Top 27 Ratings

On 17 August 2026 EA published the official Top 27 men’s and women’s overalls for EA SPORTS FC 27. This page is that snapshot: licensed launch ratings for Kick-Off and the likely Football Ultimate Team base items. It is not a live Weekend League ladder, not a leaked 99 roster, and not Career form after a ten-game heater.

Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland share the men’s 91 ceiling. Alexia Putellas keeps the women’s 91. The 90s and 89s underneath are crowded — Paris Saint-Germain flood the men’s list; Barcelona still dominate the women’s 89s even after Putellas left for London City Lionesses. Treat every number here as a printed overall until a mode tells you otherwise.

For how to read Pace, PlayStyles, PlayStyle+, and roles, use player ratings. For legends, use the Class of ‘27 ICONs. For whether a 91 striker even fits your shape, use the Tier List Hub. Club-building lives in Ultimate Team; save-game movement lives in Career Mode.

FUT printed OVR versus Career Dynamic OVR

FUT printed OVR is the digit on the item. A base 91 Mbappé stays 91 until EA upgrades that card or you run an Evolution. Chemistry, roles, and PlayStyles change how it plays in online multiplayer; they do not silently rewrite the number because you won five Rivals games.

Career Dynamic OVR starts from the same licensed baseline, then moves with form, morale, match fitness, and injury. A 90 Pedri on a heater can play above this graphic. The same player benched or carrying a knock can drop. That system does not touch your FUT club.

Kick-Off uses the licensed snapshot with neither chemistry nor Dynamic OVR. If a thumbnail treats a Career overall as a FUT meta ranking, ignore it. The tables below are the 17 August 2026 licensed snapshot EA showed.

Men’s Top 27 (official, 17 August 2026)

EA’s men’s graphic is a 91–88 band. Bayern appear through Kane, Olise, Kimmich, and Luis Díaz. Real Madrid hold the cover star plus Courtois, Bellingham, and Vinícius Jr. Manchester City place Haaland, Rodri, and Donnarumma.

91 overall

PlayerPosClubNotes
Kylian MbappéSTReal MadridPace 96 — fastest published on the graphic
Erling HaalandSTManchester City91, up from 90

Mbappé’s 96 pace is the headline speed number on the reveal. It is a Kick-Off / FUT-base figure. Career match fitness can still put a floor under that sprint. Haaland’s jump from 90 to 91 is the other half of the shared ceiling. They are not ranked one-two by a tie-breaker; they share 91 with different attribute shapes.

Olise’s +4 is the standout men’s riser EA called out in the same article. Bellingham’s 90 is a licensed snapshot, not a promise every FUT special stays there.

Messi’s jump from 86 to 89 is the World Cup bump EA tied to the reveal. It is still a licensed snapshot, not a FUT campaign item. Donnarumma is listed at Manchester City on this graphic.

Luis Díaz is listed at Bayern Munich on EA’s graphic — the club as published, not a leftover Liverpool item. That closes the men’s twenty-seven. Do not pad this table with a fictional 87 band and call it Top 27.

Women’s ratings EA actually showed

Alexia Putellas remains 91 after leaving Barcelona for London City Lionesses. Aitana Bonmatí is 90 at Barcelona. Khadija Shaw is 90 ST at Manchester City. EA also highlighted Yui Hasegawa +3 and Hannah Hampton +3, and listed Alessia Russo at 88 (down from 89).

EA published the full women’s 27 on official graphics on 17 August 2026. This page does not invent the remaining overalls beyond the names and movers listed above. If a content creator fills every 87 slot from memory, check EA’s graphic rather than this table.

Putellas at London City Lionesses is the club change people miss. A Barcelona chemistry plan that still assumes she wears blaugrana is a FUT mistake, not a ratings debate.

Full base database — 10 September 2026

EA followed the Top 27 with the full base database and PlayStyles on 10 September 2026. The 17 August graphic is the ceiling club, not every gold in the game. Face stats, PlayStyles, PlayStyle+, and roles for the wider 21,000+ pool belong to that later dump. If a card you care about is not in the Top 27, look at the 10 September database, not at a guessed 84.

Special FUT items above these licensed numbers arrive through campaigns after early access begins on 18 September 2026. This page will not invent a 99 roster. Worldwide launch remains 25 September 2026. Online multiplayer will use these base items in FUT until the first live specials land.

How to use the Top 27 before you play

  1. Learn the 91 club: Mbappé, Haaland, Putellas.
  2. Remember the movers EA actually called out: Olise +4, Haaland 90→91, Messi 86→89, Russo 89→88, Hasegawa +3, Hampton +3.
  3. Separate FUT print from Career Dynamic OVR before you watch a ratings video. Career Mode is the one that moves; Ultimate Team prints the card.
  4. Pair roles with the Tier List Hub, not with a single overall. A 91 striker on the wrong role is a different footballer from the same overall on Advanced Forward.
  5. When the full client opens, trust the item in your club over any pre-launch graphic — including this one if a squad update has already landed.

ICONs are a separate track. Christine Sinclair’s Champion 91 sits next to this live 91 club in marketing, but she is not on the Top 27 live list. Keep Class of ‘27 ICONs and this page in different mental folders.

This wiki is unofficial. Confirm face stats on the card in your club.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Launch week answers on editions, The Grounds, Career, and Ultimate Team.

Who are the highest-rated players in FC 27?

On EA's 17 August 2026 Top 27, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland share 91 on the men's list. Alexia Putellas leads the women's list at 91. Licensed live ratings shown so far do not go to 99.

Did Haaland and Olise go up?

Yes. Haaland is 91, up from 90. Michael Olise is 90 after a +4 rise. Mbappé's published pace on the graphic is 96, the fastest number EA highlighted there.

Is Messi really 89 in FC 27?

EA listed Lionel Messi at 89 CAM for Inter Miami, up from 86, and tied that jump to the World Cup. It is a licensed snapshot for Kick-Off, Career baseline, and the likely FUT base item — not a campaign special.

Does Career Mode lock these overalls?

No. Career uses Dynamic OVR, which can rise or fall with form, morale, match fitness, and injury. FUT keeps the printed overall on that item until EA upgrades the card or you Evolution it. See player ratings for the full distinction.

When did the rest of the ratings and PlayStyles come out?

EA published the full base database with PlayStyles on 10 September 2026, after the 17 August Top 27. The remaining women's Top 27 names are on EA's official graphics; this page does not invent those overalls.
