We now know who the top 24 players will be in EA Sports FC 24, as Haaland shares the top spot while several greats are left out.
EA has kept football fans in the dark about the player ratings for EA Sports FC 24, right up until only a couple of weeks from release day.
Unproven leaks have circulated on social media for a while but the annual revelation, the first since EA stopped making FIFA games, is finally here.
The best rated players have earned a 91 total rating, just like FIFA 23. This accolade is given to four players, including Erling Haaland (to no one’s surprise), as well as Kylian Mbappé, Kevin De Bruyne, and Alexia Putellas.
Lionel Messi and Karim Benzema’s ratings have dropped by one from FIFA 23, slipping down to 90. Harry Kane’s rating was boosted by 1 and is now also at 90.
EA Sports FC 24’s best goalkeeper will be Thibaut Courtois at 90, while the bragging rights for best defender will be shared between Rúben Dias, Mapi León, and Virgil van Dijk.

Pace is perhaps the most overpowered ability in FIFA and, just like FIFA 23, the quickest player in EA Sports FC is Kylian Mbappé, who has a speedy 97 rating for pace. The best shooters are Haaland and Harry Kane, both at 93.
Some top players didn’t make the cut, like Son Heung-Min, Luka Modric, Joshua Kimmich, Jan Oblak, Ederson, Jude Bellingham, and five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo.
Unlike FIFA, EA Sports FC 24 will add female players to their Ultimate Team mode for the first time.
You can now look forward to unpacking the best from the woman’s side of the game too. Eight of the top 24 players are woman. Among them are Putellas’ Barcelona teammate Aitana Bonmatí rated at 90, as is Chelsea superstar Sam Kerr.
The odd number of players released in this batch (24) may suggest that EA are purposefully revealing all players rated 89 or above now, and players rated 88 and below will be next.
Either way, more ratings are expected to be released in the days to come.
