EA FC 25 ratings: Top 25 highest-rated men revealed

With the worldwide release of EA FC 25 approaching rapidly, EA Sports has released the official list of the top 25 highest-rated men in the game. These are the elite-tier athletes who are regarded as the best in the world in their respective positions, and their ratings will help them be overpowered on the virtual pitch as well.

With Real Madrid being the reigning Champions League and La Liga champions, it comes as no surprise that their players are prominently featured on this list. Their latest star signing Kylian Mbappe is amongst the highest-rated names in the game with an overall rating of 91, retaining his position from the previous title.

These are the 25 highest-rated male players in EA FC 25

Real Madrid and Manchester City are currently considered the two most dominant clubs in European football, and their position in the sport is evident in their EA FC 25 ratings as well. Not only does the latter have more players in the top 25, they also have two 91-rated players in the upcoming title, with Erling Haaland and Rodri joining Kylian Mbappe at the top of the roster.

With Jude Bellingham being the cover star of EA FC 25 after his stunning debut season for Los Blancos, his +4 overall upgrade seems warranted. The English superstar has an overall rating of 90 in the latest title, similar to his teammate Vinicius Junior, who has also earned a +1 upgrade from last year.

These are the highest-rated men in-game:

Player Name	Club	Overall rating
Kylian Mbappe	Real Madrid	91
Rodri	Manchester City	91
Erling Haaland	Manchester City	91
Jude Bellingham	Real Madrid	90
Vinicius Junior	Real Madrid	90
Kevin de Bruyne	Manchester City	90
Harry Kane	Bayern Munich	90
Martin Odegaard	Arsenal	89
Gianluigi Donnarumma	PSG	89
Alisson	Liverpool	89
Thibaut Courtois	Real Madrid	89
Lautaro Martinez	Inter	89
Virgil van Dijk	Liverpool	89
Marc-Andre ter Stegen	FC Barcelona	89
Mohamed Salah	Liverpool	89
Phil Foden	Manchester City	88
Lionel Messi	Inter Miami	88
Antoine Griezmann	Atletico Madrid	88
Ruben Dias	Manchester City	88
Robert Lewandowski	FC Barcelona	88
Federico Valverde	Real Madrid	88
Ederson	Manchester City	88
Bernardo Silva	Manchester City	88
Jan Oblak	Atletico Madrid	88
Antonio Rudiger	Real Madrid	88

The most notable upgrades have been awarded to the likes of Jude Bellingham (+4), Phil Foden (+3) and Antonio Rudiger (+3). Lautaro Martinez (+2) has also earned a well-deserved upgrade after his golden boot-winning efforts in both the Serie A and COPA America competitions. Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard (+2) has also continued his trend of receiving consistent upgrades over the years.

Amongst the downgraded players, Lionel Messi (-2) and Robert Lewandowski (-2) have been affected the most. Both players were 90-rated in the previous title, but have an overall rating of 88 in EA FC 25. While this is not indicative of how effective they will be on the virtual pitch, their decline with age is apparent in the overall ratings in-game.

The likes of Kevin de Bruyne (-1), Thibaut Courtois (-1), and Ruben Dias (-1) have also received lower ratings compared to EA FC 24, but their downgrades can be attributed to them missing most of last season due to injuries.
