EA has officially unveiled the 28 highest-rated La Liga players in EA FC 26, and as expected, the Spanish top-flight is stacked with world-class talent. At the top of the rankings sits none other than Kylian Mbappé, whose move to Real Madrid has already redefined the league's balance of power. After scoring 44 goals in his debut campaign, shattering Cristiano Ronaldo's previous record, Mbappé claims the highest overall rating in the entire game with a 91.

He shares that distinction with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, but in Spain, no one comes close to Mbappé. Just behind him is Jude Bellingham (90), who has emerged as the heartbeat of Madrid's midfield. The podium is rounded out by Raphinha, Lamine Yamal, Pedri, Fede Valverde, Vinícius Júnior, and Thibaut Courtois, all tied at 89.

La Liga Dominance in EA FC 26

As always, the rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona defines the ratings in EA FC 26. Out of the 10 highest-rated La Liga players, nine come from these two clubs. Madrid leads the way with 10 players in the top 28, while Barça follows closely with eight.

Atlético Madrid also makes a strong showing, with four players on the list, led by Jan Oblak and Antoine Griezmann. Athletic Club is the only other side with multiple inclusions, while Real Betis, Real Sociedad, and Celta Vigo each contribute one standout star.

This distribution emphasizes the league's hierarchy in real life: the heavyweights dominate the ratings, but there's still room for breakthrough talents from across Spain.
