    I doubt adding a license surcharge to the game would even come close to paying the amount of money that some of the major licenses require.  As mentioned previously, EA balked at the charge for using Juventus's name, and they're raking in millions a day from microtransactions.  If they're not willing to touch it, the amounts must've been prohibitive.  

    EA didn't "balk" at the charge. What happened was their exclusive licensing deal ended and Konami came forward with a better offer. Don't forget that Konami dropped a massive license (UEFA competitions) to be able to afford these exclusive partnerships.

    I'm not sure why there was a change in terms of FM of the naming deal, given that it wasn't a problem in the past for them to use the name Juventus, whereas PES and FIFA both were unable to.
