FIFA 15: 10 Highest-Rated Premier League Players Leaked

10. Diego Costa (86)

Diego Costa is one of two Chelsea stars to make FIFA 15's top 10 highest-rated Premier League players list. The striker has just been signed from Atletico Madrid this summer and is already showing signs he is capable of replicating his amazing goal-scoring record in Spain during his stay in England's topflight. Costa netted an incredible 27 goals in 35 La Liga appearances last season as he helped Atletico win their first Spanish title since 1996 while he also helped his side reach the final of the Champions League. His fine performances have yielded an upgrade from the 83 he was awarded in predecessor FIFA 14, according to the leaks, with the Blues striker jumping up to 86. We think this is pretty reasonable considering Costa was one of the most prolific forwards in Europe last season and he has already started showing signs that his new score in EA's football simulation series is justified by scoring on his debut for Chelsea in their Premier League win against newly-promoted Burnley last weekend.
