Johan Cruyff made his professional debut in Holland in 1964. He went on to play for club teams around the world, including in Spain and the United States, winning a long list of titles, including the Ballon d’Or in 1971, 1973 and 1974. Cruyff was also an iconic part of the Dutch national team and was the most famous exponent of total football, a style of play credited with laying the foundations of modern football.
Cruyff’s incredible technique shocked the football world and is still celebrated today, with the famous ‘Cruyff Turn’ a hugely popular move in the PES series. Fans will now be able to recreate the technique in PROFESSIONAL SOCCER EVOLUTION 2018.
After his retirement, Cruyff won four consecutive league titles as coach of FC Barcelona, and his legendary exploits continued long after his playing career ended. Jordi Cruyff, Johan Cruyff’s son, said: “I am proud that my father is returning to the pitch with Pro Evolution Soccer, and I hope we can enjoy his performances in the game as much as so many people did on the pitch.”
Starting today, Johan Cruyff will also appear as the icon and key visual of the mobile game PES CLUB MANAGER which will be marked by a special event.
Players can expect to play as Cruyff as he appears in the console and mobile versions of PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER 2018 Soon.
Get ready to enjoy the dream showdown between today’s superstars and an all-time legend.
