Electronic Arts (EA) has already revealed the launch date of the next series of FIFA franchise. FIFA 21 would release globally on 9th October.
The new FIFA edition has already created a hype among the FIFA fans. It seems EA has finally listened to the fans and have brought in the requested changes to FIFA 21.
EA Sports has now revealed the FIFA 21 player’s rating. Here’s a list of the top 10 footballers with 5-star skill move in FIFA 21:
The Netherlands international is all set to leave Lyon and join Barcelona. You can probably guess that Depay deserves the 5-star skill move as when a club like Barcelona comes calling, he ain’t any ordinary player.
9. Riyad Mahrez
Club: Manchester City (Premier League) Nationality: Algeria Overall: 85 Position: RW
Mahrez won the Premier League with Leicester City which earned him a move to Manchester City, where he has won the Premier League as well. He has been an important part of Guardiola’s squad.
8. Thiago Alcantara
Club: Bayern Munich (Bundesliga) Nationality: Spain Overall: 85 Position: CM
Thiago has been in great form for club and country and doing what is expected of him, winning a continental treble with Bayern. But FIFA has decreased his rating by -2 so this is a testament that FIFA can do some errors while handling ratings.
7. Paul Pogba
Club: Manchester United (Premier League) Nationality: France Overall: 86 Position: CM
Having missed for more than half of the 2019/20 season due to injury and being underwhelming when he did return to fitness, Pogba failed to keep up his performances from the 2018/19 season. With a plethora of midfielders taking his place in France, the midfielder clearly has more work to do. But there’s no doubt about his footballing abilities.
6. Roberto Firmino
Club: Liverpool (Premier League) Nationality: Brazil Overall: 87 Position: CF
Firmino is an important part of Klopp’s attacking trio. He often drops deep and connects the midfield and offers Salah and Mane enough space to score goals.
5. Jadon Sancho
Club: Borussia Dortmund (Bundesliga) Nationality: England Overall: 87 Position: RM
Sancho is one of the brightest young talents of world football. The Dortmund star is wanted by all the top European clubs.
4. Angel Di Maria
Club: Paris Saint-Germain (Ligue 1) Nationality: Argentina Overall: 87 Position: RW
The Argentine forms a deadly trio with Mbappe and Neymar. He has previously won the Champions League with Real Madrid but has failed to do so last season with PSG. He will like to have a go once again this season.
3. Kylian Mbappe
Club: Paris Saint-Germain (Ligue 1) Nationality: France Overall: 90 Position: ST
The FIFA 21 cover star took his club all the way to the Champions League final but failed to beat Bayern in the finals. Mbappe would be hoping to pair with Neymar once again in a bid to bring the Champions League trophy home.
2. Neymar Jr
Club: Paris Saint-Germain (Ligue 1) Nationality: Brazil Overall: 91 Position: LW
The Brazilian finally seemed to blossom outside Messi’s shadow but he lost the Champions League final to Bayern. Neymar has shown massive maturity last season and would hope to win the Champions League this season.
1. Cristiano Ronaldo
Club: Juventus (Serie A) Nationality: Portugal Overall: 92 Position: ST
Even at 35 years of age, he is going strong. Ronaldo has recently scored a brace against Sweden to become the only second player in history and the only active player to score 100+ international goals.
Kylian Mbappe will only leave Paris Saint-Germain next summer if he can join Real Madrid.
According to El Chiringuito’s reports Mbappé has already decided to play for the Spanish Champion under Zinedine Zidane.
According to multiple reports all over Europe, Mbappé has announced to the club that he will leave the club next summer transfer window. He will make a move to England or Spain. In recent reports, it shows that he has decided to play only for Real Madrid.
Mbappé joined PSG in 2017 after a big-money move from Monaco. In 3 seasons with PSG, he has won 8 trophies including 3 league titles. PSG was the runners up in last season’s UEFA Champions League. They lost to Bayern Munich in the finals.
Mbappé won World Cup in 2018 for his country. The winger forward is one of the most important members of that team.
If he finally joins Real Madrid then it will be a big gain for the Spanish giant. Real has faced some difficulties in converting goals in some big matches. Mbappé can give them a major boost in the attacking areas.
But there will be huge financial issues. The transfer amount will surely be very high. Real Madrid can have to release or sell some players to arrange the transfer money for the Frenchman.
Real Madrid has been monitoring him for a long time. If Mbappé finally decides to leave the French Champion then Real Madrid will surely go for him.

The Gabon international signed for Arsenal from Borussia Dortmund in January 2018. He has since made 111 appearances and scored 72 goals. In his first full season at the Emirates, Aubameyang jointly won the Premier League Golden Boot with 22 goals.
The future of the Arsenal captain was up in the air with many top European clubs interested in his signature.
The 31-year-old striker has now finally ended all transfer speculations and has signed a new three-year contract extension with Arsenal.
Last season, Aubameyang scored 29 goals in 44 appearances in all competitions and leading Arsenal to the FA Cup title. He has also kicked off this season in a similar fashion, scoring against Liverpool in the Community Shield as Arsenal lifted the trophy on penalties.
Aubameyang said: “Signing for this special club was never in doubt. It’s thanks to our fans, my team-mates, my family and everybody at this club that I feel like I belong here. I believe in Arsenal. We can achieve big things together. We have something exciting here and I believe the best is to come for Arsenal.”
Mikel Arteta added: “It was important for Pierre-Emerick to stay with us. He’s a superb player with an incredible mentality. Being the player to have taken the least amount of time to reach 50 goals with this club tells you everything you need to know about him and his way of working.”
“He’s an important leader for the team and a big part of what we’re building. He wants to be up there with the best players in the world and leave his mark. He can achieve that here.”
Technical director Edu said: “It’s clear Auba loves the club and everything we stand for on and off the pitch. He’s obviously a very important part of the team so we’re all delighted he has committed his future to us. It’s a big boost for everyone – fans, team-mates and staff.”.
It goes without saying that star forward and captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would once again prove to be the inspirational figure for all the Arsenal players this season as well. His wavy trickery and sublime skills have placed him in the elite bracket of Premier League strikers, while also achieving an impressive feat of scoring 20+ goals in consecutive seasons.
