Salah, Mbappe, Benzema: Ballon d’Or favourites' FIFA 23 stats compared

FIFA 23 is less than a fortnight away from being released, with gamers eager to get their hands on the new title in EA Sports’ hit football simulator.

Ratings have been released for the new game for a vast majority of the big hitters on the game, adding to the excitement for the new game finally being released.

Mohamed Salah, Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema are the three favourites for this year’s Ballon d’Or, so let’s see how they compare on EA Sports’ new game.

Unsurprisingly, Mbappe tops the pace charts as the fastest player on the game, with a controller-breaking 97. The Egyptian King is still in with the pacey players with 90 pace, but Benzema trails behind with just 80.

There’s very little in it when it comes to shooting, with just one point separating the three. Mbappe and Salah boast 89 shooting each on the new game, with Benzema just behind on 88.

It’s the exact same story with finishing, with 93 a piece for the pacey forwards, and Benzema just off the two again with 92. Either way, most shots with any of this trio should be finding the onion bag.

During his time at Liverpool, Salah has built a reputation for scoring all types of goals, including long rage screamers, so it’s no shock to see him ahead of the other two here.

Benzema takes top spot for his creativity, with Salah’s plethora of assists last season only seeing him given 82 passing compared to the 83 Benzema boasts. His compatriot has 80, which is the lowest attacking based stat between the three.

All three are known for their ridiculous goal scoring prowess, so to
