The third installment of the EA SPORTS BIGTM street soccer arcade series will have not one, but three players gracing the cover:

Electronic Arts Inc. announced today that international soccer superstars Ronaldinho, Peter Crouch, and Gennaro Gattuso will be featured world wide on the front packs of FIFA Street 3, the newest iteration of the EA SPORTS BIGTM street soccer arcade series.

Ronaldinho, the cover athlete on the original FIFA Street, is a global megastar and the Brazilian International and FC Barcelona midfielders list of accomplishments includes a FIFA World Cup winners medal, the 2004 and 2005 FIFA World Player of the Year, as well as the 2005 European Footballer of the Year award.

Joining Ronaldinho will be Italian World Cup-winning footballer Gennaro Gattuso. The creative midfielder, who plays for A.C. Milan, with whom he won the UEFA Champions League title in the 2002-03 and 2006-07 seasons, continues the tradition of world-class athletes donning the FIFA franchise covers. It is Gattusos first appearance on an EA SPORTS or EA SPORTS BIG cover.

Completing the trio of world class players will be Liverpool and England striker Peter Crouch. Liverpools top goal scorer in the 2006-07 season, Crouch has also been a consistent goal scorer for the England national team. He will have his 67 height amplified to compliment his ball-striking and finishing skills to create a new soccer experience.
