Believe it - Ted Lasso on Fifa 23
He’s here, he’s there, he’s every FIFAnwhere. Roy Kent! Roy Kent!
That’s right, Roy Kent and his fun-loving group of teammates on AFC Richmond will be playable in FIFA 23. Because AFC Richmond is in the game, you know you’ll see Ted Lasso patrolling the dugout.
Lasso, who is played by American actor Jason Sudeikis, will appear as a digital model character in the game.
All your favorite characters from the series Ted Lasso are digitally rendered in the trailer. Kent, Isaac McAdoo, Sam Obisanya, Dani Rojas and Jamie Tartt all made appearances in the preview clip. Even Coach Beard is in the game.
AFC Richmond will be usable in Career Mode and in Online Play Modes like Football Ultimate Team, according to IGN. That means you can actually ‘play’ as Lasso if you select his team in Career Mode.
If you haven’t watched Ted Lasso yet, well, you’re missing out. Two seasons of the show have aired on Apple TV and a third should be coming soon. If you’ve watched Ted Lasso and it’s not your cup of tea, you can always choose your favorite club and virtually destroy AFC Richmond in "FIFA 23". It’s not like Lasso is a grand soccer strategist anyway.
