Mohammed Kudus' distinctive celebration is slated to feature in EA Sports FC 25.

Since the commencement of the 2023/24 season, the 23-year-old's celebratory act of perching on the advertising boards has garnered worldwide attention.

Kudus first showcased this celebration after netting a remarkable goal against Arsenal in the Carabao Cup.

Footballers like Leicester City's Stephy Mavididi, Alexander Garnacho, Tracey Twum of the Black Princesses, and youth players from West Ham and Ajax have replicated the gesture.

Speaking candidly to EA uncut, Kudus disclosed that he adopted this celebration to stand out.

"Nah, there's no really, like, deeper meaning to it. I just thought about it as doing something different. A lot of people celebrate with knee slides and all kinds of celebrations, but I just thought about doing something different. And then. Yeah, Glad it's making the waves and other people, too, are doing it," he stated.

Kudus simply wanted to offer a fresh take on celebrations beyond the typical knee slides and other conventional gestures.

He encouraged everyone to give the celebration a try, welcoming them to join in and create a sense of unity within the football community.

Following his stunning solo goal against Freiburg in the Europa League round of 16, Kudus introduced a new variation of the celebration by sitting on the steward's stool.

During the conversation with EA uncut, the interviewers assured Kudus that they would reach out to FC 24 to ensure his signature celebration is included in FC 25.
