for the first time in the history of the series, the star on the cover of fifa 17 could be finally chosen by the fans, thanks to an unofficial vote promoted by fifplay.

until now, in fact, players were able to express their preference on the only player in the background (different in each country), while the main character is always selected from electronic arts team.

for now it was collected approximately 25,000 votes, from which emerged 34 names. here is the current top 10 ranking:

who should be fifa 17 cover star

1. cristiano ronaldo (17%, 4,447 votes)

2. lionel messi (16%, 4,155 votes)

3. neymar jr. (9%, 2345 votes)

4. james rodriguez (8%, 1,992 votes)

5. arda turan (7%, 1733 votes)

6. manuel neuer (6%, 1,497 votes)

7. thomas müller (6%, 1,408 votes)

8. sergio agüero (4%, 1,065 votes)

9. robert lewandowski (4%, 1,015 votes)

10. zlatan ibrahimović (3%, 890 votes)

unsurprisingly cristiano ronaldo and lionel messi are ranking on the top, but ronaldo is the one currently edging the top spot by less than 100 votes. the top four players are all plying their trade in the spanish la liga for either barcelona or real madrid. lionel messi is on the cover of fifa 16, and cristiano ronaldo has advertised pro evolution soccer in the past as well, but wales and real madrid star gareth bale will feature on the front of uefa euro 2016, the add-on to fifa 16 releasing in conjunction with the tournament this summer.
