Breaking news: Kekuta Manneh is fast. Like, really fast.
With the launch of FIFA 16 fast approaching, EA Sports has started releasing some of the new game’s player ratings. Today, they unveiled a list of the 20 fastest players in the game. And for the second straight year, Manneh came in at ninth overall with a 94 pace rating.
The 20-year-old Whitecaps FC winger is tied with Montreal’s Domenic Oduro and San Jose’s Innocent Emeghara as the fastest MLS players in the game. Interestingly, Manneh also has the same pace rating as Welsh star Gareth Bale and is just two points shy of Theo Walcott and Mathis Bolly, who top the list.
Here’s a look at Manneh’s player card for FIFA 16.
And here’s his card from last year.
As you can see, his overall rating (69) has improved eight points. His pace rating is the same, but every other feature has improved. So far this season, Manneh has a team-leading six assists to go along with six goals (which matches his career high).
