Best teams in EA FC 25 – Player ratings leaked

As a seasoned football enthusiast who’s seen it all, from Maradona’s Hand of God to Beckham’s free-kick against Greece, I must say, the teams for this year’s EA FC 25 are shaping up quite interestingly!

In much the same way as top teams in real-life football, the stellar squads of EA FC 25 boast exceptional talents spread across the entire playing field.

Choosing any of these teams could provide you with a competitive advantage against other players, particularly in the traditional Kick Off gameplay. Each team will be endowed with unique playing strategies, which are expected to be more impactful than before due to FC IQ.

In light of this conversation, I’d like to share the top-ranked squads in EA FC 25, based on ratings allegedly leaked by ‘DonkTrading,’ ‘FUT Scoreboard,’ and ‘FUTSheriff’ on platform X.

Best FC 25 teams leaked

Manchester City

Without a doubt, Manchester City has emerged as the top team in EA FC 25. Known as The Citizens, they secured their fourth consecutive Premier League title last season and further enhanced their trophy collection by winning the FIFA Club World Cup. To honor their remarkable accomplishment, several notable enhancements have been bestowed upon the squad, such as a +3 upgrade for Phil Foden, raising his overall rating to 88.

In their squad, they boast two of the top four players with the highest ratings in the game: Rodri (91 Overall Rating) and Erling Haaland (91 OVR), along with Kevin De Bruyne (90 OVR) and Bernardo Silva (88 OVR). It’s no surprise that City is expected to be one of the most selected teams when playing in the Kick Off game mode.

Barcelona Femeni

In the soccer game EA FC 25, Barcelona Femeni have continued to strengthen their dominance. Their impressive season that saw them win a treble has been recognized by EA, leading to upgrades for key players like Aitana Bonmati (rated 91 OVR) and Caroline Graham Hansen (90 OVR). Additionally, Alexia Putellas, Mapi Leon, and Patri Guijarro have also received high ratings of 90 OVR, 89 OVR, and 88 OVR respectively.

On the field, you’ll witness an expertly executed game of intricate tiki-taka soccer, featuring shrewd runs and interconnected passing patterns which may catch the opposing defense off guard. Moreover, the team boasts a deep bench ready for substitution whenever needed.

Real Madrid

Last year, European monarchs claimed another UEFA Champions League trophy, along with two domestic championships – marking a historic triple victory. They’ve further strengthened their offense by acquiring the talented young French player Kylian Mbappe, thus initiating a new wave of Galacticos. In terms of performance ratings, Mbappe continues to hold an impressive 91 rating, and newcomer Jude Bellingham now belongs to the elite 90-rated players.

As a gamer, I’m thrilled to share that Vinicius Jr.’s exceptional season has boosted his in-game rating to 90, reminiscent of a Ballon d’Or campaign. The Madrid faithful will undoubtedly appreciate Antonio Rudiger’s well-deserved upgrade to 88 as well. Our team is further strengthened by the consistent performances of Thibaut Courtois (89 OVR), Federico Valverde (88 OVR), Luka Modric (86 OVR), and Rodrygo (86 OVR).

Liverpool

2023-24 wasn’t a stellar season for Liverpool, with only Alexis Mac Allister (86 OVR) being the significant new addition to discuss. However, the team’s strength lies in its established players such as Mohamed Salah (89 OVR), Virgil van Dijk (89 OVR), and Alisson (89 OVR), who have maintained their ratings from the previous year, continuing to form the backbone of the squad.

On the field, Liverpool’s playing style may shift slightly due to the new coaching approach. Therefore, you might not see as much aggressive pressing from the team as before. However, the Slot-ball gameplay remains challenging and exciting, making the team enjoyable to control regardless of possession.

Arsenal

Last season, Arsenal narrowly missed winning the Premier League championship, but they’ve been rewarded with several enhancements in FC 25. The improvements are most notable for Martin Odegaard (who now has an overall rating of 89), Bukayo Saka (87 OVR), Declan Rice (87 OVR), and William Saliba (who’s seen a significant boost with an 87 OVR).

