One year after joining forces on EA SPORTS FC, Team Vitality and Paris Saint-Germain Esports continue to pursue their shared goal of building one of the most competitive sporting projects in the discipline.
A strengthened team, driven by sporting excellence
For this new EA SPORTS FC 27 season, PSG.Vitality is proud to welcome Levi de Weerd and Lucio “HHezerS” Vecchione. Their recruitment is no coincidence: it reflects Paris Saint-Germain and Team Vitality’s determination to bring together the best talent in support of an increasingly ambitious sporting project.
With these two new signings, PSG.Vitality takes another step forward in building its roster. Their complementary profiles and experience at the highest level will strengthen a team determined to compete at the forefront of all the season’s major competitions, from e-Ligue 1 and the FC Pro Open to the eChampions League and the Esports World Cup.
The roster in detail:
Levi de Weerd – Netherlands – 22 years old: Having joined Team Gullit at the age of 15, Levi de Weerd quickly established himself as one of the leading Dutch players on the EA FC scene. He then joined Ajax Esports in 2022 to compete in the eDivisie, while continuing to represent Team Gullit on the international stage. Following Team Liquid’s acquisition of Team Gullit in 2025, Levi continued his career under the organisation’s colours.
A three-time Dutch champion with three eDivisie titles (2021-2022, 2022-2023 and 2023-2024), he has also distinguished himself at the highest international level, finishing third at the FC Pro Open in both 2025 and 2026, as well as third at the FC Pro World Championship in 2025. He also reached the eLigue 1 final in 2026 with ESTAC.
Lucio “HHezerS” Vecchione – Italy – 26 years old: A former Ninjas in Pyjamas player, Lucio has established himself as one of the leading names on the Italian scene, notably winning the Italian championship in 2024 and claiming a European championship title. Over the past several seasons, he has consistently performed at the highest international level, reaching the eChampions League final in 2026 after finishing runner-up in 2023, as well as securing two Top 8 finishes in major competitions this season: the FC Pro 26 Open and the FC Pro 26 World Championship.
Johann “ManiiKa” Simon (33 years old): A legendary former player on the EA FC scene and a former Paris Saint-Germain Esports player, he will continue with PSG.Vitality for another season, bringing his expertise as the team’s manager and coach. Drawing on his experience both as a player and a coach, he will play a key role in helping this roster reach its full potential.
New kit: the rouge & bleu colours on the esports stage
For the new season, PSG.Vitality players will wear Paris Saint-Germain’s 2026-2027 home kit, complemented by the PSG.Vitality badge. As last season, the roster will compete in the same colours as the Club’s other sporting teams, symbolising its full place within Paris Saint-Germain’s sporting identity and the shared standards of excellence embraced by its athletes, whatever their discipline.
Unveiled last May and already embraced by supporters, the kit reconnects with the Club’s historic codes: a royal blue base combined with a wide central red stripe framed by fine white lines, extending all the way down the back.
A new chapter begins
Following their first year of collaboration, Team Vitality and Paris Saint-Germain Esports remain committed to their roadmap: strengthening their positioning as premium brands on the global stage and establishing PSG.Vitality as a benchmark beyond the French championship.
Beyond competition, the two international organisations will continue to bring their collaboration to life throughout the year through exclusive collections and unique activations for fans.
After a first year that allowed us to lay the foundations for PSG.Vitality, this new season marks an important step in our development. The arrival of Levi de Weerd and HHezerS opens our project to international talent for the first time and reflects our determination to grow PSG.Vitality’s reach well beyond the French scene. Together, we want to compete at the highest level, both in France and across the world’s biggest international competitions, and establish PSG.Vitality as a leading global esports brand
As with every discipline in which Paris Saint-Germain competes, our ambition is to build highly competitive teams capable of challenging for the biggest titles. This same ambition guides our esports project with Team Vitality. By bringing in players who rank among the top performers on the EA FC scene, we are giving ourselves the means to compete with the very best teams and continue writing the story of PSG.Vitality. This new season marks an important step in the development of our shared project
