EA Sports FC 25follows the same promo card format as previous years, offering constant upgrades tosome of the best players in EA FC 25.As such, we take a look at some of the best passers as things stand in the promo landscape, but you’re able to expect many of these players to remain relevant throughout the year.
While Passing styles vary on a case-by-case basis, these players boast the strongest Passing ratings thus far and might receive additional Passing PlayStyles throughout the year, which may improve the card further. For now, the best passers are clear, and some unlikely surprises await.
Icons and Heroes are not included.
Two Stars
Five Stars
Martin Odegaard starts strong as one of the best passers in EA Sports FC 25, boasting a solid 89 Passing attribute that makes him one of the best gold cards in the game.
Unfortunately,Odegaard’s two-star weak foot is a massive weaknessthat makes his passing much worse with his right foot. Five-star Skill Moves are a nice help for getting Odegaard into good positions, but he may lack the quality necessary if he’s not on his left foot.
Four Stars
Lionel Messi isthe best Argentinian player in Ultimate Teamand stands tall with an excellent Total Rush promo upgrade.
Unlike Odegaard, Messi’s weak foot is almost perfect, and you shouldn’t notice much of a difference when he’s forced onto his right foot.
Messi’s price is prohibitive, but his 90 Passing makes him one of the best options to set up his teammates for easy tap-in goals, while Messi draws attention to the right wing.
Three Stars
Who would’ve expected an 85-rated free objective player to boast a Passing attribute that equals the great Lionel Messi? However, while Parejo’s card is good, he can’t equal Messi’s overall quality, but he’s surprisingly similar when it comes to free kicks.
Messi boasts slightly better Free Kick Accuracy at 95 compared to Parejo’s 92, but it’s unthinkable that a card given out for free can offer so many impressive similarities to one of the best cards in the game.
One Star
If you thought Parejo was a surprise, then seeing a goalie on this list might be a shocker, but a closer look at Neuer’s PlayStyle Plus offers a clear indication of his passing prowess.
With the Pinged Pass PlayStyle Plus,Neuer improves his exceptional 90 Kicking even further and adds the standard Long Ball Plus PlayStyle to his list of surprising qualities. Neuer is hailed as a game-changer for the goalkeeper position, and this card pays accurate respect to his contributions.
While Parejo and Neuer were unusual additions, they’re both easily surpassed by one ofthe best Spanish players in EA FC 25Ultimate Team, Alexia Putellas.
91 Passing is incredible, but it improves thanks to Putellas' access to the Pinged Pass, Incisive Pass, and Tiki Taka PlayStyles.
While she can do so much more than just lay the ball off to her teammates, Putellas’s Total Rush card is sure to remainone of the most meta cards for the rest of this year.
From one of the top Spanish players toone of England’s best players in FC 25,Trent Alexander-Arnold’s Total Rush card surpasses Putellas' Passing abilities thanks to his access to theWhipped Pass PlayStyle Plus.
In addition to his PlayStyle Plus, Trent also boasts Incisive Pass and Long Ball Pass to ensure he can find the open player in time to create a chance. Considering his position, this is an excellent card to surprise opponents with your accurate passes.
Ederson claims the crown as the best passing goalkeeper in EA FC 25, thanks to hisLong Ball Pass PlayStyle Plus,and Pinged Pass PlayStyle that enhances every ball that Ederson sends flying toward his striker.
While his weak foot isn’t as good as Manuel Neuer’s, Ederson compensates thanks to an extra point in his Kicking andthe ideal PlayStyle Plusfor a goalkeeper who passes. If you want your goalkeeper to catalyze your offense, few are as good as Ederson.
When it comes to Passing, there aren’t any better players in the world than Kevin De Bruyne. Manchester City’s captain and talisman distinguished himself from the pack with an unthinkable95 Passing attribute– something you usually don’t see until later promos.
While his price almost guarantees that many of us won’t ever have the chance to buy Kevin De Bruyne off the market, he’s an unbelievably good card, if you may afford him or are lucky enough to pack him.
