What happened to the ratings of Kylian Mbappé and Haaland in EA Sports FC 26?
One of the most anticipated moments in gaming is here: EA Sports has finally unveiled the player ratings for FC 26! These ratings not only reflect how footballers performed on the pitch last year, but also completely reshape the Ultimate Team (FUT) market.
This year’s list is packed with major leaps and unexpected drops that have surprised everyone. Here’s a look at the global elite and the most talked-about rating changes:
The competition at the top is fierce, with the 90+ club growing even bigger this year.
| Player | Rating | Position | Club | Global Comment |
| Kylian Mbappé | 92 | FW | PSG/New Club? | The king of speed. Maintains his spot at the top. |
| Erling Haaland | 91 | FW | Manchester City | Unmatched finishing, but his dribbling rating is up for debate. |
| Florian Wirtz | 90 | CAM | Leverkusen | Best of the season in Germany. Jumped from 85 to 90 and joined the elite club. |
| Vinícius Jr. | 90 | LW | Real Madrid | One of the new faces of world football. His pace and skill ratings are off the charts. |
| Kevin De Bruyne | 90 | CM | Manchester City | A true playmaking genius. Expected to drop below 90, but held his ground. |
This year’s ratings spotlight not just the elite, but also young stars who jumped by 10+ points. These players will be in high demand during the first weeks of Ultimate Team.
| Player | New Rating | Previous Rating | Difference | Impact |
| Cole Palmer | 89 | 78 | +11 | One of the biggest rating jumps ever seen in an FC game. Could become the most wanted CAM card of the year. |
| Lamine Yamal | 84 | 76 | +8 | Now the highest-rated player under 18. |
| Ronald Araújo | 87 | 80 | +7 | A rare and significant boost for a defender. |
Critics and fans alike are struggling to accept the rating drops for some veteran stars.
Joshua Kimmich (dropped from 89 to 88): Despite his versatility in-game, even a single point drop has sparked major debate among fans of the German midfielder.
Casemiro (dropped from 89 to 86): Suffered the biggest decrease since last season, no longer a "meta" card in FUT and his price has hit rock bottom.
Surprising Static for Goalkeepers: Some of the world’s top keepers (e.g. Courtois) stayed at 90 despite stellar performances, while players expected 91+.
These ratings change everything in Ultimate Team:
New Meta: Dynamic cards like Palmer (89) will sell for more than static 91-rated cards.
SBC Value: High-rated cards (88-89) that don’t make it into FUT squads due to low pace will be quickly snapped up for Squad Building Challenges (SBC).
