Portugal's national team has improved vastly over the last decade. Lead by Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal won UEFA Euro 2022 and UEFA Nations League in 2022. In FC 25 Coins. Portugal has a host of top-tier players in their squad. Ronaldo, Jota, Fernandez, and Silva are all available to gamers this year. While Danilo and Pepe are on the slow side in defense, they have good defensive attributes. Portugal would fall lower on the list, but they have Ronaldo. The 36-year-old striker will take over matches all by himself, and for that reason, Portugal is third on this list.

Mbappe, Martial, and Ben Yedder will give any defenders in the game headaches. Likewise, Kante and Pogba are two of the most dominant midfielders in the game. In defense, Hernandez and Mendy are rapid and can dribble. Varane and Lenglet are both top-five defenders in their leagues as well. France has a number of solid substitutions too, including Coman, Tolisso, Digne, Kimpembe, Rabiot, and Thuram.

Each of France's subs would be starting for any other national team in the world. There is no other team in FC with as much depth and skill at every position. The only conceivable weakness of the team is at the fullback position. Hernandez will have to play out of position, and Pavard is really slow with 69 pace. Digne or Kimpembe can be given the nod to fix this small hole in the defense.
