A couple of months into a FIFA cycle, those are usually all special items. But early on, generic gold cards are what most FUT players have at their disposal. We\u2019ll try to uncover the hidden potential of some gold cards in FIFA 23 that offer much more than their price suggests\u2014players that are probably on a dozen FUT teams but are doing wonders for them or players you can get for next to nothing and receive a Hero level of performance. In plain words, we\u2019re looking for the cheapest meta players in FIFA 23. Top five cheap meta players in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team CB: Ronald Araujo - 83 OVR (Barcelona) - 1,200 coins Ronald Araujo is a Lengthy center back, a status that brings all the boys to the yard in FIFA 23. He is 6 feet 4 inches tall with 84 sprint speed. His defensive stats are impeccable. He plays for Barcelona, which opens up Chemistry options. Araujo is the best value-for-money center back in FIFA 23. CAM: Piotr Zieli\u0144ski - 83 OVR (Napoli) - 1,000 coins Piotr Zieli\u0144ski is the emanation of Serie A in FUT. He is extraordinary and extraordinarily cheap. The Pole is everything you want from an attacking midfielder. He\u2019s fast, he\u2019s agile, he can pass, he can dribble, and he can shoot. And he can do all of that equally well with both feet. CM: Rodrigo De Paul - 84 OVR (Atl\u00e9tico Madrid) - 2,500 coins Rodrigo De Paul is a jack-of-all-trades central midfielder. If you need him to attack, he will. If you need him to defend, he will. If you need him to do both all game long, his 91 stamina will allow for that. You can pair him up with his Atl\u00e9tico teammate Thomas Lemar (1,500 coins) for extra productivity with Chemistry as a bonus. Lemar excels in the offensive part of the game but isn\u2019t as serviceable on defense. De Paul can cover him up just as effectively as he does in real life. Not everyone will go all-in on the Atl\u00e9tico duo, of course, so we went for De Paul as a single recommendation because of his versatility. If you have the defensive midfielder role pinned down already, Lemar might do better for your FIFA 23 FUT squad. CDM: Konrad Laimer - 83 OVR (RB Leipzig) - 1,400 coins You didn\u2019t think we\u2019d suggest playing Lemar next to a defensive midfielder without recommending anyone, did you? Laimer has already gained a reputation among FIFA 23 bargain-seekers. Thankfully, it hasn\u2019t affected his pricing and he can still be snatched at a laughably low price. Laimer is very fast for his position and provides a good mix of defending, dribbling, and passing. He's easily one of the best deals on the FUT Market today. ST: Tammy Abraham - 82 OVR (Roma)
