EA Sports has confirmed the highest-rated under-21 team on FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, featuring Jadon Sancho, Phil Foden and Erling Haaland.
EA Sports confirmed the highest-rated Premier League players in FIFA 22 earlier this month, ahead of the game's UK and worldwide release date of Friday October 1, 2021, with Manchester United winger Sancho featuring in the top 20 Premier League players.
EA has now released the highest-rated team of players aged under-21, with six Premier League players featuring in the side along with promising young talents from Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid.
Whilst these players may not be similarly rated to the likes of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe, EA has a history of releasing promotion events throughout the year that could see these players receive huge rating boosts and find their way into your FIFA Ultimate Team.
Chelsea, Man United and Arsenal all have one player included in the highest-rated under 21 XI, whilst Man City have two players representing them, following their Premier League success last year.
Here is the confirmed EA Sports FIFA 22 highest-rated under-21 XI.
