EA’s unexpected giveaway is to celebrate the legendary midfielder's La Liga debut for Real Madrid in the 2003/04 season. Beckham will therefore be locked to England and La Liga for chemistry, with Kieran Trippier of Atletico Madrid and Yunus Musah of Valencia being the only other players in the same boat. In addition, Beckham has three Icon cards rated 87, 89, and 92, where the lowest costs 1 million coins to remove the chemistry barrier.

The England star was recently welcomed back to the Fifa franchise after signing a three-year deal with EA. According to UK publication the Mirror, Beckham was offered £40 million (approximately $54,096,080) to appear in the game over three years, however, The Sun wrote that EA dubbed those figures inaccurate.

Beckham’s career began with Manchester United, alongside other youngsters such as Paul Scholes. Known for his stunning halfway line goal in the very first match of the 1996/97 season, Beckham blossomed from there. Praised for his signature free kicks and sensational passes, he completed the Premier League with six titles, two FA Cups, and a UEFA Champions League. Beckham then went on to play for Real Madrid in 2003, moving to LA Galaxy in 2007 and ending his career with PSG.
