At the age of 17, Austrian eFootballer Eldin "Eldos" Todorovac is one of the up-and-coming talents of the German-speaking FIFA esports scene. The Borussia Dortmund player and brand ambassador still considers himself somewhat of a veteran in FIFA, as he told us in an interview.
Eldin "Eldos" Todorovac is one of the hot up-and-coming talents in German esports. Since September 2020, the 17-year-old Austrian has been part of Borussia Dortmund's eFootball team. We spoke to the mega-talent about his journey thus far.
Who Is Eldos?
About a year ago, a young FIFA talent from Austria attracted attention with his achievements. Several German-speaking content creators took notice of the youngster, despite his esports career just kicking off.
Eldos reveals that he is not new to FIFA and is a borderline veteran of the game:
When I was 11-12 years old, I used to watch my older brother play FIFA. It was really exciting and I wanted to play myself. Once my brother stopped playing after FIFA 20, I started playing more and more.
In his childhood, Todorovac and his brother were both active in their local football club, so the connection to FIFA was obvious. Eldin Todorovac speaks of the transition:
I was interested in creating content and streaming from the very beginning. In the process, I developed further in the game. I would say that I have a very natural & genuine enjoyment of it and feel closely connected to my daily tasks.
As his profile grew, clubs also took notice of the mega-talent. Since September 2020, Todorovac has been part of Borussia Dortmund's eFootball team, proving they have a knack for young talent on the virtual pitch as well.
