The Frenchman has had a miserable time with injuries off-late but remains supremely influential when he is on the pitch. Despite receiving an overall single point downgrade from FIFA 20, Kante remains the best CDM in the Premier League in FIFA 21 and is one of the purest clean tacklers in the entire game.


CAM - Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United, 87)

Bruno Fernandes was the man who changed Manchester United's fortunes mid-way through the season. The 'Portuguese Magnifico' has been stellar at Old Trafford since his January move, scoring eight and assisting seven in 14 Premier League appearances last season.

He has established himself as one of the best attacking-midfielders in the world and has received a double ratings boost to boast an overall FIFA 21 rating of 87.


CAM - Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City, 91)

Sadio Mane received a well deserved +2 overall upgrade in FIFA 21 for his exploits during Liverpool's title-winning campaign. The 28-year old was prolific in front of goal, netting 18 times and creating a further nine.

The new edition also saw the Senegalese breaking into the top ten best players list for the first time.


ST - Sergio Aguero (Manchester City, 89)

Sergio Aguero has been terrorizing Premier League defenses for nearly a decade and is now firmly in the conversation to be the one of the Premier League's greatest ever forwards. Manchester City's record goalscorer had an injury-plagued 19/20 campaign but still managed to score 16 goals and provide three assists in 18 starts for the Cityzens.

EA has retained his 89 ratings from the previous edition, making the Argentine the best striker in the Premier League in FIFA 21.
