EA FC 26 Top 50 Player Ratings - Leaks & Predictions

Hey fans, the latest installment in EA Sports FC series is almost here! Whether from leaks or closed beta testing, we know the developers are working tirelessly to address the frequently complained-about bugs and flaws in last year's FIFA 25. Not only are they promising significant adjustments to the passing and dribbling systems, but they're also overhauling the goalkeeper AI to ensure a smoother gaming experience.

However, as a football simulation, it's clear that the core of FUT series has always been how it incorporates the likes of numerous well-known players into the game and provides a refreshingly new experience.

So, predictably, we know that EA Sports FC 26 will disrupt player ratings in some interesting ways. This means your previously unstoppable Ultimate Team lineup may no longer be valid. Resting on your laurels is not a good idea!

Possible Rating Release Date

Based on the rating release schedule for previous versions, IGGM.com speculates that EA FC 26 player ratings will probably be released approximately two weeks before the game's release.

It's worth noting that the developers know how to whet players' appetites. Typically, they gradually update player ratings to create a more intense and exciting atmosphere. Aren't you excited to see how your planned starting lineup performs?

The developers will first release the top 50 players in FIFA 26, followed by the best players in each league, and finally the complete ratings database.

With the gradual release of player ratings, the transfer market is likely to undergo significant changes. Some players could be valued at tens of millions of coins, while some may really be ignored. Therefore, if you can discern current player rating trends and invest in undervalued players early in the game, you might be able to earn a significant amount of FC 26 coins!

50. Declan Rice (Arsenal, CM) - 87

It's clear from this list that some FC 26 players have seen significant rating increases compared to FC 25, particularly Mohamed Salah, who tops the list. This significant increase is entirely because of his outstanding performance in another POTY-winning campaign, so his rating is understandable.

If you're considering adding Mohamed Salah to your squad in FC 26, I recommend purchasing FIFA 26 coins on IGGM.com.com in advance, as his signing price this year is definitely not cheap!

Additionally, several highly rated players in EA FC 25 have largely remained the same in 26. After all, these legends, such as Mbappé, Bonmati, and Alexia Putellas, have left their mark on the hearts of nearly every fanbase.

Raphinha is also worth noting. His outstanding performance for FC Barcelona last year saw his rating increase by 5 points in FC 26. His teammate, Lamine Yamal, also received the biggest boost in the team's history. Honestly, Lamine has consistently outperformed Raphinha in matches, but Raphinha's stats are more impressive, so it remains to be seen who will reach the 90 OVR mark this year!

Highest-Rated Player Predictions

So who will be the highest-rated legend in FIFA 26? Based on their performances in the 24/25 season, we can probably make a reasonable guess.

First up, we have Kylian Mbappe and Aitana Bonmati, who were ranked high last year. They're likely to maintain their current positions and are very likely to continue climbing to the top.

While Mbappe didn't win any major trophies last year, his goal output and excellent on-the-spot reaction more than made up for it. Mbappe's transfer price reached 240,000 last year, so if you want to sign him this year, you'll definitely need to have enough EA FC 26 coins.

Based on leaked player ratings, Mohamed Salah is also a strong contender for Player of the Year award, given Egyptian's impressive performance last season.

Next up is Erling Haaland, one of the most feared strikers in Premier League and a global football superstar. While he didn't live up to expectations last season, countless fans are anticipating a strong season.

As for Jude Bellingham, the cover star of EA Sports FC 26, we expect his rating to remain around 90.

Finally, there's Lamine Yamal, one of the top Ballon d'Or contenders. He scored six goals last season for the highly attacking Barcelona team. In FC 26, his rating is expected to climb to 89, quickly becoming one of the game's most sought-after players.

That concludes our understanding and predictions of the top 50 player ratings in EA FC 26. While final is still pending from the official database, we hope this information will help you plan your team and sign your ideal players!
