Best FIFA 23 Players in All Positions

It was not long ago we published an article about FIFA 22 best players in every position. Now it's time to do the same, for some key roles such as Strikers, Goalkeepers, Wingers, Midfielders, and Center-backs for the next Ultimate Team Season which we're very excited to start. The Ultimate Team season will begin as soon as FIFA 23 releases, and FUT fans are already trying to figure out their squads and the players they want to include. Courtesy of the new FIFA 23 Chemistry system, players can create even more diverse squads with good players from around the world.
If you own an EA Early Access you can start playing FIFA 23 earlier and enjoy all the new features. But before you start the game, you need to know what tactics are more useful for your squad, and even before you start thinking about FIFA 23’s custom tactics, formations, and all the other essential aspects that form a unique Ultimate Team, you need to consider what positions you need to fill.
After almost a decade of playing FUT, we know that building up a decent squad with top-tier players can bring you great success along with considerable rewards and FUT coins. Now it's the same deal with FIFA 23 and you need to consider all your options from the backline to the middle of the field, before making a good decision.

Best FIFA 23 Strikers

When you want to choose a striker for your team, not only do you need to think about pace and strength, but finishing as well. Depending on what your team is missing and how you plan on tactically lining up in your matches, you can care more or less about these aspects. Since EA Sports did not release any ratings for the players in FIFA 23, a lot of the players on our list may change in value after the release. So, choose who every closest to your budget. Without any further ado, let's take a look at the best strikers in FIFA 23.

Best FIFA 23 Center-backs

As much as it is important to have a good striker to bring you goals, a high-speed winger to set things up for your team, a midfielder that takes control of the job in the middle of the, you need center-backs to prevent your rivals from getting close at your end. You may also need to spend a few FIFA 23 coins to buy your favorite players for this position. A combination of 2-3 players with a good balance of strength, speed, height, & mobility will do the job for you.
