and GIFs of players via Twitter.
Brazilian player Cafu, one of the best right-backs of all time, and Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stéfano, are the two main upcoming additions according to FUTarcade. However, there are many more players coming, as you can see below:
