In the upcoming part of the FIFA series from EA Sports, Thierry Henry will likely return as a legend in Ultimate Team mode.
Some rumors about FIFA 17 are already circulating across the internet, but official statements from EA Sports regarding the next installment of their successful series are still pending. Now, former football professional Thierry Henry has tweeted a hint indicating that he will soon be appearing in the football simulation again.
Will Thierry Henry become a FUT Legend in FIFA 17?
The former Arsenal and Barcelona star, who enjoyed great popularity here, tweeted that he would appear as a playable character in a “video game.” He presented an image showing him during the recordings.
While it is not explicitly stated that this is about FIFA 17, it can be assumed. Since the end of his professional career, which he concluded in 2014 with the New York Red Bulls, many FIFA fans have been wishing for Thierry Henry to return to the football simulation. The French superstar has long been regarded as a strong candidate for another FUT Legend.
With the Legends in Ultimate Team mode, EA Sports honors former football stars. So far, these have only been playable on Xbox consoles. Whether this exclusivity also applies to FIFA 17 remains to be seen. But should Thierry Henry become a FUT Legend, he would join the elite circle of exceptional players, such as Pelé, Beckenbauer, or Figo. So far, EA Sports has not officially announced FIFA 17, and Thierry Henry is not confirmed as a future FUT Legend, but there seems to be quite a bit in favor of it.
