In FIFA games, as in real-life, Strikers and Center Forwards are some of the most sought-after players. In FIFA, having someone reliable who can convert any potential chances to goals is key to winning more games.

EA just revealed the player ratings for FIFA 21 and fans are excited to open up packs in FUT and hopefully land a few Gold Cards and some of the highest-rated players in the game.

While FUT has always been one of the most popular game modes in FIFA, players shouldn't overlook the Career Mode. Signing a quality ST or CF goes a long way in not just the overall rating of the team, but also bolster its value in terms of merch sales and the like.

These are 5 of the highest-rated Strikers and Center Forwards in FIFA.

As it stands, at 89 OVR, Karim Benzema is one of the best Center Forwards in FIFA 21.
