Who are the best players in the world? FIFA 23 ratings revealed

As is always one of the most exciting things this time of year, the first sets of FIFA 23 player ratings have been revealed.

The biggest news in terms of FIFA 23 player ratings is that Karim Benzema is now the highest-rated player.

This is a huge upgrade for him, seeing him rise 13 places from being 14th last year.

Other big FIFA 23 player rating news is that both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have seen huge downgrades.

Messi is now the 5th highest-rated player, while Ronaldo is 8th. Honestly, though, we’d say that makes Ronaldo a little overrated, the guy can’t even get into United’s team!
