In FIFA 25, having a tall player can potentially increase your chances of scoring via headers. However, tall players tend to be slower, so you can be risky if you rely solely on them in attack. Additionally, these tall players may have difficulty catching up to and stopping faster opposition strikers because of their limited movement speed.

To take full advantage of tall players in soccer, the best strategy is to pair these tall players with faster players. This ensures that your team can still maintain an advantage when facing a fast attack or defense from the opposing team. Since most tall players are goalkeepers, this is not an interesting position to consider height, and has been excluded from this guide.

10. Aleksander Vukotic

• Height: 6’7" (201cm)
• Position: CB
• Nationality: Serbia
• Overall: 70

The 30-year-old Serbian defender may not have an advantage in terms of age. But for those clubs with limited budgets who want to increase the average height of their team, Vukotic is particularly suitable. He has a physical rating of 82 points, which is very rare for a player with an overall rating of only around 70 points.

Specifically, his jumping rating is 74, and his heading accuracy is 77 points, showing his advantage in high-altitude battles. However, what is really impressive is his Strength of 95, which not only gives him an upper hand in confrontation, but also means that he can better control the ball and reduce his turnover rate even in the face of frequent physical contact.

9. Paul Ebere Onuachu

• Height: 6’7" (201cm)
• Position: ST
• Nationality: Nigeria
• Overall: 76

Onuachu stands out with his highest overall rating, especially in shooting skills. The Nigerian striker shows extraordinary ability in aerial duels, mainly thanks to his 87 Heading Accuracy and 82 Jumping rating.

This combination of skills makes Onuachu a reliable Target Forward who can patiently wait for his teammates to pass from the wing and complete the fatal blow at the critical moment. Whether dealing with corner kicks or free kicks, he can cause great threats to the opponent and become a nightmare for the opponent’s defense.

8. Marcus Dackers

• Height: 6’7" (201cm)
• Position: ST
• Nationality: Wales
• Overall: 56

Perhaps the least-anticipated player, Dackers is not an ideal option even for teams with limited budgets and from the bottom tiers of European leagues. Despite his height advantage, Dackers’ jumping ability is only 73 and his heading accuracy is a low 58. For players interested in trying new tactics or finding potential players, you can add him to your team for very few FUT 25 Coins and give this tall defender a chance to prove himself.

7. Jamie Lawrence

• Height: 6’7" (201cm)
• Position: CB
• Nationality: Germany
• Overall: 66

While Jamie Lawrence’s stats may not be impressive, his height advantage makes up for it to a certain extent. Lawrence has a 72 jumping ability and 70 heading accuracy, making him a decent option defensively, especially for teams with limited budgets that need to add height to their back line.

Despite being the same height as Vukotic, he is only 22 years old and has plenty of opportunities to improve his numbers through season training.

6. Skelly Alvero

• Height: 6’8" (202cm)
• Position: CDM
• Nationality: France
• Overall: 69

This season, Werder Bremen welcomes a promising young defensive midfielder named Alvero. His performance statistics are very impressive and are expected to improve significantly. Alvero’s physical rating is 80 points, which is a very good score for a defensive midfielder. This means that he can effectively assist the defense and regain control before the opponent passes the ball into the penalty area.

Although Alvero has some shortcomings to head accuracy, his ratings in other skills are enough to make up for this shortcoming. Overall, Alvero is a very promising and well-rounded midfielder.

5. Jabir Abdihakim Ali

• Height: 6’8" (202cm)
• Position: ST
• Nationality: Sweden
• Overall: 58

Abdihakim is also not an ideal choice for most players, because for this Swedish striker, height is his only advantage, because except for 77 jumping ability and 70 heading accuracy, other data are quite disappointing. As he is only 23 years old this year, it means that Abdihakim is expected to improve his data to a certain extent, but it is almost difficult to become a reliable striker.

4. Anosike Ementa

• Height: 6’8" (202cm)
• Position: ST
• Nationality: Denmark
• Overall: 66

Ementa is younger than Abdihakim and has better skills. Although his header performance is not outstanding, Ementa has the potential to improve his header accuracy by improving his jumping ability, judgment and aerial coordination, thus becoming a strong competitor in the team’s high-altitude competition.

Ementa has a fast speed, which makes him more threatening on the offensive end. He can use his speed advantage to break through the defense and create more scoring opportunities for the team. However, although his speed is a major advantage, his shooting data still needs to be improved.

3. Kalidou Sidibe

• Height: 6’8" (202cm)
• Position: CDM
• Nationality: France
• Overall: 67

In the defensive midfielder position, the tallest player is often the best choice for this position, because they have better physical conditions and vision to control the rhythm of the game.

Compared to Alvero, Sidibe is slightly better defensively and has a better header. Alvero is better at defending and can also participate in the team’s offense, which makes him more flexible in the transition between offense and defense. His shooting data is also better, which means he is more threatening on the offensive end and can create more scoring opportunities for the team.

Although Sidibe is taller, his speed and flexibility may not be as good as some other players who focus on defense, and his passing and organization skills also need to be further improved.

2. Kyle Hudlin

• Height: 6’9" (206cm)
• Position: ST
• Nationality: England
• Overall: 60

Although Hudlin is much taller than other forwards, he is not good at heading accuracy, and even his jumping ability is not the best. But he can also be called a cost-effective choice.

The English player has acceptable speed and performed well at the beginning. But for such a tall forward, his heading accuracy is disappointing and needs some training to improve these stats to become a reliable attacker.

1. Souleymane Isaak Toure

• Height: 6’9" (206cm)
• Position: CB
• Nationality: France
• Overall: 72

Isaak Toure is the tallest player on the list and the youngest. Toure’s physical score is 84, the highest on this list. The speed of 66 is also a good point to start upgrading. Although this score is not high, it is at least much better than below 60.

As for the heading accuracy score of 66, it obviously needs to be improved through more practice. Fortunately, given that Toure is only 21 years old this year, he has enough time to practice and train for multiple seasons to improve his ability.

These players provide a variety of options, but you must also pay attention to their limitations and maximize their potential through reasonable lineup configuration.
