Best players for the Defensive Driver Evolution
Here are the best players for this evolution slot:
- Thunderstruck William Saliba
- TOTW Virgil van Dijk
- Flashback João Cancelo
- Winter Wildcards Hero Vincent Kompany
- Grassroots Great N'Golo Kanté
1. William Saliba
With his 6'4 height, the French defender is one of the best in FC 25 with an array of impressive defending PlayStyles and the most important Anticipate PlayStyles+ giving him some broken tackles, adding a second PlayStyles+ to his repertoire with boosted physicals makes him the best pick for this evo.
2. Virgil van Dijk
The Liverpool captain is one of the best defenders in the game due to his physicality and the Aerial PlayStyles+, giving his TOTW version an upgrade and getting him closer to his UCL RTTK version which costs almost twice as much is great value from this evo.
3. João Cancelo
He was one of the top SBCs completed during TOTY due to his great price and a good set of PlayStyles+ with Rapid and Intercept for a fullback, 5-Star Weak Foot and the ability to play on both flanks, the additional PlayStyles and boosts in defending and physicality allows the Portuguese international to catch up to the current power curve.
4. Vincent Kompany
The second evo of the year for the Belgian Hero gives him an incredible second PlayStyles+ and a small stat boost making him more effective against current attackers, if you're in need of a Premier League CB this upgrade is the one for you.
5. N'Golo Kanté
Another popular SBC player who would be a great option for this evo, he is the perfect double-pivot CDM and the boosts from the evo elevate his physical presence in the middle of the park which is honestly the only thing that was keeping him from being elite in EA FC 25.
