In EA Sports FC Mobile, the goalkeeper (GK) position holds significant importance, especially in Division Rivals mode. However, it’s important to note that a goalkeeper’s real-life status as world-class doesn’t necessarily guarantee superior gameplay in the game. Sometimes, less-known goalkeepers may perform exceptionally well in FC Mobile 25.
Mastering the art of scoring goals is crucial, but equally important is the ability to prevent your opponent from finding the back of the net. This underscores the importance of having a skilled goalkeeper on your team. The current meta favors certain goalkeepers over others, and knowing which ones can give your team a competitive edge is vital. If you’re in the market for a new goalkeeper in EA Sports FC Mobile, read on!
Selecting a goalkeeper isn’t just about speed; reflexes, handling, reactions, and positioning are all critical factors that can elevate a goalkeeper to world-class status. However, finding the right goalkeeper for your team will depend on your specific needs and the system you’re running.
Are you in need of a resolute shot-stopper whose sole aim is to prevent the ball from crossing the goal line, or do you prefer a goalkeeper skilled in distribution, capable of delivering long balls over the opposition’s defensive line? Rest assured, there’s a goalkeeper for every style of play out there.
In the previous seasons, one of the advantages of GK was height (and it was too overpowered). We had hoped this wouldn’t be the case for the current season. Unfortunately, it still is.
Goalkeepers with greater height have an advantage in defending shots aimed close to the goalpost, and they excel at intercepting balls that are tossed deep into the penalty area. This is due to their extended reach and ability to cover a larger area within the goal.
Stats that are very important for goalkeepers are Reflexes, Diving, Reactions, Handling, and GK Positioning.
The Reflexes stat indicates the agility of the goalkeeper during a save attempt. Essentially, it measures the speed at which the goalkeeper can react to a shot on goal. A lower Reflexes stat could result in the goalkeeper reacting slower to shots or potentially missing them altogether.
Diving refers to the goalkeeper’s capacity to make a save while leaping through the air. This ability is directly influenced by the player’s height, with taller players generally excelling at diving.
Handling, on the other hand, is a unique attribute for goalkeepers that assesses how cleanly they catch the ball and their ability to maintain possession once it’s caught. Essentially, it measures the goalkeeper’s tendency to catch the ball outright, as opposed to deflecting it away, and their ability to hold onto it securely.
GK Positioning refers to the ability of goalkeepers to correctly position themselves when attempting to save shots. Moreover, it also influences how a goalkeeper responds to crosses, determining their positioning and reaction in these scenarios.

Goalkeepers have four types of skills to choose from: Diving, Passing, Shot Stopper (Unlocks after Diving reaches Lvl. 3), and Sweeper Keeper (Unlocks after Passing reaches Lvl. 3). Please read the guide on Skills and Skill Points here.
EA can do buffs or nerfs on goalkeepers in FC Mobile, and EA also always releases new cards along with new events, so the list above can change at any time. We’ll make an effort to regularly update this list of the best goalkeepers in FC Mobile 25.
Do you have other player recommendations? Feel free to comment below.
The Best CF in the Game
The Best CDM in the Game
The Best LM in the Game
The Best RM in the Game
If the GK update solved the height dominance, then Iker 98 EoE, Sommer 97 Bundesiga Rivalry, Gulacsi 98 UCL Ro16 , Alisson 98 TOTSSF , Ter Segen 96 TOTSSF , Yashin 95 Icons, Singh Sandhu 88 SBC should be added to the list, as their stats are really good.
Why would Singh Sandhu be up there? He is trash and you need a lot of training. It is also really unlikely for you to have good chem with him and your defenders.
Mendy Golden week is the best goalkeeper
Mendy used to be one of the best goalkeepers in FIFA before the goalkeeper height regulation. Now, he is just an average keeper.
Not possible at all!!! You have not put the best GKs of Fifa mobile in the list….. Some Legendary GKs like Courtious(102 ovr), Lehmann(99 ovr) and Schmechiel(92 ovr)
After the update this list is useless, now Lehmann is top goalkeeper and none of those above are in the top 10
Donna is still in the top 3.
You are correct
Jarstein is not bad
Some good ones are Casillas (End of an Era) 98 OVR, and Alex Meret (EAster) 92 OVR. I had both of these and they are both good.
Also Courtois (TOTSSF) 102 OVR
I forgot to add TOTSFF 98 Sommer and 98 Alisson
Please add the new ToTSSF gk also
Mendy Golden week is the best.
Is Mendy golden week good?
he is ok
Singh Sandhu is the best keeper in the game and you don’t even have him on the list. I bet if I go check the CB list you don’t have Mathoho from nations sbc either who is also a top non prime icon player
No, he isn’t the best GK in the game
He’s better then most of the keepers on this list. Shows you don’t really know the game. No matter who you ask he’s one of the top 5 keepers pre tots. He’s 6 foot 6 with better stats then POTM Donna.
then why he is not on the starting XI of the top leaderboard players? He is pretty good for low-medium teams, but not good enough for top teams.
