EA Sports FC 25: Fastest Players

All stats are ranked between 1-99 on EA Sports FC 25

97 Pace: Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid)

No player on the game has received a 99 pace rating on the game, however, this will change during the year as EA release promo items with increased statistics.

When looking at the newly released ‘base’ cards, it is Kylian Mbappe who takes top spot in relation to pace – earning a whopping score of 97.

This is the fourth year in a row that the Frenchman has been deemed the fastest player in the world, achieving a score of 97 in each of those four years.

Mbappe has a superb 23/24 campaign, which is why he is also the highest rated player in the game alongside Erling Haaland and Rodri – all being handed an overall rating of 91.

A move to Real Madrid has only increased his status across the world and given EA more of a reason to hand the French international a monstrous pace rating.

96 Pace: Karim Adeyemi (Borussia Dortmund)

Coming in as the second fastest player on EA Sports FC 25 is Borussia Dortmund star, Karim Adeyemi, who has kept his position from FC 24.

This is also the second consecutive year that the German has been awarded a 96 pace rating, which was earned through an impressive season with Dortmund – including a Champions League final appearance.

The speedy winger had a torrid time with injuries but prior to his initial knock, Adeyemi contributed to three goals in six UCL appearances.

95 Pace: Gareth Bale (Icon), Yankuba Minteh (Brighton), Alphonso Davies (Bayern Munich), Theo Hernandez (AC Milan), Moussa Diaby (Al-Ittihad), Vinicius Jr. (Real Madrid)

A host of players have been given a score of 95 for their pace this year, including a list of star names like Vinicius Jr, Alphonso Davies and Gareth Bale.

Bale, who announced his retirement from the spot in January 2023, will now be available to FC 25 players once again in the form of an icon card.

Icon cards are handed to players who enjoyed strong careers in the sport, which is a fitting description for the Welshman – winning five UCL trophies with Real Madrid.

Another Los Blancos star is in the mix, as Vinicius Jr sits among the fastest players in the world and also earned an overall rating of 90 – an increase from 89 last year.

This overall improvement will come as no surprise, winning the La Liga and Champions League double last season which included 35 goal contributions from the Brazilian.

A duo of left backs also made the cut, as Alphonso Davies and Theo Hernandez are once again in the fastest players debate.

Brighton’s Yankuba Minteh is a new addition to the list, jumping from 88 pace to 95 this year and Moussa Diaby has kept his rating from FC 24 despite moving to the Saudi Pro League.

94 Pace: Nestory Irankuda (Bayern Munich), Kevin Schade (Brentford), Rosemonde Kouassi (Washington Spirit), Inaki Williams (Athletic Club), Tabitha Chawinga (Lyon Womens), Rafael Leao (AC Milan), Trinity Rodman (Washinton Spirit Womens)

Dropping down to 94 pace and we have our first female additions, as Tabitha Chawinga and Trinity Rodman have been ranked as the fastest females in the game.

Chawinga has received an increase of six to her pace this year and has tied Rodman, who has kept the 94 rating from last year’s game.

Other standouts are Inaki Williams, who has been given 94 pace once again, earning this impressive score every year since FIFA 20.

AC Milan superstar, Rafael Leao, has been given an upgrade in the pace department, increasing from 93 to 94 in EA Sports FC 25.

Youngsters, Nestory Irankuda, Kevin Schade and Rosemonde Kouassi have also earned a place in the conversation for the world’s speediest footballer.
