Without spoiling things too much, Kalidou Koulibaly is the highest overall rated player featured on this list.

Given an overall rating of 89 in FIFA 20, Koulibaly is one of the very best defenders in the game and will be a go-to signing in both Career Mode and Ultimate Team.

Of course, the 6’2” Senegal international has long been a favourite of FIFA players, with his power, speed, and defensive prowess marking him out as an essential part of any successful team.

Koulibaly’s pace may have dipped slightly on FIFA 20, yet his other stats are incredible. For strength, there’s a 95 rating, marking clocks in at 91, standing tackle gets a 90, interceptions ranks at 88, and sliding tackle and aggression both hit 87.

For FIFA players looking for a world class centre-back who is physical and aggressive, Kalidou Koulibaly is your man. But then again, if you’ve played any of the most recent FIFAs, you’ll already be well aware of that.
