#5 David Silva (89)

The Spaniard is officially the fifth highest rated midfielder in FIFA 19 and twenty fourth in overall. David Silva won the league with Manchester City and had a very busy season. His son was born prematurely and was admitted to a hospital in Spain due to which Silva had to travel back and forth between Spain and England. Still, his contribution to the team was invaluable and EA Sports definitely recognized that. Silva is a tough player and a nightmare for the opposition when placed with the likes of De Bruyne, Sane and Aguero.

Silva appeared 29 times for the champions in the Premier League in which he scored 9 goals and provided 11 assists. Silva also earned his position in Spain's starting eleven at the 2018 Word Cup held at Russia.

#4 N'Golo Kante (89)

The French World Cup champion is a true genius and a master among the defensive midfielders. Kante's ability to read the game and intercept long passes is unmatched. The Frenchman was a top target for PSG this summer but The Blues didn't allow him to leave neither did he want to. Kante is adding massive trophies like Premier League and World Cup to his portfolio since first emerging from the surprising Leicester City. Chelsea has also equipped the likes of Mateo Kovacic and Jorginho to play alongside their star midfielder.

Kante has won two Premier league titles already and was the player of the year for the 2016-17 season. Kante has made 425 successful tackles with a percentage of sixty-eight and made 327 interceptions in total. He was also crowned with World Cup glory early in this year.

#3 Toni Kroos (90)

Also known as 'The Sniper', Kroos has the ability to drop successful long balls wherever he wants. He is as deadly in Germany as he is Real Madrid. His long shots, set pieces, and long balls are worth watching again. Kroos is Germany coach's main man and also captained his side quite a few times. Alongside the likes of Luca Modric and Isco in the Real Madrid lineup, Kroos delivers thriving performances which FIFA surely took into consideration before launching their new game.

Kroos appeared 27 times in last season's LaLiga and scored 5 goals and also provided 7 assists. He had a good overall season but he got to face an upset in the World Cup where Germany got knocked out in group stages.

#2 Kevin De Bruyne (91)

The Belgian midfielder had a massive season with champions Manchester City. De Bruyne is always the manager's main man be it in the national squad or with Premier League giants. His long balls and long shots give him extra strength over others. When paired with the likes of David Silva and Leroy Sane, De Bruyne functions best and delivers whenever the team is in need. De Bruyne is also known for his occasional tackles around the centre circle. The Belgian also got till the semifinals in the World Cup held at Russia.

The Manchester City man appeared 37 times for the club in the Premier League in which he scored 8 goals and provided 16 assists. De Bruyne is also known for his strength in the midfielder and deadly crosses inside the box.

#1 Luka Modric

The Croatian genius broke the Ronaldo-Messi legacy by winning the UEFA's best player in Europe award two weeks ago. The Croatian is known for his tactical genius, dribbling, long shots and key passes which he provides from the core of the midfield. Luka Modric is the heart of the club at Madrid and when paired alongside Toni Kroos, they serve as the world's best midfield duo. Modric unexpectedly made it to the World Cup finals and also won the golden ball award in the World Cup 2018 held at Russia.

Modric played 26 games in last season's LaLiga in which he scored a goal and also provided 6 assists. The Croatian is widely known for his tactics in the midfield and is also tipped by many pundits to win this year's Ballon D' or.
