Borussia Dortmund's FIFA 22 ratings have officially been revealed, with Erling Haaland the main attraction, of course!
The Norweigan makes BVB an incredibly popular choice on FIFA 22, so here's how the side is rated on the new game.
Latest - The games begin
Borussia Dortmund players Nico Schulz, Julian Brandt and Mahmoud Dahoud were put to the test in a game where they had to guess their BVB teammate judging from their FIFA 22 stats.
All in all, they did pretty well, managing to guess all of the cards they were presented with.
When shown Erling Haaland's card, Shulz said his 88 physicality should definitely be higher, with Dahoud interjecting saying his physicality should be 99!
The Dortmund boys also felt that Marco Reus' 47 defending stat was very harsh.
Erling Haaland (OVR 84 → 88)
It was just the 41 goals in 41 games for Erling Haaland last season, teleporting him into the "world class" remit at the age of just 21.
The striker will cause havoc on FIFA 22 with his 89 pace, 91 shooting and 88 physicality, but his link-up play is the missing piece, with just 65 passing.
Mats Hummels (OVR 86 → 86)
Dortmund do score plenty, but they also have a habit of shipping a few at their own end, and having Mats Hummels marshalling the defence is crucial.
Still only 32, the club legend will look to claim one final Bundesliga title, like he did wit the club in 2011 & 2012.
Marco Reus (OVR 85 → 85)
Marco Reus has had his injury troubles in recent seasons, but after a whopping 49 fixtures last term, the German international may now be building some for.
The 73 Pace stat on his FIFA 22 card may not be what it once was, but with 85 dribbling, 84 shooting and 84 passing, the 32-year-old still possesses plenty of quality on the ball.
Raphael Guerreiro (OVR 84 → 84)
An under-appreciated player, Raphael Guerreiro holds on to an 84 rating on FIFA 22.
The Portuguese chalked up 11 assists and five goals in the Bundesliga, showing his influence on the team.
Axel Witsel (OVR 84 → 83)
Axel Witsel has been a serious force in BVB's midfield since he joined the club in 2018, pulling the shirt over 100 times in that time.
An Achilles injury ruled out the Belgian for the vast majority of last season, and the 32-year-old will be keen to show he's still got plenty left in the tank this term.
Emre Can (OVR 82 → 82)
Emre Can has been alternating between midfield and defence in recent years for Borussia Dortmund, which you can see from the all-around quality of his FUT 22 card.
Now 27, the time has come for the former Liverpool and Juventus man to fulfil his potential and boss midfield battles week-in, week-out.
Thorgan Hazard (OVR 83 → 82)
After seven goals and 13 assists in the 19/20 Bundesliga, Belgian international managed Thorga Hazard just one goal and for assists last term - which explains his OVR drop.
The 28-year-old can still be impressive on his day, but another tricky season could see him looking for a new club.
Julian Brandt (OVR 84 → 81)
In his final season at Bayer Leverkusen, Julian Brandt chalked up 10 goals and 17 assists - in 90 appearances for Borussia Dortmund, the German has just 12 goals and 15 assists.
Something needs to change for Brandt, who was brought in to bring BVB closer to Bayern Munich - but he is yet to string together quality performances.
Roman Burki (OVR 84 → 80)
A disappointing season for Roman Burki last term, and they don't come much bigger than a -4 downgrade.
In 19 Bundesliga games, the Swiss conceded 30 goals and kept just four clean sheets - and as a result, hasn't featured at all this term.
Donyell Malen (OVR 78 → 80)
Borussia Dortmund's new recruit and we expect Donyell Malen's to become the premier striker at the club... once Erling Haaland departs next summer.
The Dutch international bagged 28 goals in all competitions for PSV Eindhoven last term, earning him a £29 million move to the Bundesliga.
