Jude Bellingham's EA Sports FC 25 Ultimate Team card appears to have been leaked online and fans are calling it "overpowered".
Bellingham has been confirmed as the sole cover star for the upcoming game when the Standard Edition is released on September 27.
The image used is the Real Madrid and England sensation's iconic celebration in the El Clasico against Barcelona, while he is also on the artwork for the Ultimate Edition.
Bellingham takes over from former teammate Erling Haaland and unsurprisingly, is set to be one of the highest-rated players on the game.

His card appears to have been leaked, with respected EA FC account @DonkTrading posting Bellingham's stats to 500,000 followers.
After a 23-goal debut season at Real, winning La Liga and the Champions League, Bellingham's rating has been bumped up four marks from 86 to 90.
His pace is also up four to 80, with decent increases also made to his passing and dribbling.

Bellingham's defending has remained the same a year on, but there is one attribute which has seen a monumental improvement.
The 21-year-old's goalscoring feats for Los Blancos and England have resulted in his shooting climbing 12 places from 75 to 87.
It's a substantial bit of growth and fans now think Bellingham will be unplayable on EAFC 25.

One wrote: "OMG! That card is going to be very OP!"
A second said: "Wow this is big upgrade."
A third added: "Now this is called upgrade."
Another commented: "So deserved this card well done Jude."

A final person disagreed, replying: "This is ridiculous. He should be 87 or 88 rated maximum."
Bellingham becomes the latest English player to grace the cover, following on from the likes of Wayne Rooney, Jack Wilshere, Jordan Henderson, Frank Lampard and Theo Walcott.
“I played this game with my brother all the time growing up, and I’ve always thought about how incredible it would be to one day be featured on the cover,” Bellingham said, as per EA Sports.
"There have been so many iconic players on the cover over the years, and I am delighted to be the most recent English player to be bestowed with this honour since 2011. I’m also truly honoured to be featured on the cover of Ultimate Edition with true legends of the game both past and present in Beckham, Bonmatí, Buffon and Zidane.”
