Newcastle United extend partnership with EA Sports

Newcastle United has extended its partnership with EA Sports for a further two years.

The deal will bring a special NUFC version of the FIFA 13 cover, available to download when the game releases on 28th September.

There will also be a Pro Player Tournament at the Magpies’ training ground to find the best FIFA player at the club. My money’s on Demba Ba.

In addition, EA Sports will produce match simulation video content during the season and ask fans to upload their best FIFA goals. There’s even a mention of a fans’ tournament in Shearer’s Bar.

EA Sports’ Head of UK Product Marketing, Dan Holman had this to say:

“We’re delighted to be renewing our partnership with Newcastle United.  We look forward to building on last year’s success by developing a wide range of initiatives that fully engage and excite the supporters throughout the 2012/13 season.”
