Perhaps in an effort to mimic Real Madrid's success with Luka Modric, Barcelona signed their own immensely talented Croatian midfielder in the summer of 2014. Rakitic's impact has been immediate; he played most games of the 2014/15 La Liga campaign and even scored the opening goal in the Champions League final, finishing off a characteristically astonishing team move with confidence. Rakitic falls some way behind his Real Madrid countryman, who was revealed to be Los Blancos' second-highest rated player in FIFA 16. The former Sevilla man is some way short of Modric's 88 rating, but is still recognised as a key creative component in that talented Barcelona midfield.
