EA Sports have announced a lucrative new partnership with La Liga for the upcoming release of FIFA 19.

The deal means every La Liga club will have their official stadium along with a host of brilliant new player faces from Spain’s top flight.

Well, almost every La Liga club.

Barcelona’s partnership with Konami means Camp Nou will sadly not be in FIFA 19. It will, however, appear exclusively in PES 2019 instead.

EA managed to outbid Konami for the official rights to the Champions League and Europa League for this year’s game, but Barça are still locked into their agreement with the Japanese developer for one more game.

The good news for the rest of Spanish football fans is that the official La Liga TV overlay will again be a feature of FIFA 19, along with the following stadiums …

Estadio Mestalla (Valencia) Estadio ABANCA-Riazor (Deportivo La Coruna) Estadio Benito Villamarin (Real Betis) Estadio La Rosaleda (Malaga) Estadio San Mames (Athletic Bilbao) Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuán (Sevilla) Coliseum Alfonso Perez (Getafe) Estadio de Gran Canaria (UD Las Palmas) Estadio de la Cerámica (Villareal) RCDE Stadium (Espanyol) Estadio de Balaídos (Celta Vigo) Municipal de Ipurua (Eibar) Estadio Ciutat de Valencia (Levante) Estadio de Anoeta (Real Sociedad) Municipal de Butarque (Leganés) Estadio de Mendizorrotza (Alaves) Estadio de Montilivi (Girona) Santiago Bernabeu (Real Madrid) Wanda Metropolitano (Atletico Madrid)

Fans of newly promoted Premier League sides can also rejoice, because Fulham’s Craven Cottage, the Cardiff City Stadium and Wolves’ Molineux are all in the game.

And though worrying recent reports suggest it may not be finished until 2019, Tottenham Hotspur’s new 62,000-seater stadium will also be playable in FIFA 19.

All that’s left for EA to do now is sort out Jesse Lingard’s haircut …
