Professional footballers have shown over time that they are very interested in their video game characters.
Inter Milan forward, Romelu Lukaku, famously challenged EA Sports to increase his rating in FIFA 19.
Newcastle United’s star winger, Allan Saint Maximin is the latest to publicly react to his character on EA Sports FIFA franchise.
The Frenchman reacted hilariously to what seems like his character on the beta version of EA Sports’ upcoming FIFA 21 video game.
