FIFA 23 best cheap players: Free agents, contract expiry 2023 and bargain youngsters

It’s unlikely that you’ll get the best of the best because, well, those prodigies aren’t going to be affordable. But if you’re smart with spending, and know who to buy for cheap, your squad won’t be looking too shabby.

It’s likely that you’re struggling for money in FIFA 23 ’s Career Mode. Well, if it were easy there would be no challenge and it wouldn’t be fun. But we’re here to provide a few hints. The best cheap players are who you want. From affordable newbie players to those with contract expiry dates in 2023.

While it’s not as important as your real-life budget, living on a shoestring in FIFA’s career mode might be good prep for sensible training in reality. Either way, keep reading to see which decent players you’ll be able to scoop up for a decent price (and train yourself for looking for bargains irl).

FIFA 23 best free agents in Career Mode: Contract expiry players in 2023

As we’ve already mentioned, one of the most effective career mode hacks is to look for players whose contracts are ending in 2023. These soon-to-be free agents are looking for a home, and you’d be stupid not to give them one if you’re strapped for cash. And make sure you get in there quick before another club swoops in.

To save you some time, we’ve listed the best ranked free agent players below:

Lionel Messi – RW, ST, CF, age 36, overall 91, potential 92
Jan Oblak – GK, age 29, overall 89, potential 92
Cristiano Ronaldo – ST, LW, age 36, overall 90, predicted 90
N’Golo Kanté – CDM, CM, age 29, overall 89, potential 89
Mohamed Salah – RW, age 30, overall 90, potential 90
