FIFA 23 Wonderkid CAMs

In this article, we are looking at the best wonderkid centre attacking midfielders in FIFA 23. These players are natural at CAM, but that won't stop them popping up on a wonderkid CM list as lots of players are natural at multiple central spots.

These players are all 19 years old or younger when you start Career Mode in FIFA 23, which means they have huge development potential and a long career ahead of them. You might not be able to afford them, but getting your hands on at least one of these players will immediately improve nearly any team in the world.

Jamal Musiala (84 OVR - 92 POT)

Team: Bayern Munich

Position: CAM, LW, RW, CF

Age: 19

Nation: Germany

Jamal Musiala is fast becoming a household name thanks to his stunning performances for Bayern Munich. The teenager broke English hearts by deciding to represent Germany at national level, and they are reaping the rewards of his amazing talent.

Musiala is already capable of playing in most teams in FIFA 23 and is well out of reach for a lot of clubs. He's got a four-star weak foot and five-star skill moves to go along with some awesome attributes. He's got 92 agility, 92 dribbling, and 88 ball control to torment defenders, while his 81 short passing and 76 finishing make him a creative threat.

Florian Wirtz (83 OVR - 91 POT)

Team: Bayer Leverkusen

Position: CAM, CM

Age: 19

Nation: Germany

Musiala's national teammate Florian Wirtz is next up. He's been a regular fixture on wonderkid lists for a while now, and continues to develop into a world-beating creative force.

In FIFA 23 Wirtz starts with 88 ball control, 84 short passing, and 83 long passing. He can even get a ball in from wide with 77 crossing while his 78 finishing makes him a goal-scoring threat too. Wirtz has four-star skill moves and a four-star weak foot, making him a well-rounded player.

Xavi Simons (78 OVR - 88 POT)

Team: PSV Eindhoven

Position: CAM, LW, RW

Age: 19

Nation: Netherlands

Xavi Simons has already been through Barcelona and PSG in his career, but moved to PSV in the summer to get more playing time. The results speak for themselves as he's picked up 14 goals and eight assists in the Eredivisie at the time of writing.

He starts FIFA 23 as a physically imposing player. His 88 acceleration and 87 sprint speed let him menace back lines with off-the-ball movement, while his 83 ball control, 77 short passing, and 73 finishing make him a threat at every moment.

Fabio Miretti (74 OVR - 88 POT)

Team: Juventus

Position: CAM, CM

Age: 18

Nation: Italy

The first Italian on our list is Juventus' golden boy Fabio Miretti. His 88 POT is the same as Simons, but he starts a little behind the Dutch wonderkid.

Miretti brings well-balanced attributes to Juve's team, with 79 agility, 79 dribbling, 79 ball control, and 79 short passing as his best attributes. He's not great in front of goal, with only 52 finishing, but he can also play a bit deeper if needed with his 71 standing tackle being great for a CAM and letting him press a bit more.

Tommaso Baldanzi (74 OVR - 88 POT)

Team: Empoli

Position: CAM, CF

Age: 19

Nation: Italy

We have a second Italian in Tommaso Baldanzi, and a bit more of a goal-threat than Miretti. Balanzi is a left-footer, offering some additional angles to your attack that will catch opponents out.

He brings 88 balance, 78 dribbling, 77 short passing, and 72 finishing to the team, making him a threat with the ball at his feet. He is only 5'7" though, so won't be winning many aerial duals.

EA Sports FC

The divorce is official, EA won't be going back to FIFA any time soon. The recent announcement of EA Sports FC made clear what we all knew for a while, EA won't be paying FIFA's massive licensing bill anymore.

This means that what everyone expected to be called FIFA 24 will be arriving as EA Sports FC. This is a massive saving for EA, and one we hope is re-invested into improvements in the football title.

Players can still expect Career Mode and Ultimate Team to feature heavily in EA Sports FC, and with more than 19,000 fully licensed players, 700 teams, and 30 leagues it should still be the game we all know and love.

Of course, FIFA isn't taking this lying down and is expected to either license a new game or start developing its own. It is likely that they work with EA's great rivals 2K, as developing a new game from scratch without a studio already up and running is a huge mission.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino has already claimed that there will be a FIFA 25 title that will be "the best e-game". It's big talk, but he might want to brush up on his gaming terminology before he starts talking about it again!
