Top 10 Real Faces in EA SPORTS FC Online, NOT in EA FC 25

EA SPORTS FC 25 delivers stunning realism, but some fan-favorite players with authentic face scans in EA SPORTS FC Online didn’t make the cut this year.

These omissions leave fans wondering why these stars—ranging from rising talents to key squad players—are stuck with generic faces.

Let’s dive into the top 10 real faces absent from EA SPORTS FC 25 but shining in EA SPORTS FC Online, and why their exclusion stings for immersion-loving gamers.

Players in Deep Dive

#10 Zeki Çelik

• Club: Roma
• League: Serie A
• Position: Right Back (RB)
• Overall Rating: 76
• Potential: 76

The Turkish right-back has been a reliable presence for Roma, blending defensive grit with overlapping runs. His absence as a real face is puzzling, especially given Roma’s prominence in Serie A. Çelik’s gritty playing style and distinctive appearance would’ve added depth to Serie A’s visual authenticity.

#09 Giovanni Simeone

• Club: Napoli
• League: Serie A
• Position: Striker (ST)
• Overall Rating: 76
• Potential: 76

A super-sub hero for Napoli, Simeone’s clutch goals and fiery passion make him a fan favorite. His FC Online real face captures his intensity, but FC 25’s generic version strips away the charisma that defines his on-pitch persona. A missed opportunity for drama-loving Career Mode players.

#08 Mathías Olivera

• Club: Napoli
• League: Serie A
• Position: Left Back (LB)
• Overall Rating: 77
• Potential: 78

Olivera’s tenacity at left-back has been crucial for Napoli’s defense. With a face scan that highlights his determined demeanor, his generic FC 25 faces feels bland. For a player growing into Serie A’s elite, the lack of realism undersells his rising profile.

#07 Matteo Politano

• Club: Napoli
• League: Serie A
• Position: Right Wing (RW)
• Overall Rating: 80
• Potential: 80

Politano’s technical flair and curling strikes make him a Serie A standout. His FC Online face scan mirrors his slick style, but FC 25’s placeholder model fails to reflect his sharp features. At 80 overall, he’s no fringe player—he deserves better.

#06 Matheus Nunes

• Club: Manchester City
• League: Premier League
• Position: Central Attacking Midfielder (CAM)
• Overall Rating: 78
• Potential: 80

Matheus Nunes has been turning heads with his playmaking abilities. The online game highlights his vision and passing range, making him a key figure in orchestrating attacks. His digital portrayal underlines the finesse that defines his real-world performances.

#05 Aleksandr Golovin

• Club: AS Monaco
• League: Ligue 1
• Position: Left Midfielder (LM)
• Overall Rating: 80
• Potential: 80

The Russian playmaker is Monaco’s creative heartbeat. Golovin’s real face in FC Online exudes his calm elegance, making FC 25’s generic version feel like a downgrade. For a top-tier Ligue 1 talent, this omission is a visual disservice.

#04 Carlos Augusto

• Club: Inter
• League: Serie A
• Position: Left Midfielder (LM)
• Overall Rating: 80
• Potential: 81

Carlos Augusto’s robust playing style and knack for delivering crucial passes are accentuated by his realistic portrayal. His presence in EA SPORTS FC Online is a reminder that sometimes, the most underrated players provide the biggest impact on the game.

#03 Bryan Gil

• Club: Girona FC
• League: La Liga
• Position: Central Attacking Midfielder (CAM)
• Overall Rating: 79
• Potential: 83

Once dubbed “The Next Andrés Iniesta,” Gil’s loan spells have kept him under the radar—but his 83 potential screams future star. His FC Online face reflects his youthful flair, while FC 25’s generic model makes him just another prospect. A real face would’ve boosted his hype.

#02 Pierre Kalulu

• Club: Juventus
• League: Serie A
• Position: Centre Back (CB)
• Overall Rating: 79
• Potential: 85

Kalulu’s move to Juventus could be career-defining. With 85 potential, he’s a future defensive stalwart. His FC Online scan highlights his composure, but FC 25’s version lacks detail. For a player destined to anchor backlines, this feels like a glaring oversight.

#01 Hugo Ekitiké

• Club: Eintracht Frankfurt
• League: Bundesliga
• Position: Striker (ST)
• Overall Rating: 79
• Potential: 85

Topping the list is Ekitiké, a striker with explosive pace and 85 potential. His FC Online real face mirrors his electric playing style, but FC 25’s generic look dulls his star power. As Frankfurt’s rising talisman, his missing scan is the biggest letdown for Career Mode enthusiasts.
