EA FC Mobile might receive a fresh set of legendary roster, as reliable leaker @MazenFCM on X (formerly Twitter) has hinted at eight new Icons being added to the game soon. While there’s no official date yet, the rumored update if held true, will be an add-on to the current season, not a season reset.
The rumored Icons include a mix of recently retired stars and long-awaited legends, making the update one of the most anticipated yet. Notably, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Toni Kroos, Andrés Iniesta, Marcelo, and Giorgio Chiellini, all of whom were regular FC Mobile players, are now set to be immortalized as Icons following their official retirement from professional football.
Meanwhile, long-requested names such as Oliver Kahn, Francesco Totti, and Cha Bum-Kun are finally expected to debut.
Here’s everything we know about the rumour so far.
Kroos, Ibrahimović, Marcelo and more legends might return to EA FC Mobile as Icons according to leaks
Here’s a breakdown of the players and their rumored base Icon OVRs, as seen in the leaked image:
- Oliver Kahn (GK) - 91 OVR
- Andrés Iniesta (CM) - 91 OVR
- Zlatan Ibrahimović (ST) - 91 OVR
- Marcelo (LB) - 90 OVR
- Toni Kroos (CM) - 90 OVR
- Francesco Totti (CAM) - 90 OVR
- Giorgio Chiellini (CB) - 88 OVR
- Cha Bum-Kun (ST) - 88 OVR
It’s important to note that these OVRs are base versions, and based on how EA typically rolls out Icon content, higher OVR special cards such as Prime or Event Icons, could follow later.
If this leak holds true, players can expect not just standard additions, but possibly limited-time cards with boosted attributes in upcoming events.
Since no official event or exchange has been revealed yet, it’s likely that the cards will be released gradually, either through new Icon chapters, SBC-style exchanges, or promo pack rotations.
For now, it remains a rumor and EA FC mobile must consider this with a grain of salt. However, considering the leaker’s track record and authenticity, this has got a very high chance of turning into reality.
