Additionally, there is a dramatic shift in who is top of the player ratings.

For more than a decade, it has been a battle between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi for who has the highest rating in the game.

FIFA 23 does not have a single best player. Messi, though, is one of five players to have been awarded a rating of 91 along with cover star Kylian Mbappe, Robert Lewandowski, Karim Benzema and Kevin de Bruyne.

Cristiano Ronaldo, meanwhile, enjoyed a rating of 91 for FIFA 22 but sees his figure drop by one. Is he starting to decline having also seen his Man Utd contract rescinded in November 2022. Ronaldo joins Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Manuel Neuer and Thibaut Courtois on 90.
