Each version is taken from the individual league Team of the Season squads, which means they are among the highest rated players in the game.

Premier League champions Chelsea are represented by Eden Hazard and N'Golo Kante, while Golden Boot winner and runner-up Harry Kane and Romelu Lukaku are also included.

After winning La Liga and the Champions League, Real Madrid have four players included, with Ronaldo, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos and Toni Kroos all selected in the overall squad.

However, EA have not settled the debate as to whether Ronaldo or Messi is currently the world's best player, giving them both the maximum 99 rating.

The team will be available in packs from Friday, June 23 at 1800 BST to June 30.
