90 million matches played using the Serie A Polo Vintage kit in EA SPORTS FC™ 26
The LEGA CALCIO Polo Vintage kit has been a major in-game success, ranking among the ten most-used kits by players worldwide in the Football Ultimate Team (FUT) mode of EA SPORTS FC™ 26.
Since its release on December 2, the kit has already been chosen by over 1.2 million users, featuring in more than 90 million matches in which at least one of the two teams wore the iconic shirt. These figures highlight the strong appeal of the Lega Calcio Serie A brand and its tradition among fans and new generations alike.
The LEGA CALCIO Polo Vintage was developed by Lega Calcio Serie A in collaboration with PUMA and features the iconic historic Lega Calcio logo, a design element that pays tribute to the heritage of Italian football.
Thanks to the partnership between Lega Calcio Serie A and EA SPORTS FC, the Polo Vintage also debuted in EA SPORTS FC™ 26 as the official kit of the Serie A Classic Team, the in-game team made up of Serie A legends.
This is not the first time that Lega Calcio Serie A has made a special kit available to EA SPORTS FC™ players for use in-game. In the past, the “Keep Racism Out” jerseys — symbol of the anti-racism campaign promoted for several years by Lega Calcio Serie A — also received widespread appreciation.
