After his move to Juventus Turin, EA now shows for the first time how Ronaldo looks in FIFA 19 with a new jersey.
Update: Here is the final cover of FIFA 19.
The sudden transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid to Juventus Turin surprised the entire football world. EA Sports was caught off guard as Ronaldo was still announced as the cover star for FIFA 19 in his Real jersey. In a short “Champions Rise” trailer, Ronaldo is now shown via Twitter alongside some other Juve players, such as Giorgio Chiellini, Paulo Dybala, Douglas Costa, and Emre Can.
It seems we can soon expect the first images of the new cover featuring CR7. In the meantime, there were even rumors that Neymar might be considered as a replacement for the cover.
