Cristiano Ronaldo’s decline down the EA FC ratings continues with the once 94-rated now down at 84, meaning there is a whole load of players now ‘better’ than him according to the game company.
While he continues his quest to reach 1,000 goals, Ronaldo’s time at the top of world football is undoubtedly over and in terms of his EA FC rating, he has been on a steady decline for some time now.
FIFA 20 was the start of the downward spiral with Ronaldo beginning to descend from his 94 rating and he lost one point every year until FIFA 23 when he sharply fell to 87.
The FC era began with Ronaldo rated 86 and he slipped to 85 for both FC 25 and 26. Now, with the new game launched, Ronaldo has again dropped to 84, meaning there is a long list of players ranked higher.
Here’s who is ahead of the Portuguese winger, including a certain Argentine at No.15…
