EA Sports have announced who will on the Fifa 16 covers for the North American versions of the game.

They revealed that USA women’s star Alex Morgan will join Lionel Messi on the cover of the regional version of Fifa 16., while in Canada, the regional cover will feature Christine Sinclair, the all-time leading scorer for the Canadian women’s national team.

This means Morgan and Sinclair are set to become the first female players to make the cover of the game since it was created over two decades ago.

The players seemed like an appropriate choice as this will also mark the first installment in the series to feature women’s teams. Twelve of the world’s top women’s national teams will be playable in the game.
