Following the announcement of Carlos Tevez as a FC 24 Hero, EA SPORTS FC have recreated the iconic ‘Welcome To Manchester’ billboard that was unveiled following his headline grabbing move from Manchester United to Manchester City in 2009 – which was met with uproar from both sets of fans at the time.
Complete with the now infamous sky-blue backdrop and reimagined by EA SPORTS FC and Marvel to show Tevez as a comic book hero, the billboard welcomes the former Argentina star and fans to the ‘The Club’, with supporters encouraged to visit the billboard outside Manchester Piccadilly Station and be a part of transfer history.
Event Details:
🗓 Date: Thursday 17th August to Tuesday 22nd August
📍 Location: Piccadilly Station, Manchester
Fans that pre-order FC 24 by August 22 will get an untradable UEFA Champions League or UEFA Women’s Champions League Hero in Ultimate Team: https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/ea-sports-fc/fc-24/buy
Why Carlos ‘El Guerrero’ Tevez is an EA SPORTS FC 24 Hero
Looking for the bravest person on the pitch? Find the player who is willing to go toe-to-toe with Carlos Tevez. As his nickname suggests, ‘El Guerrero’ was more than a world-class striker— he was a warrior, capable of fighting his way to victory. From mind-blowing strikes to effortless one-touch finishes to ingenious set-piece finishes. El Guerrero had it all. The perfect combination of technical ability, physical power and an endless desire to win. Never tired of fighting for glory, Tevez has achieved an impressive three Premier League titles, an FA Cup winner’s medal, and the Golden Boot, all whilst proudly wearing a City shirt. Tevez epitomizes what being an Ultimate Team Hero means, good enough to win without breaking a sweat, but heroic enough to always give it everything he had. Resilience, persistence, and the desire to win. That is what makes an Ultimate Team Hero.
