Many Blues fans around the world will be eager to put all our new signings to the test on the game, whether playing in kick off mode against friends, Ultimate Team against online players or via Career Mode against the new and improved AI. Well, there’s no need to wait any longer, so let’s take a look at the Chelsea squad’s new FIFA ratings.

N’Golo Kante remains our highest-rated player on the game with an 88-overall rating. You can take control of the midfield using the Frenchman with his 86-rated defending and 82-rated physicality.Timo Werner is officially our fastest player on FIFA 21, with a rating of 91. Christian Pulisic may want to challenge that title, as he is just behind with 89. Both attackers will be working hard on the pitch to get that winter upgrade sooner rather than later.Hakim Ziyech is yet to make his Premier League debut, but he is a must-have card on FIFA 21. The 85 overall-rated Moroccan will unlock defences with ease using his 87-rated passing and 89-rated vision. You can also use him to try out all the new skill moves on the game, such as the ‘ball roll’, ‘fake turn’ or the ‘directional nutmeg’, with Ziyech excelling on the new game with the ‘flair’ trait.

After his impressive debut Premier League season, Reece James has an improved card of 77. This is a nice boost for the right-back, who has also been handed the ‘early crosser’ trait. Use him to set up the 85-rated Kai Havertz, who will have no problem controlling those crosses with his 87-rated ball control and 88-rated sprint speed. Not to mention he has an impressive 85 score for his finishing.You can also enjoy playing at Stamford Bridge, with Frank Lampard on the touchline and The Liquidator blasting out in the background when the players take to the field. Our new Nike kits are looking pretty slick too.
