Juventus will be renamed as "Piedmonte Calcio" in FIFA 20

EA SPORTS has confirmed that June 30th marks the end of its partnership with Juventus. And Juventus will be on FIFA 20 under its unlicensed name "Piedmonte Calcio" after the Serie A champions signed a "long-term" exclusive deal with rivals PES 2020. Konami says the partnership covers exclusive use of the club's name, crest, and official kits as well as its Allianz Stadium.

The end of the partnership between EA SPORTS and Juventus Football Club will have the following effects in FIFA 20 and future FIFA Mobile Seasons:

  • Piemonte Calcio will be a new playable team in FIFA 20 with a custom badge and kit throughout Kick-Off, Career Mode, and EA SPORTS VOLTA Football.
  • Piemonte Calcio will use real-world, authentic players in FIFA 20 and FIFA 20 Ultimate Team.
  • Piemonte Calcio players' Chemistry within FIFA 20 Ultimate Team is unaffected by these changes.

FIFA 20 will feature an extensive collection of clubs and leagues representative of The World's Game when it launches this September.
