The Headliners promotion in FIFA 21 will soon be drawing to a close as we get geared up for the beginning of the Team of The Year event. While this promotion has seemingly flown under the radar, it has certainly provided us with a few new eye-catching cards to play around with. So without further ado, here is our list of the 5 best players from the FIFA 21 Headliners event.

5 Best FIFA 21 Headliners Players

1. Heung-Min Son

Heung-Min Son is a player that personifies what the Headliners event is all about; celebrating a player that is in tremendous form, and he certainly is. His card boasts some pretty outrageous stats, especially his 90 pace and his 91 dribbling making him even more of a menace to deal with than he already is in FIFA 21. If you are looking to build the ultimate Premier League team, then you need to get this Headliners card.

2. Bruno Fernandes

It is hard to do top 5 players list these days without Bruno Fernandes making his way into the conversation and that isn't much of a surprise. Bruno was probably the only really good card to come out of Headliners Team 1, and it isn't as though he didn't deserve to be recognized for his efforts in the Premier League this season. While he may not be available in packs anymore, if you happen to have enough coins for him in the Transfer Market you may want to consider getting his Headliners card.

3. Riyad Mahrez

Mahrez's inclusion on this list may come as a surprise to some but I can assure you, his Headliners card is very good. Between him and the two other players that were available to players outside of packs, he is undoubtedly the best one. His stats are pretty well rounded, with his most noticeable trait being his 92 dribbling which will allow you to mystify defenders. If you haven't already completed his SBC, I would recommend doing so.

4. Theo Hernandez

The only defender to make this list, and that is not to say there haven't been some good ones to come out of this promotion. But, Theo Hernandez's Headliners card is well and truly pearless. His 98 pace stat already puts him on par with Alphonso Davies's standard card, aka one of the fastest players in the game, but the fact that none of his stats drop below 70 is what makes this one truly worth the pack grind. Get this man's Headliners card on your team asap.

5. Hirving Lozano

What could be better than a standard Hirving Lozano? How about a 99 pace Lozano. As if the speedy Napoli winger couldn't get any faster and then all of a sudden EA Sports decided to bless us with this beauty of a card. Since Headliners Team 2 will still be available in packs till the end of the promotion on January 15, if you have the time and energy to dip into the FUT Store, he might be worth getting for your team.
