Aston Villa ace Jacob Ramsey tipped to become better than Bruno Fernandes by FIFA 22
Jacob Ramsey has become one of Aston Villa's most important players this season, and the midfielder has now received an upgrade to his potential rating in FIFA 22
Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey has emerged as one of the Premier League's most exciting talents this season, with the 20-year-old currently a regular in Steven Gerrard's side.
The attacking quality and relentless work rate offered by Ramsey has seen him stamp his mark on the first team, with the midfielder having started 23 Premier League games already this season. In that time Ramsey has managed six goals and one assist, just one goal behind the club top scorer Ollie Watkins.
His impact for the Villans has even put the youngster on the radar of England boss Gareth Southgate, with Ramsey just missing out on a call-up for the most recent international break. Coming through Villa's academy, Ramsey's talent is undeniable, and it seems EA Sports have taken note when it comes to Ramsey's potential rating on FIFA 22.

Ramsey's performances have already warranted the midfielder an upgrade to his overall rating in FIFA 22 this year, but in the most recent squad update, his potential rating has risen once again. Let's take a look at Ramsey's potential rating on FIFA 22 and how he compares to other players around the world.
Jacob Ramsey's potential rating on FIFA 22
Overall FIFA 22 rating: 71/99
Overall FIFA 22 Potential : 88/100
Weak Foot: Three-Star
Skill Moves: Three-Star
On FIFA 22, Ramsey has an extremely impressive potential rating of 88 out of 99, a huge 17 ratings higher than his current rating (71). After his impressive start to the season, the 20-year-old has already received a +4 upgrade to his overall rating after starting the game at 67 overall, whilst his potential rating has jumped from 82 to 88.
With his potential now at 88, this means the Englishman has the highest potential rating at the club, overtaking Carney Chukwuemeka (87) and Ezri Konsa (86). If Ramsey was to reach his 88 rating, it would make him six ratings higher than the current rating of Phillipe Coutinho (82) and nine higher than Emiliano Buendia (79).
When compared to the rest of the Premier League, Ramsey's potential rating is higher than the current ratings of Man City's Raheem Sterling (87) and Bernardo Silva (86), and Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes (87) and Paul Pogba (86). There are also only a handful of other young players in the league with higher potential than Ramsey.
According to FIFA 22, only Phil Foden (92 potential), Kai Havertz (91 potential), Trent Alexander-Arnold (90 potential) Mason Mount, Diogo Jota and Jadon Sancho (89 potential) could become better than Ramsey in the future. This shows just how highly the 20-year-old is rated, in both real life and the virtual world.
