EA has removed Manchester City left-back Benjamin Mendy from FIFA 22 while the player is awaiting trial.
“As Benjamin Mendy has been removed from the active rosters of both Manchester City and the French National team, in FIFA 22 he has also been removed from respective rosters and suspended from appearing in FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) packs and Ultimate Draft while he is awaiting trial,” EA told Eurogamer.
The publisher confirmed to Eurogamer that the French national team and Manchester City player has been removed from both squads in FIFA 22 and that his card has been pulled from appearing in Ultimate Team packs while he is awaiting trial.
Last month, Manchester City released a statement confirming that Mendy had been suspended by the club pending an investigation.
