Summary Africa consistently produces world-class players, even if a player from the continent has won the Ballon d’Or just once.
Mohamed Salah might be added to that list in 2025 and he is the highest-rated African player in EAFC 25.
Victor Osimhen, Riyad Mahrez and Sadio Mane also feature.
Ratings in any game, especially EA Sports FC 25, are always a hot topic of conversation. Players want to be the highest-rated stars in the game, not only highlighting their success in real life but also securing them bragging rights for the coming year. With over 30 leagues in EAFC 25, every player eagerly waits.
In football, South American and European players often take the main accolades, but Africa still produces countless world-class players. George Weah is the only African player to win the Ballon d’Or, but Mohamed Salah might change that in 2025 going by his current form.
We have decided to outline the nine highest-rated African players in EAFC 25, all of whom have impressed on the global stage.

9 Yassine Bounou – 84
Al Hilal and Morocco
Yassine Bounou, despite being 33, broke into the main spotlight in 2022 at the World Cup. Morocco became the first-ever African side to reach the semi-finals, with the goalkeeper excelling throughout the tournament. He was their hero during a shootout victory against Spain, and he followed that up with another impressive performance against Portugal.
While that could have catapulted him towards a career at one of the best clubs in the world, Bounou opted to move to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. He is still 84-rated and can perform at the highest level, but you’re only going to consider using him in EAFC 25 if you want a ‘fully Saudi Pro League’ side.
