FIFA 21: New Icons

There are about 12 'new' faces that take the number of in-game legends to 101 this year! 11 materialized at launch, along with the former England captain David Beckham who is a surprise addition in November 2020. If you want to know who else is new in this edition, read this WhatsGaming FIFA 21 Icons guide.

David Beckham (England)



Beckham entered FIFA 21 fray in November and he has 4 cards available rather than 3, which makes him a unique item on the list. Although the 4th card is not really an item but represents his debut for Real Madrid in 2003/04 which is free to grab for all FIFA players as long as it's claimed before 15 January 2021.

Bastian Schweinsteiger (Germany)

Schweinsteiger was still with MLS club Chicago Fire when FIFA 21 was released which his common gold card could still be found throughout the summer  (38.000 coins). and he's positioned as a midfielder for FIFA 21. 

Eric Cantona (France)

Cantona is a 54 years old FIFA player and is a legendary striker and has spent most of his career at Manchester United. He is invited to a round of co-op FUT and of course, according to his nickname "King Eric", he is portrayed as worthy (king).


Samuel Eto’o (Cameroon)

Eto’o’s icon cards represent spectacular spells with Barcelona (108 goals in 144 appearances) and Inter Milan (33 in 67) and also Premier League teams, Chelsea and Everton.

Petr Cech (Czech Republic)

It seems likely that Cech would only be added to the latest squads if he were to be selected for a matchday squad this season. And as Chelsea's manager, Frank Lampard has announced, Cech is one of the four goalkeepers in his squad.

Ashley Cole (England)



As he was last seen in FIFA 19 as the England left-back, now is back in FIFA 21 with the pace of 90 and including cards based on his days rampaging up the flank for Arsenal and Chelsea.

Philipp Lahm (Germany)

Lahm is positioned as right-back, left-back, and midfielder which pretty sure he will get one FIFA 21 icon card for each position.

Fernando Torres (Spain)

Torres retired in 2019 with 200 goals in 578 senior club appearances to his name – adding 38 for the Spanish national side.

Xavi (Spain)

The two Spanish additions (Torres and Xavi) had a bonkers career between 1997 and 2016. He won the World Cup in 2010, the European Championships in 2008 and 2012, was named in UEFA’s Team Of The Year five times, and won four Champions Leagues and eight La Liga championships with Barcelona.

Ferenc Puskas (Hungary)

Puskas scored 514 goals in 530 games with Budapest Honved and Real Madrid. His name, along with Maradona, Pele, and Cruyff are playable in FIFA 21 virtual form which expands your attacking options but it will not cost you cheaply!

Nemanja Vidic (Serbia)

He is one of the modern era’s greatest center-backs. If we take a look at his history he is nothing but a Manchester United legend! Three league cups, five Premier League wins, victory in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League and 2008 FIFA Club World Cup, and let's not forget about his old Trafford days that were bookended with spells at Spartak Moscow and Inter Milan.

Davor Šuker (Croatia)


The top 52 Croatia 52-years old footballer with 45 goals earned a Serie A/Champions League double with Real Madrid in 1997-98, and later that summer fired his country to the World Cup semi-finals.
