Zlatan Ibrahimovic caused something of a stir at the end of 2020 when he asked who had given EA Sports permission to use his name and face on FIFA 21.
It served to demonstrate that the question of image rights is a serious one for footballers and football teams, with financial considerations associated.
In many cases, video game companies such as EA Sports, Sports Interactive and Konami must negotiate agreements with various parties in order to gain permission to reproduce likenesses in virtual media.

EA Sports' FIFA franchise is one of the most extensive and realistic football games on the market, but even it has been impacted.
Here, Goal takes a look at the clubs that are not officially in FIFA 21.
Which clubs are not officially in FIFA 21?
The most high-profile 'absence' from FIFA 21 in terms of official nomenclature and team badges is undoubtedly Juventus - known as 'Piemonte Calcio' in the EA Sports game.
Juve's absence is the result of an exclusive deal the Italian club has with Konami, which has been in place since FIFA 20.
While Juventus are not officially in FIFA 21, it is in appearance only - EA Sports says 'generic kits and crests' are used. Real-world players, including the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Dybala, are still included.
A number of other clubs from Serie A are also not officially represented in FIFA 21, including Roma (Roma FC), Spezia (La Spezia) and FC Crotone (Crotone).
| Club | Name in FIFA 21 |
|---|---|
| Boca Juniors | Buenos Aires |
| Corinthians | Oceanico FC |
| Juventus | Piemonte Calcio |
| River Plate | Nunez |
| Roma | Roma FC |
| Spezia Calcio | La Spezia |
| FC Crotone | Crotone |
Argentine behemoths Boca Juniors and River Plate are known as 'Buenos Aires' and 'Nunez' in the game, meaning the Superclasico will have a different feel to it in the latest edition of FIFA.
One Brazilian club appears in altered form in FIFA 21 is Corinthians - donning the moniker 'Oceanico FC'.
A number of other major Brazilian clubs only appear in the game in the Copa Libertadores tournament: Sao Paulo, Vasco da Gama, Flamengo, Palmeiras, Sport Recife and Red Bull Bragantino.
According to EA Sports, Brazilian clubs launch with generic player names and are not included in Ultimate Team.
It is also somewhat complicated when it comes to international teams on FIFA 21, with a number of teams playing in generic kits and flags used in place of official badges.

Many of you may already know what FIFA mods and patches are and how to play with them, but for those that have no idea, this article will sort the matter for you. It is no secret that FIFA titles severely lack in certain departments and the focus is normally on features most players don’t want to use or see. So, how do you get the features you want in your favourite FIFA game? Simple, you add them! Thanks to the magic of modding, it is super easy to play FIFA exactly the way you want. Here’s why mods and patches are the way to play FIFA, and any other game if possible, and how to go about it.
What is a Mod/Patch?
A game mod is, simply put, a package/file that modifies the vanilla game. It can be anything, from gameplay to graphical changes and the idea of mods is to enhance the gameplay experiences. Graphics can include kits, player faces, banners, balls, boots, adboards or 2D faces aka minifaces.
Patches are essentially the same thing with just minor changes in what they do and are also a part of mods. These mods are created by modders of the gaming community who pursue modding as a hobby and do it out of the love of the game and the fanbase.

How Do They Work?

Mods can either improve the mechanics of the game or provide visual enhancements. Take FIFA for example. There are gameplay mods out there that help in improving the AI level and creating a more natural flowing match. Some mods focus on the mechanics and help tweak the AI for the boardroom, players, youth academy, etc. You can also find mods that do it all in one single package.
Then you have the visual mods that help give you skins, overlays, tournament themes and more. You can even get player faces, boots, kits, etc. to make your gameplay more immersive. Installing mods is super easy and all you need is some basic knowledge in how they work and how to install them. Please note that mods can be used only on PCs and do not work on consoles.
Mods are script and data files that are installed into the game so that the game can read them and change the way it works. You need a software to install and run mods and that is Paulv2k4 Modding Tool. Install the software and link it to your FIFA application and you’re good to go! Each mod needs to be installed by the software before you can run your game and that will take some time to occur. Let’s just say, the installation is long enough for you to go spend some time over at luckynuggetcasino.com, but hopefully your computer is kind to you!
