FIFA 18 5 fastest La Liga players: 3 Barcelona players in list but Real Madrid's Gareth Bale still beats them all

FIFA 18 is going to launch on September 29, 2017, and the fans can’t seem to wait to live the football fantasy. If you play FIFA, you know having a fast sprinter on your team who cuts through the wing can make all the difference. It is interesting to see that the fastest 20 players in FIFA have five players from the Premier League and five from La Liga.

The hub of excellent football that Spain has become, is reflected in the fact that football there has become the No. 1 celebrated sport. No doubt, the Spaniards have stepped up time and again, to challenge English football, if not take over it.

Let’s have a look at FIFA 18's five fastest players of La Liga Santander.

#5 Nelson Semedo

Semedo, the Portuguese right-back, has earned the spotlight for his decent speed. His pace is rated 92 in FIFA 18, as compared to an 89 in the previous year. His overall rating has also climbed a few points to 81. The Barcelona newcomer is deadly for the opponents and you need to watch out for him.

#4 Gerard Deulofeu

Gerard Deulofeu is a Spanish footballer who plays for FC Barcelona and the Spain national team. Primarily a forward, Deulofeu also plays as a right wing. He is another newcomer in Barcelona, and he is even faster than Semedo. FIFA 18 upped Deulofeu’s pace to 93, from an earlier 91 in FIFA 17, and his overall got upgraded to 82 from 81.

#3 Inaki Williams

Inaki Williams is a Spanish international who plays as a forward in Atletico Bilbao. His pace increased from 92 to 93 this season, and his overall climbed up a point at 81, making him the third fastest in La Liga, just above Deulofeu. Williams has really grown in his speed and attack since truly announcing himself last year.

#2 Jordi Alba

Another one from Barcelona. Although he lost a point in his overall and came down to 85, the Spanish defender has stuck to his speed at 93. The left-back has a sturdy future in Barcelona, not because his substitute is Digne, but because Alba fills the defensive gaps quickly. Truly, he is an indispensable player to have on your side in FIFA 18.

#1 Gareth Bale

Everybody knows the Welsh footballer, who is also a star winger in the top class Spanish football club, Real Madrid. Bale has no match in La Liga when he paces down the wing, and he is pretty decisive with the ball too. Be it trapping huge crosses, or throwing the ball for a header in the box, Bale aces it all. The star player's pace rating is at 94, and he is not going to slow down anytime soon.
