EA have announced a very strange feature for the upcoming FC 26 title called ‘Zlatan FC’. For the first time, players will be able to field a full squad of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s, fulfilling the legendary footballer’s famous assertion that he can play every position on the pitch.
🚨🇸🇪 You can play as a full team of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s in FC 26

What is Zlatan FC?
Zlatan FC is a fully playable team in the Kick Off mode of FC 26. The team’s roster consists of a single player, Zlatan Ibrahimović, in all eleven positions. This means you will have a Zlatan in goal, a Zlatan in defense, a Zlatan in midfield, and a Zlatan up front. The team also features a Zlatan FC kit with some pink lashes on a black background with the letter Z as the centrepiece. You can find the team in the Rest of the World section.
According to a press release, Ibrahimović himself was involved in the concept, stating: “Zlatan is pleased to finally be able to express himself in all areas of the pitch. Fans will no longer have to decide who to play in what position, because they will have the best player available – me.”
Fans were a bit confused and wondered as to why there was a need for EA to use their resources on this project when other game modes such as Career mode have been neglected.
It’s just stupid though ain’t it

With the game’s worldwide release set for September 26, 2025 (and early access from September 19 for Ultimate Edition pre-orders for which Zlatan is the cover star), fans will soon get to experience the sheer, unadulterated power of a full team of Zlatans.
