If you’re trying to pick the best gems out of all FUTTIES cards in FIFA 23, then this list will help you to prioritize. These are the best FUTTIES of the year.
14Vinicius Jr – 98 Overall
Vinicius is one of the best Left Wingers in FIFA 23 and receives a free FUTTIES card that you’re able to earn after reaching rank 40 in the season pass. Much like hisincredible Team of the Season card, this FUTTIES Vinicius also has five-star Skill Moves and a five-star weak foot but boasts a noticeable attribute increase across the board.
Vinicius' overall rating increases from 95 to 98, giving an extra burst of pace and improved Finishing attribute that all end-game cards need. While he can be replaced by a certain fellow Brazilian, it’s hard to deny the accessibility of this card as a guaranteed reward.
13Marco Reus – 97 Overall
Marco Reus was once the cover star of FIFA, but injuries prevented him from equaling the achievements of Mbappe and others. Despite his tumultuous career, this card finally realizes Reus' potential from a FUT point of view, giving him his best version ever.
The most notable attribute on this card is the 90 Physical, which is much better than Reus' Gold rating of 65. Aside from his massively improved ability to fight off strong defenders, Reus also boasts seven total Traits, including Flair Passes, Outside Foot Shot, and Finesse Shot – the bread and butter of any meta player.
12Franck Kessie – 96 Overall
Kessie is an exceptionally strong and quick destroyer in midfield, breaking up plays and transitioning defense into offense all over the pitch. While his previous best card only mustered an 86 rating, this 96-rated Kessie puts in a shift every match and isone of the most surprising FUT cards of the year.
While his average body type isn’t sensational, Kessie fits the mold of a defensive midfielder like Renato Sanches and offers a greater offensive threat. Take advantage of the Giant Throw-In, Flair Passes, and Swerve Pass Traits that enable Kessie to distribute the ball wherever you may need it.
11Antoine Griezmann – 96 Overall
From Kessie’s second upgrade to a footballer who has ten total card versions, Antoine Griezmann might be one of FIFA 23’s most dangerous attackers. While it’s very likely that you have encountered or used one version of Griezmann, this one simply puts the other to shame.

To add to Griezmann’s unique body type, he also boasts a set of eight Traits to use, highlighted by the ideal Flair, Finesse Shot, and Outside Foot Shot trifecta. Aside from the Trivela show, Griezmann also boasts Flair Passes and Swerve Pass enabling you to distribute or score in style.
10Saeed Al Owairan – 97 Overall
As if his base Hero version wasn’t already like using a cheat code for much of FIFA 23, now Al Owairan is back in full-meta fashion. Al Owairan’s lean body type and controlled AcceleRATE make him one of the fastest and most offensively explosive players available.
If 99 Pace isn’t enough, then surely the Dribbling attributes will entice you, depending on your play style. Unfortunately, Al Owairan does not have the banquet of Traits that others like Griezmann do, but he does boast Flair, Finesse Shot, and Flair Passes. On paper, it’s impossible to do this card justice, as it has more qualities in-game than meets the eye.
9Ibrahima Konate – 97 Overall
As another ‘free’ card, Ibrahima Konate surprisingly earns the title of one of the best defenders in FIFA 23 given his superbly high attributes, Lengthy AcceleRATE style, and sky-high attributes. Unlike Vinicius, this card may have a hidden cost: your sanity.
In order to unlock this Konate,you must win 35 Weekend League matcheswithin the event’s one-month time frame.
If this requirement is easy for you then you probably don’t need this card, but will adore the 99 Sprint Speed, Strength, and Short Passing, which headline Konate’s incredible 97-overall card. His 6'4" frame makes Konate a terror for smaller opposing attackers.
8Yaya Toure – 97 Overall
If you’ve played FIFA for a while, then you know there are few more frightening midfielders to see in an opposing team than Yaya Toure. Yaya’s long legs makeplaying in defenseseem too easy as he intercepts passes left and right using his 6'2" frame and Lengthy AcceleRATE style.
While attributes are incredibly important, Yaya has all the additional qualities and intangibles you could want in your defensive midfielder. While Kessie is an exceptional destroyer, he is surpassed by Yaya Toure, as the Man City legend simply cannot be beaten when you consider the whole package of qualities he brings to the table.
7Marcus Rashford – 98 Overall*
Marcus Rashford receives yet another upgrade to improve his already excellent TOTS card. Rashford gains a plus three to his overall rating, and he even gains a perfect five-star weak foot to round out his fantastic abilities.
Rashford’s Unique body type combines with Flair and Outside Foot Shot traits to make him one of the most dangerous attackers in FIFA 23. Rashford’s unique combination of Pace, length, Physicality, and excellent Shooting attributes makes him one of the best offensive threats to start or come off the bench if your team’s starting 11 is already stacked.
6Neymar Jr – 99 Overall
Much like his other versions, this Neymar Jr. boasts access to every skill move in the game,including rainbow flicks. Neymar’s Traits are equally impressive and include the previously mentioned ideal Trivela triumvirate of Flair, Finesse Shot, and Outside Foot Shot.

On paper, there is no better card available if you enjoy performing Skill Moves, as Neymar’s Dribbling is perfect, boasting a 99 in every aspect save for the 95 in Balance. Neymar’s particular body type gives him an exceptionally smooth feel and allows you to pull off some unprecedented dribbles in a flash.
5Rafael Leao – 99 Overall*
Rafael Leao seems destined to succeed Cristiano Ronaldo as the next top Portuguese Left Winger in the world, with incredible strength and Shooting. For now, this incredible young forward remains the understudy to one of FIFA’s greatest players of all time.
However, Leao is arguably impossible to stop in the right hands, as his combination of excellent traits like Flair, Finesse Shot, and Outside Foot Shot makes him a lethal Trivela scorer, especially once you master his dribbling style. While he may feel clunky at first, Leao’s high skill ceiling makes him a monster at high levels.
