EA FC 25: 10 Tallest Players, Ranked

Key Takeaways

  • Pair tall players with faster ones for effectiveness in both defense and offense.
  • Utilize tall players in corners and crosses to maximize their aerial abilities.
  • Investing in young tall players allows for stat improvement and potential future profit. (120)

As a seasoned career manager with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the Danish striker Ementa is indeed a promising talent. His younger age and overall superior stats make him an attractive option for any team looking to build for the future. However, his lack of height might hinder his Heading Accuracy, which could be improved over time with proper training.

It’s advantageous to have a taller team member, whether they play defense or offense, as they can increase our chances of succeeding in airborne conflicts and even scoring with headed goals. However, keep in mind that players of significant height in EA Sports FC 25 often possess a slow speed, which makes relying on them offensively a substantial risk. This slowness also hinders them from intercepting quicker opposing forwards before they reach the goal.

A smart strategy for utilizing taller players effectively is to partner them with quicker teammates, either in the defensive core or on the offensive wing. This setup ensures that your team maintains an advantage over swift opponents from the rival team during attacks and defense.

In this list, goalkeepers have been omitted. It’s intriguing to note that many of the top 20 tallest players in the EA Sports FC 25 are typically goalkeepers, but their height isn’t particularly noteworthy since most goalies tend to be quite tall anyway.

10 Aleksander Vukotic

Height: 6’7″ (201cm)

  • Position: CB
  • Nationality: Serbia
  • Overall: 70

As a gamer, I’ve found that the 30-year-old Serbian defender playing for Darmstadt might not be the freshest face on the block, but he’s a fantastic choice for managers juggling tight budgets. He can help boost our team’s average height significantly without breaking the bank.

Due to his towering stature, Vukotic boasts a physical score of 82, an impressive feat for a player with an overall rating of 70. His jumping ability is rated at 74, while his heading precision stands at 77. However, the stat that truly stands out is his Strength score of 95. This remarkable attribute will make it easier for Vukotic to secure the ball and hold onto it more tenaciously.

9 Paul Ebere Onuachu

Height: 6’7″ (201cm)

  • Position: ST
  • Nationality: Nigeria
  • Overall: 76

If you prioritize a high total rating over tall stature when recruiting players, then Onuachu might be your top choice among available options. Amongst all the forwards on this list, Onuachu has the highest overall rating and boasts exceptional shooting abilities compared to his fellow strikers.

The Nigerian forward excels at claiming high balls due to his impressive Heading Precision (87) and Jumping Skill (82). This positions Onuachu as a reliable Target Forward, ready to catch crosses from the field’s flanks. Additionally, he poses a significant threat to opponents during corners and free-kicks.

8 Marcus Dackers

Height: 6’7″ (201cm)

  • Position: ST
  • Nationality: Wales
  • Overall: 56

Among the players listed, the least likely choice for most Ultimate Managers is this individual, except perhaps under specific circumstances like Squad Building Challenges. Even in a career mode scenario with a financially constrained team from lower divisions in Europe, opting for Dackers might not be the best decision due to their perceived skills and abilities.

Although Dackers stands tall, he struggles to capitalize on his height effectively, as he has a Jump Reach of 73 and a Heading Precision of 58, which are rather underwhelming. However, this means that he comes at a budget-friendly price in both the Ultimate Team and Career transfer markets. Thus, potential suitors might want to consider signing Dackers, who could be an affordable addition to their team.

7 Jamie Lawrence

Height: 6’7″ (201cm)

  • Position: CB
  • Nationality: Germany
  • Overall: 66

Although the German center-back may not boast impressive statistics, he can effectively utilize his height to some extent. With a leap of 72 and heading precision of 70, Lawrence becomes a reasonably priced option in defense for those who are budget-conscious yet require a towering player in their backline.

Lawrence and Vukotic share the same tall stature, however, it’s worth noting that Vukotic is just 22 years old. Therefore, career mode players have an opportunity to cultivate a reliable central defender out of Lawrence through diligent training and stat enhancement over several seasons.