Despite their impressive offensive strategies, it’s Arsenal’s robust defense that truly sets them apart and demands respect. The duo of Saliba and Gabriel (86 OVR) forms the most reliable central defensive partnership in the league, and they are backed by the wing-protecting agility of Ben White (84 OVR). In terms of defensive strength, Arsenal ranks among the top teams in EA FC 25.

Inter

Last year, Inter Milan, a powerhouse team from Italy, effortlessly outplayed their domestic rivals to win both the Scudetto and Supercoppa Italiana. They’ve assembled one of Europe’s top squads, with Lautaro Martinez (89 OVR), who won the Copa America, leading the charge up front. In the midfield, Nico Barella (87 OVR) and Hakan Çalhanoğlu (86 OVR) provide a harmonious blend of stability and offensive prowess.

Speaking of the defense, Alessandro Bastoni (87 overall rating), Francesco Acerbi (84 OVR), and Benjamin Pavard (84 OVR) stand out as the top three defenders in the Italian Serie A.

Lyon Féminin

Despite falling short in the UWCL, Lyon still claimed their 17th Première Ligue title last year, making it no wonder they are among the top teams in EA FC 25. This team is packed with elite players from end to end, starting with Ada Hegerberg (89 OVR) at the front. Other notable players include Kadidiatou Diani (88 OVR), who excels with her speed, and Christiane Endler (88 OVR), a top-tier goalkeeper.

Experienced defender Wendie Renard (88 overall rating), serving as our defensive foundation, is paired with Selma Bacha (86 overall rating), who skillfully patrols the left wing.

Bayern Munich

Although Bayern significantly bolstered their team during the previous summer season, they surprisingly missed out on winning the Bundesliga for more than ten years in a row. In truth, this stellar squad failed to secure any trophies at all, marking the end of a remarkable run of domestic supremacy. However, it’s worth noting that Bayern boasts some top-tier European talent such as Harry Kane (90 OVR), Jamal Musiala (87 OVR), Joshua Kimmich (86 OVR), and Manuel Neuer (86 OVR).

🚨 Here’s an update on Bayern Munich ratings in FC:

Although the team offers many attractive offensive choices, its defensive stability seems lacking, which might make potential players hesitate about choosing them.

Barcelona

In EA FC 25, Barcelona’s team rating remains mostly the same as before, except Robert Lewandowski received a -2, bringing his overall rating to 90. Despite not being able to compete with Real Madrid on paper, this Barcelona squad is packed with top-tier talent. For skillful midfield maneuvers, you can rely on Frenkie de Jong (87 OVR) and Pedri (86 OVR). Meanwhile, Ronald Araujo (85 OVR) and Jules Kounde (85 OVR) offer robust defense.

Try out your team once the game is live, as they’ve just received an upgrade to a sharpened Lamine Yamal (81 OVR).

Chelsea Women

In the 23/24 season, the Emma Hayes era concluded triumphantly as Chelsea claimed their fifth straight WSL title. However, they came up short against Barcelona in Europe yet again, which may explain why there aren’t many upgrades to their ratings. Nonetheless, The Blues remain one of the top teams in EA FC 25, boasting highly-rated players like Sam Kerr (90 OVR) and Guro Reiten (88 OVR).

It’s pleasing to observe a well-deserved boost of +3 for Lauren James. Furthermore, the defense continues to stand firm with Millie Bright (85 OVR) and Ashley Lawrence (85 OVR) at the helm.

Previously noted, this ranking is derived from leaked scores and may be revised before the game launch. Therefore, consider these ratings as tentative.

We’ll make certain to revise this article as soon as the formal statistics become available. In the meantime, feel free to explore other leaked EA FIFA 25 ratings and the most significant improvements and declines thus far.
