The FC 24 Heroes list represents players who come so very close to being iconic – but aren’t quite hall-of-fame worthy. This season sees 19 new ones added forEA Sports FC 24, to complement those already found on theFIFA 23 Heroeslist. Below we profile seven of them, including popular TV broadcaster Alex Scott, before taking you through the full list of new FC 24 Heroes cards.
How FC 24 Heroes cards work
Each FC 24 Heroes card is assigned to a particular league. They automatically receive full chemistry when playing in one of their primary or secondary positions. Additionally, they provide an extra league link to all players from their same league, and a single nation link to all players from their same nation. 19 new items are added this year, and you can see them all at the foot of this guide.
While you may recognise her first and foremost as a pundit for the BBC and Sky Sports, Scott was capped 140 times for England in her playing days – and scored the winner for Arsenal in the 2007 UEFA Women’s Cup Final. She’s featured here because, as explained in ourEA Sports FC 24 preview, this year sees Ultimate Team mix male and female players for the first time. Other female Heroes include Nadine Kessler, who we’ll profile shortly, and Sonia Bompastor (LB, D1 Féminine, 89).
He may be making his name as a manager after steering Burnley to promotion last season, but Kompany is best known as one of the most imperious ball-playing centre backs of the modern era. His Belgium side never quite lived up to its potential, but a club career stacked with trophies means he likely sleeps very well and night. Kompany spent 11 seasons with Manchester City – eight of them as captain – and won the Premier League in four of them, as well as two FA Cups and four League Cups. City also feature highly in ourFC 24 best kitsguide.
Who can forget the Nigerian’s legendary celebration in the 2009-10 season? Kanu scored for Manchester City against his former club Arsenal, then ran the length of the field to gloat in front of the fans who once adored him. However, it’s not that mad, magic moment which is honoured here. Instead, EA wants to toast the big man’s years at Ajax. He won the Eredivisie three years running from 1994 to 1996, and took part in two Champions League finals: winning Europe’s biggest competition in 1994-095, and finishing runner-up the following year.