Why hes not preferred????
Ans. Sandhu is 88 so needs training. Also he will hurt ur chemistry as ur CBs are not likely to be from Sandhu’s Team/league/Nation.
He might be the least tested GK so no big reviews about him from big players.
But given his Height, Stats and No.1 SB, He is as good as donna or Courtois on paper before EAs height fix.
Now dat all GKs are of same height (stupid fix by EA) Sandhu is still top guy but not best GK.
Lol… height no longer important they have all the same “size”. Check stats only. And Indon’t think they will update before totwsf presents all the players
Agree! He is amazing
when do you mean to update golden week players?
I think mendy Golden week is also good
Golden Week Mendy?
EFL league one… Ipswich town GK the most height… 6’9….name H’OLY…
Is 75 UEL milinkovic Slavic the best GK in the game?
Yes he is the best goalkeeper in the game, his height is his main advantage.
Yes I agree
He might be, but whenever I play against him, he is terrible. I would rather get 93 Golden Week Mendy. Mendy is really good at saving low shots, long-range finesse shots and those close-range power shots
how about 98 Gulacsi
Lazy keeper
absolutely trash
how about Toty alisson ??ter stegen??szecny??oblak??
singh sandhu ?????
Meret 92 EAster masuk kategori gak gan?
Terlalu pendek gan 😀
No way. Meret had good height before the height change and good stats. Now he only has good stats. He is still very good at saving very close range power shots.
What do you think abt blake thanksgiving
Potm Donnarumma or Marquee star De Gea? I’m currently using de gea, but he does not seem any good to me…
Real life -> De Gea
FIFA Mobile -> Donna
Courtois or Donnurama??? 90 vs 94..
Height 6’6 vs Height 6’5
Which one to select???
Who is better… I have real Madrid back three And Cannavaro…
Take Courtois ,he is one of best goalkeeper. This will increase your chemistry level too.
What about 97 Gulácsi
sommer sucks i grinded for him just to lose 4:0 first game i got him his height is holding him down i don’t get this game at all
Donna
Sommer isn’t tall enough
Gikiewicz 89 is quite well GK.
To admin
Is a GK with low reaction ok?
How is new singh sandhu card ?
Donna 97 potm or sommer 97?
answer please
Donna any time. He is way better than any other GK in the game.
Is ter stegen toty good???
milinkovic would be a beast if train him up to 100
what about pope 77 base
Totw pope is better
to admin
what is the least recommended height in fm?
Many said 195cm
Hey what about 95 ovr gk of ucl group 16 week 2 ….. Or week 1 98 ovr gk
98 ovr Donna (potm) or 95 ovr nick pope? Which one is better GK?
Donna
Check out singh sandhu in In SBC chapter.
6’6″ & with whooping stats
Check out 93 Ovr Kepa from Carniball.
Never go for Kepa .
Donnaruma or Courtois?
donnaruma
Pls reply is dean henderson good ?? ( Boxing day )
never tried him but also never heard any good reviews about him. It seems that players rarely use him.
De gea 95 will be the best 😂
Worry about his height.
How about TOTY Ederson ?
One word. DON’T. His gameplay is bad, his height makes him unsuable.
Is gazzaniga good??
He has good height and stats (except diving which is little less)
I currently have 92 lny handa, but should I switch to potm donna?
I use Handanovic and he is great. I did the switch first with SP Courtois and then with POTM Donna but honestly in H2H the difference in price was not worth it at all. Handa is solid in H2H enough for him to be compared with them and keepers will always concede no matter how good they are, for VSA I keep Courtois because I’m still completing Zidane chapter 3 but will sell him when I’m done.
Handanovic is also a good gk in game and also the 2ñd best gk in seri A after donna. But no need to change.
Compare Donnaruma Potm plz
How about the new Donn POTM card?
What about Oblak(92) from Ateletico Madrid?!
Best in seria A
At this time, POTM Donnarumma
Where is neuer of lny
Who is the best Bundesliga goalkeeper?
Neuer?
Yeah…His positioning is good and diving is great
Can you do list of defenders, attackers and Midfielders??
I will
Alisson Becker has better stats than the other goalies gk on the list. Isn’t that a good option?
Try to play against him and then, compare with playing against Courtois or Pope, then you will know the difference.
Exactly it’s correct
What about Lukas Hradecky (Freeze, 92)
Could you find one goalkeeper in La Liga that is less than 4 milly coins but still very great.
Was so glad to pick up Pope. Gazza was performing well for me from Tottenham.
Are you retarded? Nick Pope plays for Burnley
Read back what I wrote. Then question you’re own intelligence.
I think LNY Handanovic should be on this list
Agreed……good gk positioning and reflexes(93 ovr)
