Top Players
It was a phenomenal season for Real Madrid, with Ancelotti's side capturing the league title and the Champions League.
Thanks to the thrilling performances of stars like Karim Benzema, Real Madrid had one of the most memorable runs to the Champions League title ever, with Vinicius Junior tapping home to secure glory.
In FIFA 23, the Champions of Europe will see some major stars feature in their ranks, with their top-rated players being:
Karim Benzema (OVR 91)
Karim Benzema has been handed a huge rating boost in FIFA 23 following an exceptional season with Real Madrid.
The French striker is in with a great shout of winning the Ballon d'Or, with the once-forgotten striker emerging from the shadows to solidify his status as one of the best to ever wear the Real Madrid jersey.
Thibaut Courtois (OVR 90)
Thibaut Courtois is a real unsung hero in the goalkeeper debate, but he proved last season that he's certainly one of the best in the world.
Coming up big when it mattered most, the Belgian shot-stopper is deservedly one of the highest-rated players in the Real Madrid squad, at 90 OVR in FIFA 23.
Toni Kroos (OVR 88)
Toni Kroos keeps plodding along with high ratings in FIFA, with another 88 OVR given to the German.
We're hoping that pace isn't as vital a factor in the upcoming game so that this tempo setter can see the play he deserves.
Transfers
Real Madrid may have missed out on Kylian Mbappe, but they've still grabbed a couple of gems in the transfer market.
Antonio Rudiger and Aurelien Tchouameni have both joined this summer, whilst club legend Casemiro has moved the other way to Manchester United.
With two new recruits certain to improve their starting 11, we think that Rudiger could be the one that changes their prospects in FIFA 23.
With a solid defender at the heart of the team, there's no doubting that Real Madrid is once again a strong contender in Europe this season.
New Signings:
- Antonio Rudiger (OVR 87)
- Aurelien Tchouameni (OVR 82)
Permanent Departures:
- Casemiro (OVR 89)
- Isco (OVR 82)
- Gareth Bale (OVR 82)
- Luka Jovic (OVR 79)
- Marcelo (OVR 79)
- Takefusa Kubo (OVR 75)
- Borja Mayoral (OVR 74)
- Victor Chust (OVR 72)
- Miguel Gutierrez (OVR 67)
Upgrades
A number of Real Madrid players have received upgrades in FIFA 23, with Benzema and Courtois already mentioned.
The most exciting has come to Vinicius Jr., who now boasts an incredible 86 OVR!
New signings Aurelien Tchouameni and Antonio Rudiger have both been handed big boosts too, coming to the side in fantastic form.
Then there is the centre-back pairing David Alaba and Eder Militao, another couple who have been handed upgrades this year.
Downgrades
Despite most Real Madrid players getting bumped up in FIFA 23, one high-profile individual is on the way down.
Former Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has been hit with a -1, taking him to an 84 OVR in FIFA 23 following another injury-ridden season.
That being said, this downgrade is largely due to his lack of playing time and we hope to see the Belgian international bounce back this term.
