Mason Greenwood will feature in EA Sports FC 24, EA has confirmed.
Greenwood, who currently plays for Getafe FC, was removed from FIFA 22 and then absent from FIFA 23 following his arrest in January 2022.
Greenwood was charged with attempted rape, engaging in controlling and coercive behavior, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. These charges were later dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service.
“EA Sports FC 24 authentically reflects the active rosters of teams and clubs in the real world of football,” an EA Sports spokesperson told Mirror Gaming.
“As he is now part of an active roster with Getafe CF, Mason Greenwood will be included in FC 24. As Greenwood was not part of an active roster at the time of our cut-off date for final team and player data, he will not appear in Ultimate Team at launch.”
Greenwood, who rose to fame at Manchester United, was loaned to Getafe in September. Since his arrival in Spain, he has yet to play a match, but he has been regularly featured as part of promotional material from Getafe.
EA Sports FC will be released on September 29, 2023, but early access will be available through the Ultimate Edition starting on September 22.
The game will be available for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch.