6 Skelly Alvero

Height: 6’8″ (202cm)

  • Position: CDM
  • Nationality: France
  • Overall: 69

This season, Alvero has joined the team Werder Bremen. He is a young, up-and-coming defensive midfielder with an exciting future. His current statistics are promising and can be greatly enhanced in the future. Sidible is another defensive midfielder on this list who stands slightly taller than Alvero, but when it comes to overall stats, Werder Bremen’s midfielder outperforms Sidible.

As a devoted fan, I’d express it like this: I’m thrilled about Alvero, boasting an impressive Physical rating of 80. He’s perfect for a CDM role, providing solid support to our defense line and excelling at regaining possession before potential threats reach the penalty area. However, his heading accuracy could use some work, which is a minor concern. But fear not! His robust skills in other areas more than make up for this slight weakness.

5 Jabir Abdihakim Ali

Height: 6’8″ (202cm)

  • Position: ST
  • Nationality: Sweden
  • Overall: 58

Just like Dackers, Abdihakim might not be the first choice for many players. However, unlike Dackers, Abdihakim’s height sets him apart, which is his only advantage since other stats leave much to be desired. His Jumping ability stands at 77 and he has a Heading Accuracy of 70.

The young Swedish forward isn’t particularly swift at the moment, being just 23 years old. Spending time training with Abdihakim in Career mode could potentially boost his abilities, but it’s important to note that he still has areas needing improvement. Even after these enhancements, he may not become a reliable striker due to some noticeable shortcomings that need addressing.

4 Anosike Ementa

Height: 6’8″ (202cm)

  • Position: ST
  • Nationality: Denmark
  • Overall: 66

Choosing Ementa over Abdihakim for practice sessions seems more advantageous. Although Ementa is younger, he boasts superior stats across all skill areas compared to Abdihakim. However, Ementa struggles with Heading Accuracy due to his stature, but with time, this aspect could improve.

The Danish forward is even quicker than Abdihakim, another advantage for him, but he still needs substantial improvement to increase his scoring abilities. Regardless of whether he suits our team or not, Ementa has potential and could be developed before being sold to other clubs for some financial gain in the career mode.

3 Kalidou Sidibe

Height: 6’8″ (202cm)

  • Position: CDM
  • Nationality: France
  • Overall: 67

Among the top defensive midfielders, Sidibe has a slight edge, particularly in terms of defensive skills compared to Alvero. However, this difference is minimal. In terms of heading accuracy, Sidibe shows a slightly better performance, but for seasoned players, this skill can be enhanced swiftly within a short period.

In a simpler phrasing: While both players are French, Alvero has an advantage as he can also contribute to offensive plays, and his superior shooting skills increase his chances of scoring. Contrarily, despite his height, Sidibe may not be the ideal choice to lead the defense line.

2 Kyle Hudlin

Height: 6’9″ (206cm)

  • Position: ST
  • Nationality: England
  • Overall: 60

Hudlin might prove to be either a successful or a less effective choice for the offense. Although he stands considerably taller than other strikers in contention, his heading accuracy isn’t specialized and his jumping skills aren’t as impressive as Onuachu’s. However, it should be noted that he will come at a lower price tag. Yet, he may require more coaching to develop into a reliable attacker.

The English player maintains an average speed that’s decent initially, but his heading accuracy leaves much to be desired given his towering stature. There’s room for improvement in those areas, yet Onuachu boasts superior statistics. However, it’s important to note that the Nigerian striker is currently 31 years old.

1 Souleymane Isaak Toure

Height: 6’9″ (206cm)

  • Position: CB
  • Nationality: France
  • Overall: 72

Among the listed players, it’s the tallest one who is also the youngest. Isaac Toure, just 21 years old, stands out with an impressive overall rating that’s been boosted considerably by his Physical stats as a French player. Toure boasts a Physical rating of 84, the highest on this list for a center-back, making him a valuable asset.

Starting improvements at a Pace of 66 is equally beneficial, even though it’s relatively low. It’s wiser to start enhancing here instead of waiting for a rating below 60. The Heading Accuracy of 66 undeniably requires more practice, but Toure’s youth makes him an excellent candidate for several seasons of training and honing his skills in Career mode.
