Kylian Mbappe, Rodri, Erling Haaland and Aitana Bonmati share the coveted title of being the highest rated players in EA Sports FC 25.

There were also big upgrades for new cover star Jude Bellingham, as well as Vini Jr and Sophia Smith.

Many of these players have been at the top of the game for a while, but there are a few tweaks and surprises. We now have a four-way tie for the world’s best goalkeeper, with Thibaut Courtois’ downgrade leaving him level with Alisson, ter Stegen and Donnarumma.

Because of their absence from the list below, we can also infer that there have been a few downgrades for big-name players - many of them plying their trade in the Saudi Pro League - such as Karim Benzema, Neymar, Robert Lewandowski and Casemiro (EA must have been watching the Liverpool match, then).

On the Women’s side, it looks like Kadidiatou Diani has taken a downgrade from her lofty FC 24 rating, while the recently retired Alex Morgan is also absent from the list.
