Who will make it to the shell in 2022? – All hot rumours

Almost nothing is known about FIFA 23 yet. Because of this, fans are wondering who will take a seat on the cover? Mbappé, Haaland or someone else?

Paris, France – In a few weeks it’s time. Then EA will release the reveal trailer for FIFA 23. So far, EA Sports has been stingy with official information about the latest FIFA offshoot. This creates a lot of speculation within the FIFA community on the most important issues. For example, when asked who will be on the cover of FIFA 23? Will it be Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé or someone else entirely?

FIFA 23: Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappe? That speaks for and against the youngsters as cover stars

Kylian Mbappé as the cover star: If you take a look at the past FIFA releases, you can see that there was a lot of movement on the cover. From Cristiano Ronaldo to Marco Reus or Eden Hazard. Long gone are the days when Lionel Messi graced the cover.

Since FIFA 21, the cover boy has been Kylian Mbappé. The 2018 world champion is on track to become a future Ballon d’Or winner. Kylian Mbappé is also likely to start as a favorite for the FIFA 23 cover, but there are some aspects against the third consecutive cover with the France international.

Kylian Mbappé was hardly able to collect any plus points from football fans in the past season. The declining sympathy for PSG and the new mega contract, which gives Kylian Mbappé a say in team formation, transfers and coach selection, make it doubtful that Kylian Mbappé will land on the cover of FIFA 23 again.

Erling Haaland as cover star: The closest competitor for the FIFA 23 cover is likely to be Manchester City newcomer Erling Haaland. The “breaker with the baby face” has been able to collect similarly impressive scorer points as Kylian Mbappé in the past three years. His move to the Premier League also gives Erling Haaland an even bigger stage to show off his skills. Both players already have endorsement deals with EA.

FIFA 23: No Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappé in sight – These are the players the fans want on the cover

Cover survey surprises: While the FIFA 23 cover decision is likely to be between the aforementioned Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland, fans are still hoping for an outsider win.

On the FIFA portal fifplay.com fans could choose their favorite player for the FIFA 23 cover. With Rihad Mahrez and Mohamed Salah, two African players were able to cause a surprise in the voting. A surprise is also a leak, which announces Gerd Müller as an icon in FIFA 23.

The favorite candidates Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé, on the other hand, ended up in 7th and 9th place in the voting. It remains to be seen how EA will decide on the FIFA 23 cover question. Meanwhile, we’ll make the decision for you on the FIFA 23 pre-order question.
