This is set to be the final installment under the FIFA name. With that in mind, EA Sports is going all out this year. Not just with new features to the men&#8217;s teams, but also with the female players in the game. The inclusion of women&#8217;s club teams along with the usual national team squads promises to be a game changer in the representation of the world&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n<p>NWSL clubs have not been announced as of yet. So I compiled a list of all the star NWSL FIFA 23 ratings from players representing their national teams using the recently released ratings from the EA Sports website. Despite the lack of official NWSL rosters, eleven of the twelve of the league&#8217;s teams have a playable character in this year&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n<h2>The Star Players&#8217; NWSL FIFA 23 Ratings<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Women&#39;s club football is coming to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FIFA23?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#FIFA23<\/a> and with it, here are the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FIFARatings?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#FIFARatings<\/a> for the top players: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Q6cOkhTsJA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/Q6cOkhTsJA<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/AhGXhO1Tw3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/AhGXhO1Tw3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; EA SPORTS FC (@EASPORTSFC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EASPORTSFC\/status\/1573326438010437633?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 23, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Player Ratings by Team<\/h3>\n<h4>Portland Thorns FC<\/h4>\n<p>Becky Sauerbrunn, Defender, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Sophia Smith, Forward, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Christine Sinclair, Midfielder, Canada, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Janine Beckie, Forward, Canada, 79 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>San Diego Wave FC<\/h4>\n<p>Alex Morgan, Forward, United States, 90 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Abby Dahlkemper, Defender, United States, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Sofia Jakobsson, Midfielder, Sweden, 83 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Kailen Sheridan, Goalkeeper, Canada, 83 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>OL Reign<\/h4>\n<p>Rose Lavelle, Midfielder, United States, 86 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Megan Rapinoe, Forward, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Alana Cook, Defender, United States, 81 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Quinn, Midfielder, Canada, 77 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Jordyn Huitema, Forward, Canada 75 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Jimena Lopez, Defender, Mexico, 74 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Houston Dash<\/h4>\n<p>Jane Campbell, Goalkeeper, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Sophie Schmidt, Midfielder, Canada, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Maria Sanchez, Midfielder, Mexico, 81 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Allysha Chapman, Defender, Canada, 77 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Nichelle Prince, Forward, Canada, 77 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Kansas City Current<\/h4>\n<p>Sam Mewis, Midfielder, United States, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Adrianna Franch, Goalkeeper, United States, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Desiree Scott, Midfielder, Canada, 83 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Lynn Williams, Forward, United States, 82 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Chicago Red Stars<\/h4>\n<p>Alyssa Naeher, Goalkeeper, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Mallory Pugh, Forward, United States, 85 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Angel City FC<\/h4>\n<p>Almuth Schult, Goalkeeper, Germany, 87 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Christen Press, Forward, United States, 86 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Orlando Pride<\/h4>\n<p>Erin McLeod, Goalkeeper, Canada, 79 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Gunnhildur Jonsdottir, Midfielder, Iceland, 74 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Washington Spirit<\/h4>\n<p>Kelley O&#8217;Hara, Defender, United States, 84 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Trinity Rodman, Forward, United States, 82 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Emily Sonnet, Defender, United States, 82 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Andi Sullivan, Midfielder, United States, 81 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>Racing Louisville FC<\/h4>\n<p>Wang Shuang, Forward, China, 81 Overall<\/p>\n<h4>NJ\/NY Gotham FC<\/h4>\n<p>Margaret Purce, Forward, United States, 82 Overall<\/p>\n<p>Kristie Mewis, Midfielder, United States, 78 Overall<\/p>\n<h3>EA Sports and the future of club women&#8217;s soccer<\/h3>\n<p><a id=\"Lz8kt1Q9RSlF8Z10uIurJg\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1414715336\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'Lz8kt1Q9RSlF8Z10uIurJg',sig:'IbgE9QOIvw3824sOf8aVuKEXCyiBKXWLxtKz0qpOoHc=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1414715336',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<p>EA Sports has said they hope to add additional women&#8217;s leagues potentially this year. For now, this serves as a reminder of the level of talent in NWSL. From the seventh highest rated player in America, Alex Morgan (who <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/soccer\/2022\/09\/13\/dramatic-weekend-in-nwsl\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">scored two goals earlier this month against the Washington Spirit<\/a>), to the many international talents making a living playing in the United States. Hopefully, we will be getting full rosters sooner rather than later. But for now, the inclusion of British and French club teams makes me think more gamers will begin watching women&#8217;s leagues in reality.<\/p>\n<p>FIFA 23 comes out on September 30th.
