FIFA 17 cover vote: Anthony Martial, Eden Hazard, James, Marco Reus

Fans will be able to vote for their choice of four players to grace the cover of EA Sports' FIFA 17 video game.

The candidates for the FIFA 17 Global Cover Vote are Real Madrid's James Rodriguez, Manchester United's Anthony Martial, Chelsea's Eden Hazard and Borussia Dortmund's Marco Reus.

Voting on the EA Sports website lasts until the morning of July 20, with the winner to be announced later this month.

EA Sports says all four contenders are global ambassadors for the game and worked with the developers "to influence gameplay and bring innovation to the way players think and move, physically interact with opponents, take set pieces, and use new techniques in attack."

"James, Martial, Hazard, and Reus represent exciting, attacking football and epitomize the innovative play that fans can expect in FIFA 17," EA senior producer Nick Channon said. "We're excited to see fans rally around their favorite players and see who they select as the cover star for the franchise, and the footballer who will represent FIFA 17 globally."

FIFA 17 is scheduled to be released in North America on Sept. 27 and worldwide on Sept. 29 on PC, Xbox and PlayStation.
