Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has been named the best winger in EA Sports' FIFA 21 video game.

Ahead of the release of the new version in October, the 33-year-old retains the honour from FIFA 20 - despite dropping in overall rating from 94 to 93.

Neymar has again been named in second position, but the Paris Saint-Germain attacker has also taken a hit in his overall score, with it falling one point to 91.

Emphasising the potency of Liverpool's attack, Reds duo Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are both equal third with a score of 90 - retaining their ratings from FIFA 20.

After a struggling debut season at Real Madrid, Eden Hazard has dropped from third in the last FIFA game to equal-fifth, with his overall rating being chopped by a whopping three points to 88.

Joining Hazard in fifth is Manchester City flyer Raheem Sterling, while four stars - PSG's Angel Di Maria, Dortmund's Jadon Sancho, Tottenham's Son Heung-min and Man City's Bernardo Silva - are ranked equal-seventh on 87.

Five players are ranked equal-11th with a score of 85, including Bayern duo Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sane, Man City's Riyad Mahrez, Man Utd's Marcus Rashford and Lazio's Lorenzo Insigne.
