Fifa 23 Ratings The Best Players For Every Position

For years, FIFA 23 ratings have been an easy numerical way to understand the quality of a player. These are endlessly debated, of course, as players come in and out of form, but, like a review score, they’re an easy-to-digest signifier of your favourite sportsperson’s quality.

So, we’ve got the 25 highest players based on their FIFA 23 ratings, so you can pick out the best of the best for your team, whether you’re playing career mode, multiplayer, or the unfathomably big ultimate team mode. For more help, check out our FIFA 23 career mode, FIFA 23 Switch, and FIFA 23 crossplay guides. We’ve also got a guide to the best football games on Switch if you fancy playing something different.

Here we go then, time for some FIFA 23 rating tables listing the players, their overall rating, as well as pace, shooting, passing, dribbling, defence, and physical skills.
