Prince became the first player to be resigned virtually. He was a promising young player at QPR when at the age of just 15 he was killed after being stabbed while trying to break up a fight at his school.
It's been gathered that Prince will also be listed as a squad member on all matchday programmes while being given the No 30 shirt after being re-signed.
Prince's new virtual character will also be seen by the public on some of the country's most iconic billboards such as Piccadilly Circus and Oxford Street as part of an advertising campaign by JD Sports, while he will now also feature as a special edition card in the Topps' Match Attax card game.
