In the words of Giorgio Ricci, Head of Global Partnerships and Corporate Revenues, “Juventus’ agreement with EA SPORTS is of great importance because it represents the first time that an Italian football club has signed a partnership with the video gaming giant and allows us to truly reach out to the entertainment industry on a worldwide scale given the popularity of FIFA 17 among young people and indeed the rest of the market.”

We couldn’t be more excited that they are now an official global partner. It’s a great opportunity to bring an authentic experience of this historic club to fans in FIFA 17,” added Jamie McKinlay, Vice President of Marketing, EA Sports.

With Frostbite, FIFA 17’s new game engine, we’re bringing true-to-life experiences to our players, and this will be showcased through the new player likenesses and Juventus Stadium.”
