Which player was on the worldwide cover of FIFA 21?

Kylian Mbappé was the worldwide cover athlete for FIFA 21.

Electronic Arts announced the Paris Saint-Germain and France forward as FIFA 21’s cover star in July 2020. He appeared on the Standard, Champions, and Ultimate editions, making him the central global face of that release.

Mbappé’s selection followed his rise as one of football’s most prominent young players. He had already won the 2018 FIFA World Cup with France and was a leading attacking player for Paris Saint-Germain.

Cover athletes can vary by edition or territory in some earlier FIFA games, which causes occasional confusion. FIFA 21, however, used Mbappé as its worldwide cover player across the main editions.
