Electronic Arts (EA) has released its latest installment of the EA Sports FC football video game series, FC25, which features updated player ratings, modified gameplay, and other new enhancements.
Formerly known as FIFA, EA Sports FC is one of the most popular video game franchises in the world, with over 10 million users globally. Each year, football fans eagerly anticipate the release of the new edition of the game, looking forward to changes in their favourite players’ ratings and playstyles.
Zambian football enthusiasts are no exception, as BolaNews unveils the five highest-rated Zambian players, both male and female, in the new EA Sports FC25.
5. Stopilla Sunzu (Overall Rating: 74)
Sunzu’s ranking among the best Zambian players over a decade after inspiring the Chipolopolo to their maiden Africa Cup of Nations (AfCON) title is a testament to his unparalleled consistency. His physicality rating of 83 is one of the highest in the Chinese Super League.
4. Patson Daka (Overall Rating: 74)
While his overall has dropped from 75 to 74, Daka boasts a new pace rating of 89, which is the highest in the Leicester City FC squad.
3. Fashion Sakala (Overall Rating: 76)
The Saudi-based winger has leapfrogged Patson Daka to go top of the men’s ratings for Zambia in EA Sports FC. His overall was upgraded from 72 to 76 after setting the Saudi Pro League alight in his debut season with 17 goals.
2. Barbra Banda (Overall Rating: 77)
Barbra Banda will grace the EA Sports FC video game for the first time ever following her move from China to the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) in the United States. However, an overall rating of only 77 seems like an injustice given that she is one of the best women’s players in the world. Alongside being the fastest to score 10 NWSL career goals, the Copper Queens striker became the first player to score a treble of hat-tricks at the Summer Olympics.
1. Racheal Kundananji (Overall Rating: 83)
Kundananji maintains her status as the highest-rated Zambian player, male or female, in the EA Sports FC video game series. With a pace of 91, physicality of 87, dribbling of 85, and shooting of 82, she will definitely be a popular choice among the video game users.
