EA Sports through its website has unveiled the official roster of the 100 Icon that we will find in the FIFA 21 Ultimate Team mode.
Recall that the Icon will receive three special versions that will be released during the season. At the bottom of the image with all the Icons.
Introducing the FUT 100, 100 of the greatest footballers ever to play the game.
ERIC CANTONA
From a King to an ICON. Eric Cantona was a player who made history every time he stepped onto a pitch. Stylish, wily, maverick talent with a ferocious competitive drive, his approach to the game was totally unique in England. Four Premier League titles, two FA Cups, some larger than life moments and 73 goals later, his impact is still felt today. In Manchester and beyond. All hail King Eric.
PETR ฤECH
Petr ฤechโs incredible consistency between the sticks laid the base for Chelsea to win four Premier League titles, four FA Cups and a UEFA Champions League trophy. ฤech was famed for his concentration, leadership and he always had a bit of magic in his gloves for the right occasion. Itโs no surprise he holds the record for most clean sheets in Premier League history.
ASHLEY COLE
After being a part of the record-breaking Invincibles, Ashley Cole moved across the river to continue his legendary career. Known for bombing forward and contributing to the attack in his early days, later on he became more diligent and tactical. Cole excelled at both sides of the game, which is why he played 107 times for England โ becoming the most capped full-back in English history, earning himself a claim to being the nationโs greatest ever left back.

SAMUEL ETOโO
Widely regarded as one of the greatest African players of all-time, Samuel Etoโo was a titan. Devastating finishing, coupled with pace, trickery and a grafty tactical nous, Etoโo preceded his own reputation. Goals wherever he went vaulted his teams to UEFA Champions League glory on three occasions, with Etoโo scoring in two finals. A marksman on the pitch and an arrow for humanitarian causes off it, Etoโo was more than just a striker. He was a creator, facilitator and leader. A legend, in the truest sense.
PHILLIP LAHM
A consistent, technically complete footballer, Phillip Lahmโs name is associated with excellence. His tactical versatility, whether deployed in his native role of full-back, or pushed further into midfield, Lahmโs diligence, grit and grace made him a competitor who led by example. Over 20 career titles including the FIFA World Cup and UEFA Champions League make Lahm a player who will be studied for years to come.
FERENC PUSKรS
There are few players who stand as tall as Ferenc Puskรกs in football history, let alone Real Madridโs near-fictional club lineage. Widely recognised as one of the greatest forwards ever, Puskรกs drove Madrid to three European Cups, with his dribbling ability, movement and perfect timing contributing to some of Real Madridโs most glorious moments. He also carried Hungary to a FIFA World Cup final โ amassing 84 goals in 85 appearances for his nation. The FIFA โโPuskรกsโโ Award is given to the scorer of the best goal each year. You can only imagine what the man itโs named afterโs goals were like.
BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER
A vital cog of Germanyโs golden generation, Schweinsteigerโs solidity, technique and craft created a new template for German midfielders. Initially a winger, after moving into the centre of midfield his ingenuity and drive earned him eight Bundesliga titles and one UEFA Champions League trophy as captain โ as well as the honour of leading Germany to the FIFA World Cup in 2014.
DAVOR ล UKER
Croatia produces many stars, but Davor ล uker might be the most iconic of them all. After pulling up trees at Sevilla, he moved to Real Madrid and firmly planted himself as one of his generationโs best strikers. Firing the Blaugrana to a league and UEFA Champions League double in the 1997-1998 season. ล uker also fired Croatia to the FIFA World Cup semi-finals in 1998, winning the Golden Boot with six goals in seven games. He remains Croatiaโs all-time top scorer with 45 goals. ล uker inspired a nation.
FERNANDO TORRES
Fernando Torres stands as one of the most feared strikers of his generation. Bursting onto the scene at Atlรฉtico de Madrid scoring 82 goals in 214 apps, it was at Liverpool where El Niรฑo set the game alight. Fusing strength, skill and killer instinct, Torres terrorised defences for club and country. Scoring in two UEFA European Championship finals in addition to a vital goal for Chelsea on their way to winning the UEFA Champions League, Torres was a striker of the ages, for big occasions.
NEMANJA VIDIฤ
Nemanja Vidiฤ took his time to settle in the Premier League, but once he had, he became one of the most feared defensive combatants the league has ever seen. A typical โโfront-footโโ defender who liked to get ahead of the attacker โ employing a combination of grit, guile and tactical balance to ensnare any threats. Forming a legendary partnership with fellow ICON Rio Ferdinand, Vidicโs commitment to the team, warriors spirit and sound technique led to more than 15 honours in a glittering career.
XAVI
Xavi Hernรกndez is one of the most storied midfield players of all time. Able to dictate the pace of a game on his own or in a double-pivot, the indelible honours list speaks for itself. His ability to control a midfield and shape attacking patterns transformed the idea of what a midfielder should be. His game has been analysed and dissected but never quite emulated. Few could pull strings finely as โโThe Puppet Masterโโ did.
