FIFA 21 Real Madrid Ratings: Balance Is the Key

FIFA 21 is coming out today and so is the next part of our ratings overview. We went for Barcelona on the day prior to release and left Real Madrid for the big day itself.

If you are looking for the best players for your FIFA 21 Ultimate Team, you should definitely have a look at the Spanish La Liga. With six players, Real Madrid alone represents more than half of the best eleven in the Spanish league. We have looked at the ratings of the Spanish champions and how they compare to their FIFA 20 numbers.

FIFA 21 Real Madrid Ratings

Despite lifting the La Liga title, Real Madrid don't have a single player with a 90+ rating. Both players that did hold a rating in the 90s in FIFA 20 - Luka Modrić and Eden Hazard, have dropped into the 80s. One due to age and not winning the Ballon d'Or, the other due to injuries. Real's strength lies in midfield where even their weakest player is an 83 OVR.
