The most recent Icon SBC is now accessible in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, with Philipp Lahm’s base version available for acquisition. This German legend, who used to play for Bayern Munich, is considered one of the most technically skilled and versatile defenders of his era, and his in-game abilities accurately represent his peak career capabilities.
The leak of this SBC was previously revealed on social media, creating excitement among gamers who were eager to unlock Lahm and include him in their Ultimate Team squads. EA Sports didn’t disappoint, promptly releasing the SBC on the same day the leak surfaced.
The Icon roster in EA FC 24 has been completely revamped, with legendary players now having only one version each, instead of the three versions that depicted various stages of their careers.
