Classic Kits for Hero Players Lack Logos & Details in EA Sports FC 25 Due to Missing Licenses
EA could not secure the licenses for many of the original teams and all of their classic kits. As a result, the kits featured in the game are simplified versions of the originals, missing key details such as brand logos, intricate designs, and, in many cases, even the team crests.

We have put some of the original and stripped-down kits next together. Some are easy to recognize at first glance, e.g., Leverkusen and Chelsea), while others seem not to be based on an exact classic kit (e.g., Yaya Toure and Man City).
