In an official news release, EA said Lasso — famously played by Jason Sudekis — will be a playable manager in Career Mode on FIFA ’23.
In addition to Lasso, FIFA players can manage AFC Richmond — Lasso’s team in the hit show — in FIFA’s Premier League or any other playable Career Mode.
The Emmy award-winning show follows the story of Lasso, an American football coach in London charged with leading a struggling English Premier League football (soccer) team.
According to IMDB, the comedy-drama won 11 Primetime Emmys and received 40 total nominations.
