It’s officially FC 25 month and what better way to start than with our Top 100 ratings prediction. There won’t be too much change from last year with the list of players, but there are plenty of upgrades and downgrades you want to keep an eye on. We won’t bore you and go into depth with each individual player but will highlight some of our standout choices through the Top 100!
100th - Jack Grealish
Super Jack Grealish kicks off our Top 100 after a decent season. He stays an 85 and we expect that to be the cut off for anyone inside the Top 100. He’s recently been added back to the England squad under new boss Lee Carsley, could this be the start of a comeback for Jack?
99th - Khvicha Kvaratskhelia
98th - Christopher Nkunku
97th - Lois Openda
96th - Manuel Neuer
95th - Matthijs de Ligt
94th - Frenkie de Jong
93rd - Jeremie Frimpong
92nd - Alex Grimaldo
91st - Pedri
90th - Ronald Araujo
89th - Eder Militao
88th - Theo Hernandez
87th - Rafael Leao
86th - Antonio Rudiger
85th - Emi Martinez
84th - Cristiano Ronaldo
Keeping his place in the Top 100 is Cristiano Ronaldo. Yes he may have scored plenty of goals last season but so did Alexander Mitrovic and he’s not even close to this list. We’ve kept him at 86 and as usual we’ll be expecting plenty of special cards for CR7, probably one within the first couple of weeks.
83th - Ousmane Dembele
82nd - Riyad Mahrez
81st - Joao Cancelo
80th - Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
79th - Marquinhos
78th - Lucy Bronze
77th - Ashley Lawrence
76th - Lauren James
75th - Kim Little
74th - Gabriel
73rd - William Saliba
William Saliba receives a very nice upgrade heading into FC 25 after another season as one of the Premier League’s best defenders. We’ve predicted both him and Gabriel to make the jump to 86 an will create a formidable partnership in next years game.
72nd - John Stones
71st - Vivianne Miedema
70th - Rodrygo
69th - Casemiro
68th - Rose Lavelle
67th - Mallory Swanson
66th - Jamal Musiala
65th - Florian Wirtz
64th - Marc Andre Ter Stegen
63rd - Gregor Kobel
62nd - Luka Modric
61st - Victor Osimhen
60th - Karim Benzema
59th - Paulo Dybala
58th - Beth Mean
57th - Mike Maignan
56th - Alexandra Popp
55th - Hakan Calhanoglu
54th - Fridolina Rolfo
53rd - Ilkay Gundogan
52nd - Bunny Shaw
Manchester City strikers score goals, that’s just what they do. 17 starts in the WSL last season returned 21 goals. We want a minimum of a +2 for Bunny, if not more. She was by far the best player in the WSL last season and we expect that to be reflected in her FC 25 rating.
51st - Phil Foden
50th - Nicolo Barella
49th - Gianluigi Donnarumma
48th - Trent Alexander-Arnold
47th - Selma Bacha
46th - Declan Rice
45th - Lena Oberdorf
44th - Ewa Pajor
43rd - Sakina Karchaoui
Lyon may dominate in the French top tier but it was Sakina Karchaoui of PSG who really impressed last season. After featuring in EA Sports’ Team of The Year we think she’ll be upped by 2 and into the 88 category for FC 25.
42nd - Wendie Renard
41st - Marie-Antoinette Katoto
40th - Debinha
39th - Jan Oblak
38th - Joshua Kimmich
37th - Neymar
36th - Alex Morgan
35th - Lauren Hemp
34th - Fede Valverde
33rd - Lautaro Martinez
32nd - Irene Paredes
31st - Bruno Fernandes
30th - Bernardo Silva
29th - Ederson
28th - Martin Odegaard
27th - Bukayo Saka
26th - Lionel Messi
It was only a matter of time, Lionel Messi finally dips under 90 rated and in fact we predict he’ll drop to an 88. It was still an incredible year for the Argentine but as we all know, as soon as a player moves outside the Top 5 leagues and starts to age, their rating declines.
25th - Christiane Endler
24th - Sophia Smith
Sophia Smith is her. 17 Goal Contributions in 15 NWSL games so far this season and managed to fit in time to win an Olympic Gold Medal over the summer. If she wasn’t overpowered enough already we think they’ll be a +1 across the board and will be haunting our Champs games for a long time.
23rd - Jude Bellingham
22nd - Robert Lewandowski
21st - Antione Griezmann
20th - Guro Reiten
19th - Ada Hegerberg
18th - Kadidiatou Diani
17th - Ruben Dias
16th - Mapi Leon
15th - Patri Guijarro
14th - Mohamed Salah
13th - Virgil van Dijk
12th - Alisson
11th - Vinicius Jr
10th - Thibaut Courtois
9th - Sam Kerr
8th - Rodri
7th - Caroline Graham Hansen
6th - Harry Kane
5th - Alexia Putellas
4th - Kylian Mbappe
3rd - Erling Haaland
2nd - Kevin De Bruyne
1st - Aitana Bonmati
A new entry at Number 1 and it’s Aitana Bonmati. After a Ballon d’Or win, another Liga F Title and a UWCL win over Lyon we’re expecting a +1 to 91. It’s an exclusive club with 4 members just like FC 24, but Bonmati moving up with push down team mate Alexia Putellas to 90.
