With the ePremier League finals taking place between 26-27 March, we profile the gamers seeking glory for their clubs.
BURNLEY
NAME: Joshua Blunden
GAMER TAG: Bur_Josh
SOCIAL HANDLE: @_joshhhh9_
CONSOLE: PS5
PLAYER PROFILE: Signed through one of Burnley's scouting tournaments, Josh has been steadily making a name for himself at the club and the young FIFA player is looking to make his mark at his first major live event experience alongside his close friend and team-mate Brad Colston.
Why should people be excited for the ePL?
It's the first in-person event in two years so having all the clubs and all the players in one area competing against one another will create a great atmosphere.
What would it mean to you to win the ePL?
As this is my first ever ePremier League experience, to win the tournament would be a great achievement for me. My team-mate, Brad, is a good friend of mine too so winning it alongside him would be a special feeling.
What formation and style of play do you adopt in-game usually?
The formation I currently use is the 4-1-2-1-2 (narrow), this allows me to play more possession-based football and grind my opponent down, forcing them to drag players out of position which allows me to score goals when needed.

With some great performances recently in EA SPORTS FIFA 22 Global Series competitions, he is one to look out for as a dark horse on the weekend.
Why should people be excited for the ePL?
It's an opportunity to see some of the best FIFA players the UK has to offer.
What would it mean to you to win the ePL?
It would mean a lot to not only me but also Burnley Football Club.
What formation and style of play do you adopt in-game usually?
I use the 4-1-2-1-2 (narrow) formation - it fits my playing style and feels very easy to both attack and defend.
