Anyway, Borussia Dortmund star Reus has beaten the likes of Anthony Martial, Eden Hazard and James Rodriguez to the accolade ahead of the game’s launch in September.

Reus wasn’t in the Germany team that played in the recent Euro 2016 tourney due to injury, but that didn’t stop fans from voting him into the series’ pantheon of stars.

None more so than who has the privilege of being the cover star.

“Most of all I am humbled that the fans have chosen me, and I will strive to make them proud with my performance on the pitch”. Remember that the vote was open to everyone worldwide, so it means that Reus and Rodriguez will still have a good chance of being the victor, not just the two Premier League based players. EA Sports FIFA 17 is developed by EA Vancouver and will be available in North America on September 27 and worldwide on September 29 on Origin for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
