Kylian Mbappe’s unique celebration, originally inspired by his brother Ethan during a game of FIFA, has become an iconic sight after his countless goal celebrations. From virtual gaming glory to the actual pitch, Mbappe has made it his own, and it’s now a familiar sight for fans worldwide.

As the highly-anticipated release of EA Sports FC 24 approaches, Mbappe’s impressive ratings and statistics have been revealed, making him an even more enticing choice for gamers. Let’s take a look at how Mbappe’s ratings compare to some of his peers.

In the world of EA FC24, no player, male or female, boasts a higher rating than Mbappe’s impressive 91. One standout stat on Mbappe’s card is his astounding pace, rated at 97. His electrifying speed on the virtual pitch has even left professional players like Aston Villa’s Matty Cash in awe, describing how Mbappe’s speed seemed to “burn” his legs and his ability to change direction leaves defenders in a daze.

Mbappe also ranks highly in other key attributes, with a shooting rating of 90 and a dribbling rating of 92. These numbers reflect his real-world prowess as PSG’s all-time leading scorer. Despite his impressive goal tally and 22 top-flight assists since the summer of 2021, only two Ligue 1 players have surpassed him in this timeframe, and Mbappe receives a passing rating of 80.

Erling Haaland has often been compared to Mbappe, with many seeing them as the successors to the iconic rivalry of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. EA Sports has fueled this comparison by giving Haaland the same overall rating as Mbappe. Among male players, only Kevin De Bruyne, Haaland’s teammate at Manchester City, shares an overall score of 91. In the realm of female players, Barcelona’s Alexia Putellas holds the highest rating at 91.

Haaland’s shooting rating of 93 stands out as his top attribute. His incredible debut season saw him become the first player in 92 years to score at least 50 goals for an English club across all competitions. Giorgio Chiellini of LAFC was the highest-rated MLS player in FIFA 23 with an 84 rating. This year, Lionel Messi comfortably takes the top spot on that list with a rating of 90.

Despite his age, Messi’s remarkable performances led Argentina to their first World Cup victory since 1986 in the Qatar World Cup. Messi showcased his skills by scoring in six out of seven matches, including twice in a thrilling final. While this version of Messi may not be the fastest with a pace rating of 80, he still excels in shooting (87), passing (90), and especially dribbling (94). Among the top 24-rated players in this year’s game, Messi remains the most accomplished dribbler.

In summary, Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, and Lionel Messi each bring their unique strengths to the virtual pitch, making them exciting choices for gamers in EA Sports FC 24.
