Schweinsteiger checks in as third-highest rated MLS player in EA Sports FIFA 18

Chicago Fire midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger's impact since arriving on the Windy City shores back in April has been felt both on and off the field, and will soon extend even further into a video game console near you.

Prior to the upcoming release of EA Sports FIFA 18 on Sept. 29, the ratings for the game's top 25 players in Major League Soccer were released. Schweinsteiger -- with three goals and six assists to his name so far this season -- checked in at third overall with a rating of 81, behind only Toronto's Sebastian Giovinco and New York City FC's David Villa who were each rated an 82.
