Los Angeles Galaxy star Landon Donovan has been chosen for the cover of FIFA Soccer 11, Electronic Arts announced this week. The 28-year-old American soccer hero will join Real Madrid's Kaka and Arsenal's Carlos Vela on the box art of FIFA Soccer 11 in the United States and Canada when it arrives in retail stores September 28. The game is launching simultaneously for all platforms, which of course means PS3, 360, Wii, and PSP versions.

Donovan started for the U.S. Men's National Team at the World Cup in South Africa, scoring three goals in four matches, including a thrilling injury time goal in a 1-0 win over Algeria, leading the USA to win their group for the first time since 1930. Donovan also enjoyed an outstanding 2009 season, winning the Most Valuable Player award for the first time and MLS Goal of the Year 2009 while leading the Galaxy to the MLS Cup. This season Donovan has scored 5 goals and 11 assists in 13 games for LA.

Donovan was also on the cover of FIFA 2003 and FIFA 07 in North America. This is the first appearance for Kaka and Vela.

Vela, an attacking forward, played on Mexico's national team that advanced to the round of 16 at the World Cup. He scored two goals and two assists in 20 appearances last season with Arsenal. Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite, or better known as Kaka, is one of the finest football players of this generation, having won the Golden Ball and FIFA World Player of the Year awards in 2007. During the 2009-2010 season, Kaka scored 8 goals in 22 appearances for Real Madrid.

FIFA 11 arrives on the Sony PSP handheld this September 28 in North America.
