However, the Span international has found his way back into the first team and was a key part of City's 2021-22 title winning season, earning the FC 25 Coins player an 86 rating.
Following a lengthy spell at Paris Saint-Germain, where he became recognized as one of the world's best central defenders, Thiago Silva made his way to the Premier League. The veteran defender wasted little time adjusting to the English division at Chelsea and is today considered, even at the age of 37. to be one of the league's very best center backs.
Thiago Silva has some of the best defensive stats in the game, though his 52 Acceleration and 54 Sprint Speed will likely put some players off the Brazilian in Ultimate Team.
For many years, Kalidou Koulibaly was linked with almost every top European side. The Senegalese has long been rated as one of the best central defenders in the world; though, despite all the interest, no club decided to bite the bullet and pay the huge sum that Napoli was asking for, which was believed to be around £80m at one point. However, after the hype, and subsequently, his price came down, Chelsea decided to sign the player and ended up securing him from Napoli for a figure reported to be around 33m.
Koulibaly's career at Chelsea hasn't got off to the best start, though there's plenty of belief that he will soon find his footing and become a solid addition to the London side's back line.
One of the main reasons why Chelsea signed the aforementioned Koulibaly was because of Antonio Rudiger's move to Real Madrid. A starting EA Sports FC Coins player for Chelsea moving to Madrid would usually suggest that a huge amount of money had been spent; though, unfortunately for Chelsea, they received nothing for Rudiger's departure, as his contract had expired. The loss of Rudiger was a huge blow for Chelsea as the German defender had been one of the league's best center-backs under Thomas Tuchel.
