Tottenham Hotspur’s Richarlison has not held back on his thoughts on his new FC 25 card, sending a clear X-rated message to the game’s manufacturers.

The new game is officially out on September 27. The ratings for each of the 17,737 players included in the Ultimate Team game mode were confirmed last week, with Richarlison actually getting an increase in last year’s rating.

His overall rating is at 81, one better than his 2024 rating. The striker has been given a 77 for pace, and 80 for shooting, 73 for passing, 80 for dribbling, 53 for defence, and a 78 for physicality, but that is not enough to appease the Brazilian.

Posting a video showing his gold card on his Instagram stories he is heard saying: "Hey FIFA, this is a f****** s*** card, f****** s***." A caption on the video translates to: "Fluent English still," along with the angry and laughing emojis.

Richarlison has made two appearances for Tottenham so far this season, but has missed the last four games in all competitions through injury. Speaking last week, Ange Postecoglou said that the forward was a ‘fair way off’ returning to action .

Last season saw Richarlison score 12 goals and provide four assists in 31 appearances in all competitions, including 11 goals in the Premier League. In the new FC 25 game he is the 10th highest ranked Spurs player.
