So, there will be some new Icons in FC 24 once again FC 24 Coins. But which players deserve to join this elitist circle of white-golden cards? Well, the first leaks give us a pretty good idea about the players... and they are definitely interesting!

EA Sports hasn't confirmed anything officially yet, but we can at least be pretty sure that there will be some new icons in FC 24. This was always the case in the past years, because it shakes things up and FUT becomes more exciting.

To be honest, there are probably thousands of names that could be used as Icons for FUT. Luckily, it will take a few more years until it's Cristiano Ronaldo's and Lionel Messi's turn. For now, some other former superstars deserve the spotlight, and many leaks have dropped two names so far: Gerd Müller and Zico.

Gerd Müller didn't go down in the history books as "Bomber der Nation" for no reason. Before Robert Lewandowski activated Super Saiyan mode in recent years, the German held just about every scoring record imaginable. In 427 Bundesliga games, he scored an incredible 365 goals and contributed another 98 assists. 

Alongside other legends such as Johan Cruyff, Franz Beckenbauer and Elías Figueroa, he was one of the best players of the 1970s. In August 2021, Gerd Müller unfortunately passed away at the age of 75. So, timing-wise, it would definitely make sense if EA Sports would honor him as an Icon in FC 24. 

As one of the greatest strikers of all time, we assume his base to prime ratings will be something like 92/94/96. Anything below that would almost be a bad joke buy EAFC 24 Coins. Fun fact: Zico was called the "white Pelé" as he was one of the most popular Brazilian players of the 1970s and 80s.
