It’s ratings weeks for EA Sports FC 26, and among other high profile names who’ve been given their launch rating for the new game, we now know Lionel Messi’s FUT rating.
The confirmation of Messi’s FC 26 rating comes as a wider reveal of the top MLS players, with Messi as the top rated player at 86 (and a RW, obviously). Second on the list of MLS players is Heung Min Son, who has recently moved to LAFC, and it one point lower, as a LW at 85. Rodrigo De Paul is at 84, with Thomas Muller at 80 (CAM), and Sergio Busquets at 80 (CDM), making up the top five players.
