FIFA 23 will be a strange one as Akinfenwa has retired. The Wycombe forward has been one of the strongest players on FIFA for a very long time, it’s part of the foundation of his whole personal brand.

Going into FIFA 23, there will be a new strongest player. Strength is a player’s ability to deal with physical battles, it’s traditionally found in defenders and helps with their ability to make a challenge.

The stat is very useful for forwards and how well they hold up the ball.  If a player has high strength and their other stats are high too, they are a huge handful for defenders. 

Going into FIFA 23 it seems likely that these players will boast the highest strength stat in the game. Some will get specials in Ultimate Team on FIFA 23, while others will be good youngsters for a Career Mode. 

Who is the Strongest Player in FIFA 23?

Name	Nation	Club	Overall	Strength
Tomáš Chory	Czech Republic	FC Viktoria Plzen	73	96
Daryl Dike	United States	West Bromwich Albion	71	96
Abdoulaye Seck	Senegal	Royal Antwerp	71	95
Duvan Zapata	Columbia	Atalanta	83	95
Armando Méndez	Uruguay	Newell’s Old Boys	70	95
Tomáš Petrášek	Czech Republic	Raków Częstochowa	69	95
Romelu Lukaku	Belgium	Inter Milan	86	95
Kalildou Koulibaly	Senegal	Chelsea	87	94
Niklas Süle	Germany	Borussia Dortmund	85	94
Luca Pfeiffer	Germany	VfB Stuttgart	71	94

The most desirable player on this list going into FIFA 23’s Ultimate Team will be Kalidou Koulibaly. He has just got a big move to Chelsea, while his combination of pace and strength is the perfect blend for a Centre Back. 

Lukaku is the only other player on the list that Ultimate Team players will want. He is back in Serie A this season after his disappointing move to Italy. His stats may get a slight reduction in FIFA 23, after last season, but he will still be one of the best Strikers in his league.

The rest of the list is not made up of great players for FIFA 23’s Ultimate Team, but Daryl Dike in particular could be a great signing on a Career Mode. He has been tipped for a big year this season at West Brom and he looks like one for the future.
