FIFA 18: 10 Rumours You Need To Know

7. The Chinese Super League Is Included?

Contrasting reports alert. The Sun are reporting that the Chinese Super League has been "officially announced" for FIFA 18, which totally flies in the face of Sam Rivera's comments to a FOX outlet in Italy that the cash rich division didn't make EA's cut in the end.

Which one is the real story? Will the CSL be in FIFA 18 or not? Right now, things are a bit unclear, but we'd be tempted to side with Rivera (y'know, an actual producer who worked on FIFA) than anyone else. Still, it's interesting that national newspapers are announcing the Super League as being part of the set-up.

Was Rivera mis-quoted? Did he intentionally pull the wool over everyone's eyes in an attempt to throw them off the scent? The Chinese Super League is one of the most newsworthy leagues in world football just now, so it'd make sense to see it included.

Besides, we want to sell Kyle Walker on for £100 million to Shanghai Shenhua.
