The World Cup update for FC26 includes the arrival of Mario Kempes, the Valencia CF legend, who will join Pablo Aimar in Ultimate Team. The update promises to revolutionize the Ultimate Team mode with new licenses, daily content, token festivals, special cards, and the highly anticipated incorporation of historical figures. Among the big news that EA Sports is preparing, the return of the Brazilian national team with official license and the presence of Neymar Jr as one of the big promotional claims of the event stand out. Additionally, various filtrations point to the arrival of a special card of Pelé and the incorporation of new historical icons related to the history of the World Cups. Among them are two names that have sparked the enthusiasm of South American fans and, especially, of the valencianistas: Rivellino and Mario Alberto Kempes. Although it is speculated that these icons will not arrive until June 19, the presence of the legendary Argentine striker is already given as a fact within the FC26 community. The possible incorporation of Mario Kempes is a particularly important news for the valencianismo. The historic Argentine striker would become one of the great representatives of Valencia CF within the video game and would allow fans to build a historical duo with Pablo Aimar, included as a hero of the club since last November. Two of the most talented and beloved Argentine footballers who have passed through Mestalla could coincide now in Ultimate Team, a scenario that many fans have been waiting for years. The valencianista community considers that, despite the presence of other former players such as Kluivert or Morientes, few represent as clearly the historical identity of Valencia as Kempes and Aimar. The figure of Mario Alberto Kempes occupies an absolutely privileged place in the history of Valencia CF. “The Matador” arrived at the club in 1976 and quickly became one of the most dominant strikers in European football thanks to his physical power, competitive character, and extraordinary goal-scoring ability. He won two consecutive Trofeos Pichichi as top scorer in LaLiga in the 1976-77 and 1977-78 seasons, which consolidated his status as an international star. His most remembered moment as a valencianista came in the 1979 Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid, where he scored the two goals that gave the title to the blanquinegro team.
