Fast and technically strong attackers will once again be the absolute meta in EA Sports FC 24. In this article, we show you the best attackers in the new FIFA 24.

Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland are, of course, the outstanding players in this list, but you probably already knew that. In addition to the players with the highest ratings, we also want to show you some "worse" players who will be really valuable at the beginning of EA FC 24 Ultimate Team.

Speaking of the start: For the perfect start in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, we have just the right thing for you:

EA FC 24: Best Strikers & Attackers for Ultimate Team

In EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, women are also among the best players. Here you can check out the Top 10 women players. In our opinion, women will be absolutely broken and dominate the meta. Graham Hansen, for example, has 90 OVR, 89 Pace, 86 Shooting, 91 Dribbling, AND 5-star skills. Who's going to stop this card? Right, no one.

Many players probably aren't even aware of how incredibly good the women will be. To help you get to know the best meta players, we've prepared a list for you. Of course, we've only included meta players, slow players like Harry Kane, Robert Lewandowski, or Alexandra Popp are probably not really valuable (unless the Lengthy meta kicks in again).

In the lists, we differentiate between the best players in Ultimate Team and OP cards that you can also afford at the beginning of FUT. We have the slightly cheaper alternatives further down in the article.

The Best and Most Expensive Strikers in EA FC 24

Here are the best and most expensive attackers in EA FC 24:

PLAYER CLUB OVR PACE
Kylian Mbappé PSG 91 97
Erling Haaland Manchester City 91 89
Sam Kerr FC Chelsea 90 85
Victor Osimhen Napoli 88 90
Rafael Leao AC Mailand 86 91
Debinha Kansas City Current 88 84
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia Napoli 86 84
Mohamed Salah FC Liverpool 89 89
Graham Hansen FC Barcelona 90 89
Sophia Smith Portland Thorns FC 88 93
Neymar Al-Hilal 89 86
Vinícius Jr. Real Madrid 89 95
Marie-Antoinette Katoto PSG 88 83
Marcus Rashford Manchester United 85 90
Kadidiatou Diani Olympique Lyon 89 89
Ousmane Dembélé PSG 86 93

These are the best gold cards you can get your hands on in FUT. It doesn't get any better than this. The prices of these players will be disproportionately high, so you won't be able to afford them in the first few weeks.

Kylian Mbappé still stands out here, even though he has received a lot of competition. But the Frenchman is simply unbeatable due to his pace, skills, and player model. In FIFA 23, his gold card was played until August, which says it all.

Erling Haaland will be an absolute monster, as we could already see in the trailer. His movements, his shot, and his play styles are absolutely insane. Due to the new AcceleRATE types, Lengthy will still be powerful.

The two Napoli players, Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia, have received significant upgrades and are in-demand attackers despite their difficult-to-link nations. Kvaratskhelia has 5-star skills and weak foot, which is amazing. The same probably applies to Debinha, who should have much better balance than Kvaratskhelia and therefore be much more agile.

The Best Female Striker in EA FC 24

We'll tell you how it is: you're not ready for how good the women will be. The stats of Sophia Smith are absolutely insane:

  • Name: Sophia Smith
  • Position: ST
  • Club: Portland Thorns FC
  • OVR: 88
  • Pace: 93
  • Shooting: 85
  • Passing: 78
  • Dribbling: 88
  • Defending: 45
  • Physical: 82

Who's going to stop this woman? It seems impossible...

The Best Affordable OP Attackers in EA FC 24

Now we'll show you more affordable alternatives to Mbappé, Haaland, and Smith. We're not claiming that the following players will be cheap, but with some trading and pack luck, you'll be able to afford these cards soon:

PLAYER CLUB OVR PACE
Gabriel Jesus FC Arsenal 84 83
Loïs Openda RB Leipzig 82 93
Alexander Isak Newcastle United 81 83
Raphinha FC Barcelona 84 91
Rodrygo Real Madrid 85 88
Kolo Muani PSG 84 91
Moussa Diaby Aston Villa 84 95
Kingsely Coman FC Bayern München 85 89
Leroy Sané FC Bayern München 84 91

Kolo Muani completes the PSG attack alongside Mbappé and Dembélé. You will see this trio so often in the Weekend League, it's going to be unpleasant. All three Frenchmen have 90+ pace, good night.

Moussa Diaby will become priceless after his move from Bayer Leverkusen to the Premier League. In that case, we might prefer players like Loïs Openda, who will be affordable with an 82 rating. You can link him well with Bayern players Sané or Coman. Or even with Manchester City's Doku for the Belgium link.

These are the best and most expensive forwards in EA FC 24. In the coming weeks, we will also present you with good and affordable starter teams, so stay tuned!
