The FIFA 23 release date is fast approaching and EA Sports are continuing to tease fans about the new player ratings for the latest edition.
We've already seen the announcement of the best FIFA 23 Premier League players, and now it's the turn of La Liga.
The biggest new star in Spanish football goes by the name of legendary striker Robert Lewandowski — but has the new Barcelona forward done enough to pip Real Madrid's Karim Benzema to the top spot in the La Liga player ratings?
The Sporting News has all the key La Liga ratings you need to know for the upcoming FIFA 23 game.

Who is the best La Liga player on FIFA 23?
This year's edition sees a tie for the award of 'best La Liga player' with Benzema and Lewandowski both given an overall rating of 91.
Veteran striker Benzema is the leading frontrunner for the 2022 Ballon d'Or, due to be announced next month, and it's no surprise his prolific scoring record last season that saw Los Blancos win La Liga and the Champions League, sees him top the FIFA 23 charts.
Lewandowski, who many believe should have won the prestigious award in 2021, delivered the goods for Bayern Munich last year and is now testing himself in La Liga having forced a move to the Nou Camp in the summer.
You're in for a treat 🍬
