Who gave FIFA EA Sport permission to use my name and face? A.C. Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is very angry at FIFA EA Sport, claiming they used his name and face in the FIFA video game series without taking permission from him.
The 39-year-old Swedish professional footballer slammed the organization in a tweet on Monday saying he has never allowed the company to make money using his face and it is time to investigate.
“Who gave FIFA EA Sport permission to use my name and face? @FIFPro? I’m not aware to be a member of Fifpro and if I am I was put there without any real knowledge through some weird manouver. And for sure I never allowed @FIFAcom or Fifpro to make money using me.” Ibrahimovic slammed the company.
Somebody is making profit on my name and face without any agreement all these years.

Time to investigate

It is the 28th installment in the FIFA series, and was released 9 October 2020 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
It was reported that during Sunday’s match, 3-1 win over Napoli, Ibrahimovic suffered an injury to the left hamstring muscle and a new exam will be done in 10 days.
