EA sports removed famous Dutch soccer player Marco van Basten from FIFA Ultimate Teams in FIFA 20 after the former Dutch national team captain said “Sieg Heil” during a recent video interview.
Van Basten is currently an analyst for Fox Sports and during an interview between Fox Sports and a manager for a German Soccer team, Van Basten can be heard saying “Sieg Heil” as the manager leaves the screen.
He said he was mocking the German accent of the reporter, and Fox Sports has suspended Van Basten for a week following the incident. EA Sports also announced the removal of Van Basten’s likeness from FIFA 20 from an in-game message that pops up when players log in.
