GridGames.ID – Zlatan Ibrahimovic has accused FIFA 21 of having removed his name and face without permission.
He also scuffled on Twitter and expressed his anger through the @Ibra_official account, on Tuesday (24/11).
The AC Milan mainstay striker questioned who gave EA Sports permission to use his name and face on FIFA 21.
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– Zlatan Ibrahimović (@Ibra_official) November 23, 2021

Ibra suspects that there are parties who want to take advantage of his popularity for personal gain.
The Swedish national then demanded an immediate investigation.
Somebody is making profit on my name and face without any agreement all these years.
Time to investigate– Zlatan Ibrahimović (@Ibra_official) November 23, 2021

Ibra’s tweet received a response from fellow footballer Gareth Bale.

Knowing this, EA Sports as a game developer gave their response.
Quoted from SPORTbible, EA Sports claims to have collaborated with the association of professional football players, FIFPro regarding player licenses in the FIFA 21 game.
FIFPro itself consists of countries that are members of FIFA.
Ibrahimovic is of course a part of FIFPro because the country he is from, Sweden is a member.

The polemic of names and pictures of soccer players in video games has been a debate that has not ended for a long time.
The same thing was done by one of the German goalkeepers in 2003, as quoted from The Athletic.
Until now, there is no midpoint that can solve the grayish rule.
Could Ibrahimovic’s tweets serve as a trigger for more serious discussion? Or will it just be the wind then?
