As the release date ofEA Sports FC 25is nearing, the anticipation regarding it is going higher. Whenever a new EA FC title (coughs, FIFA) is around the corner, the biggest hype has always been around the ratings of the players. Previously, it was a no-brainer that Messi and Ronaldo, the footballing giants, would take the top spots.

But now times have changed, and their ratings have changed. Similarly, for goalkeepers, Germany’s Manuel Neuer and Italy’s Gianluigi Buffon made a habit of being the highest-rated final frontiers in this long-hailed soccer simulation title. A viable change is seen here as well, as another Italian this time holds the top spot. Here are the top 5 goalkeepers (in ascending order) inEA Sports FC 25:

5Ederson (Manchester City/Brazil) – 88 OVR

The no. 5 on this list is Ederson from Brazil. This player has been instrumental in Manchester City’s four consecutive English Premier League wins. However, his last year’s performance is regarded as the best of all four. Starting his career in Portugal’s second-division league, this player later went on to replace famous Chelsea stopper Claudio Bravo as the first-choice keeper in the 2017 side of Manchester City. With 13 clean sheets in 33 EPL matches last season, Ederson clearly deserves this rating.

4Marc-André ter Stegen (Barcelona/Germany) – 89 OVR

At no. 4 is FC Barcelona’s Marc-André ter Stegen. Despite Barcelona’s poor performance for the last couple of years, where the last one is trophyless, this German stopper has been phenomenal under the woodwork. Out of the top 5 goalkeepers inFC 25, this player boasts the highest reflex. And his match-saving performances in clutch situations clearly prove why he stands so high.

3Thibaut Courtois (Real Madrid/Belgium) – 89 OVR

This player needs no introduction, as the recent footballing years clearly belong to this man. Despite missing out almost the whole season, Courtois didn’t hesitate to guard the post for Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League Final last season after coming back from a serious ACL injury.

And keeping the trust of Carlo Ancelotti, he delivered in style by keeping a clean sheet against the attacking force of Sancho, Fullkrug, and Adeyemi to clinch the 15th UCL for the team.

2Alisson Becker (Liverpool/Brazil) – 89 OVR

Another goalkeeper from Brazil on this list is Liverpool’s Alisson Becker. This goalkeeper has been an integral part of the team since his arrival in 2018. He was one of the main reasons why Liverpool won the 2018-2019 UEFA Champions League. He also played an important role when the Reds put an end to their EPL drought of 30 long years.

1Gianluigi Donnarumma (PSG/Italy) – 89 OVR

The no one on that list is again an Italian, not that 46-year-old beast. This time the best-rated goalkeeper inFC 25is Gianluigi Donnarumma. After winning the 2021 UEFA Euro for Italy, this 25-year-old goalie came to PSG. He was outstanding for the French side last season as the team managed to win the domestic treble in 2023-2024.

David Raya’s Exclusion From the List Might Disappoint FC25 Fans

After seeing this list, many fans might be shocked to see the absence of Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya. Despite winning the Golden Gloves in the EPL last season, the player wasn’t featured even in the top 10. However, one thing thatwon’t disappoint theFC 25fans is a new mode in the game.

With Raya’s brilliant job under the post, Arsenal would have won the Premier League title and would have ended its league drought if it wasn’t the team of that bald genius, who have made the league look like a joke for the past four years. Raya is now rated 83, but he deserved a lot higher.
