FIFPlay, a popular FIFA fan site has been conducting a poll on which leagues the fans want to be included in FIFA 21.
The Indian Super League and the Finnish Veikkausliga are the two most wanted leagues by the fans.

This poll result may not have any effect on EA’s decision of including new leagues in FIFA 21, but this will clearly show how much the fans want ISL in the game.
