Look Sports Media – EA Sports has dropped the bombshell: the official player ratings for EA FC 26 Ultimate Team are here, and the footballing world is buzzing. Kylian Mbappé and Mohamed Salah share the throne as the highest-rated male players, both boasting a 91 overall rating. Mbappé, revealed first, also boasts a blistering 97 pace stat. This confirms earlier leaks, at least for the top spots.
The goalkeeper battle sees Thibaut Courtois, Alisson Becker, and Gianluigi Donnarumma all vying for the top spot with an 89 overall rating. A five-way tie at 90 overall follows, sparking immediate controversy. Ousmane Dembélé, Rodri, Virgil van Dijk, Erling Haaland, and Jude Bellingham all share the coveted rating. Rodri’s inclusion, despite a season-long absence from the pitch for some time, has raised eyebrows, while Barcelona fans are fuming that Bellingham, the game’s cover star, is rated higher than their midfield maestro Pedri (89).
However, there’s good news for Barcelona supporters: Lamine Yamal receives a massive upgrade, jumping from an 81 in EA FC 25 to a stunning 89 in FC 26. This 18-year-old phenom’s rise is remarkable, surpassing even Messi’s rating at the same age in FIFA 06 (78). Meanwhile, Harry Kane’s downgrade from 90 to 89, despite a prolific season, has ignited a firestorm of debate, though he does hold the highest shooting stat (92).
