What About Other Teams?

While Liga MX’s return is promising, not every team or nation will make it into EA FC 26. Licensing issues are expected to continue with:

Brazil (unlicensed since FIFA 23)

AC Milan and Inter Milan (still exclusive to FC 26 Coins eFootball)

Some national teams like Turkey, China, and Australia

After a three-year absence, Liga MX seems poised to make its grand return in EA Sports FC 26. Though not officially confirmed yet, the signs are promising — and the timing couldn’t be better.

Whether you're a die-hard Club América supporter or just want to explore new leagues in Career Mode, the return of Mexican football could make EA FC 26 the most complete edition yet.
