The French megastar was on the cover of FIFA 22 and after being the subject of a tussle between two of Europe’s top clubs this year has been brought back to star on the cover of FIFA 23. The Paris Saint-Germain player is one of the best players in all of football and is still just 23 years old.
Sam Kerr
Women’s football gets a representative on the cover this year and there are few players more deserving than Sam Kerr. The Chelsea Women’s player blazed a trail in her native Australia and America before making her way to the Women’s Super League and firing Chelsea to success.
