EA has confirmed that former Liverpool goalkeeper and Istanbul hero Jerzey Dudek will be available as a playable FUT Heroes player item in FIFA 22.
Ahead of FIFA 22's official worldwide launch on October 1st, 2021, EA has confirmed that FUT Heroes will be coming to FUT 22, with the likes of Tim Cahill, Robbie Keane and now former Reds goalkeeper Dudek being available as a playable item in-game.
FIFA players will be able to place Dudek into their FIFA 22 Ultimate Team squads, with the Pole being able to gain a chemistry link with any Premier League player or Polish player in the user's squad.
You'll be able to green link Dudek's FUT Heroes item with any Liverpool players, allowing you to play the former Reds' goalkeeper alongside Virgil Van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Trent Alexander-Arnold and others on FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.
Former Everton midfielder Tim Cahill and ex-Liverpool striker Robbie Keane are two other Premier League FUT Heroes items that have been confirmed so far.
The addition of Dudek comes after EA also announced that former Arsenal winger and manager, Freddie Ljungberg, will be added into FIFA 22 as a FUT Heroes card as well.
So what about his stats?
EA has confirmed that Dudek will have an overall rating of 86, matching Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's FUT Heroes player item overall rating, whilst his in-game statistics remain unknown.
EA has now announced seventeen FUT Heroes cards in total, with more to be revealed throughout August and September as we get closer to the game launch date.
The full list of FUT Heroes so far is as followed:
- Tim Cahill
- Mario Gomez
- Clint Dempsey
- Jorge Campos
- Diego Milito
- Sami Al-Jaber
- Fernando Morientes
- Abedi Pele
- Robbie Keane
- Lars Ricken
- Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
- Antonio Di Natale
- Ivan Cordoba
- Freddie Ljungberg
- Jurgen Kohler
- Aleksandr Mostovoi
- Jerzey Dudek
FUT Heroes are a brand new addition for FIFA 22 and will help you build more varied squads in FIFA Ultimate Team.
Each FUT Heroes card is assigned to a league, so will have a strong chemistry link with all other players from that league.
The nationality of the FUT Heroes will also give chemistry boosts, in the same way that all other cards in FIFA Ultimate Team have a weak link with other players of the same nationality.
This makes them different to the current Icon cards available in-game which can be used in any squad and gain a chemistry link to the players around them.
FIFA 22 will be released on all platforms on October 1st, 2021.
