It is no surprise to see that De Bruyne's best asset in FIFA 22 is his passing, as he has a rating of 93 for that particular attribute.

His dribbling is at an impressive 88 also.

In second is N'Golo Kante with a rating of 90. The Frenchman remains a key figure for Chelsea and was superb in the Champions League as the Blues were crowned champions. His best attributes are aggression, standing tackle and reactions.

Joshua Kimmich and Casemiro are joint third with a rating of 89.

Manchester City are the best-represented club in the top 25, with four entries.

They have De Bruyne, Rodri, Bernardo Silva ad Ilkay Gundogan as their representatives.

Real Madrid have three with Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro all featuring.

These two clubs have more players in the top 25 than the entirety of Serie A, as the Italian top flight is represented by just Nicolo Barella of Inter and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic of Lazio.

The Premier League has the most players in the top 25, with De Bruyne, Kante, Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba, Fabinho, Rodri, Thiago, Bernardo Silva, Jorginho, Gundogan and Wilfried Ndidi involved.

All of these players can be purchased on Career Mode as well as FIFA Ultimate Team.
