Electronic Arts has officially announced that US Men's National Team Captain and Seattle Sounders FC midfielder, Clint Dempsey, will appear on the North American cover of FIFA 15. You can check out the cover image below.

Dempsey will share the cover image with Lionel Messi. The reveal was made before yesterday's Sounders FC vs. Tottenham Hotspur game. This will be the first time an American has appeared on the game's cover since 2011.

Stuart Lang, VP of North American Marketing at EA, stated on the announcement: "Clint Dempsey is a world class athlete that embodies the heart and soul of the sport. He showed his lethal combination of grace and toughness at the World Cup, and plays with enormous heart and determination on the pitch. He is the perfect ambassador for FIFA 15, a game that's all about bringing the emotion and intensity of the sport to life."

Dempsey added: "It's an amazing opportunity in my career to be on the cover for FIFA 15, a game that has played a big role in growing the popularity of the sport in America. To join the class of other elite athletes who have appeared on previous covers is very humbling and I am extremely grateful for this honor."

FIFA 15 will be available in September for the Xbox One, PS4, and Windows PC in September. A version will be released on Xbox 360, PS3, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and PS Vita in the fall.

No way in hell is he wearing that on the PS4 version
