AMAZING ALLIANCE - Marchisio covered every blade of grass at Juve's home ground

Part of the side that made the Champions League final twice, he was a real box-to-box midfielder, tenacious in tackling, calm with the ball at his feet, and with an eye for goal.

We don't yet know what his rating will be in FIFA 23, but he could be much sought after at the start of the Ultimate Team cycle.

The Old Lady is BACK

EA has just announced an exclusive partnership deal with Juventus, meaning the Italian giants can now throw off their generic Piemonte Calcio colours and return to the iconic black and white stripes.

BACK IN BLACK (AND WHITE) - Juventus will feel authentic once again in FIFA 23

Although there are still more deals to be struck within Serie A, the return of Juventus is a great move for EA after the club has been absent in the previous few years.

Authentic kits, logo and Juventus' Allianz Stadium will all feature in FIFA 23 and beyond in EA Sports FC, after the multi-year partnership was agreed upon.

FUT Heroes

FUT Heroes were new items in FIFA 22 that represent the unforgettable moments that turned the individual players into fan favourites.

The FIFA community view FUT Heroes as one level below an ICON in Ultimate Team.

FUT Heroes have league-specific chemistry which is tied to their specific hero moment, providing a green Club link to any player within the same league, as well as the usual nation link.

Throughout the FUT 22 season, we saw the FUT Heroes gain upgrades in the FUT Captains and Shapeshifters promos, to keep them in line with the increased power curve of the game.
