FIFA 15: 10 New Premier League Transfers Who Should Be Rated Highest
8. Bafetimbi Gomis 82 (FIFA 14 81)
The addition of Bafetimbi Gomis to play alongside Wilfried Bony is a thought that will likely console any Swansea fans who were mourning the departure of the once-great Michu to Napoli on loan (provided of course that the Swans can stop Liverpool pinching Bony). Gomis and Bony are very much strikers cut from the same cloth both extremely athletic, fast and powerful with a reliable finish. A squad spearheaded by the Ivorian and the Frenchman playing side-by-side would devastate even the staunchest of defenses, both in real life and in FIFA. After a solid final season at Lyon, Gomis may even receive a marginal statistical upgrade on FIFA 15. Indeed the striker who scored 22 goals in all competitions last season currently only has a strength rating of 75 when he is known to be a player capable of standing his ground against even the most gigantic of centre backs. Reports from Swanseas preseason games indicate that the 29-year-old has looked sharp so far, making dangerous runs and showing excellent movement off the ball. The man signed on a free transfer from Lyon could be a huge asset to the Welsh side next season.
