EA Sports has officially unveiled their new cover star for the FIFA 21 next-gen edition – David Beckham. As per reports, the former Manchester United star and current Inter Miami CF co-owner and EA Sports are now under a multi-year deal. While the Beckham Edition will be similar to the Standard Edition, players will have Beckham's character to play with. 

Buyers will have an untradeable David Beckham card to play in FUT. They can even take him to the streets as a Groundbreaker in VOLTA FOOTBALL. The item is a celebration of Beckham's LaLiga debut for Real Madrid during the 2003-04 season. 

The David Beckham character will be available to everyone who has any edition of FIFA 21 across all platforms. "23 years later… so proud to be back on the cover @easportsfifa," Beckham wrote, adding that he is excited to be back on the field with his old teammates.
