Ravenna FC officially enters the world of EA SPORTS FC.

Ravenna FC makes its debut on EA SPORTS FC: the Giallorossi kit arrives in Football Ultimate Team

Ravenna FC takes a new and significant step in its journey of growth and innovation: for the first time in its history, the Club officially joins EA SPORTS FC through an agreement with Electronic Arts, allowing users worldwide to unlock and use the Giallorossi kit and Club crest within EA SPORTS FC 26 – Football Ultimate Team.

With the latest release of the game, players can unlock the official Ravenna FC kit and crest through a special challenge, taking to the virtual pitch wearing the Giallorossi colors. This milestone marks the Club’s entry into one of the most popular sports entertainment platforms worldwide.

This initiative represents much more than a simple digital presence: it is part of a modern, all-encompassing vision that the Club is pursuing with determination. A forward-looking path that sees technology, innovation, and digital experiences as increasingly central, not only in the Club’s daily operations but also in its relationship with the community.

Since last season, Ravenna FC has launched an internal evolution process involving the sporting sector, introducing advanced tools to support scouting, coaching, and performance activities, based on proprietary artificial intelligence models. This approach reflects the Club’s commitment to adopting contemporary methods and practices, designed to complement on-field work and contribute to the structural growth of the project.
The debut on EA SPORTS FC fits perfectly within this same framework: a natural extension of a strategy aimed at strengthening the Ravenna FC brand identity, expanding its influence beyond national borders, and engaging with an increasingly international, young, and digital audience. It offers a new way to experience the Giallorossi colors, complementing the stadium experience with a virtual one—not replacing it, but enriching it.

In the coming days, the EA SPORTS FC launch will be accompanied by dedicated content and special initiatives, featuring top-level players and a contest that will give fans the chance to win official jerseys signed by the Giallorossi stars.

A further step forward in a clear journey: building a Ravenna FC that is strong on the field, recognizable off the field, and increasingly present in the spaces—both physical and digital—where today the sports experience and sense of community are shaped.
