FIFA 23 wonderkid strikers
In this article, we will explore the very best FIFA 23 wonderkid strikers. That means players that are natural at either the ST or CF position, and are aged 19 or younger.
Plenty of these players will also be able to play in other positions, but we only want those whose best position is at the top of the formation. Other players, who will feature in our wonderkid wingers pieces, could fit here but if their best position isn't ST or CF then they don't qualify for this article!
Youssoufa Moukoko (75 OVR - 89 POT)
Team: Borussia Dortmund
Position: ST
Nation: Germany
Age: 19
Of course Youssoufa Moukoko is the leading wonderkid striker in FIFA 23. The Dortmund teenager is well-known by Football Manager players as a top star for the future, and FIFA supports that with his 89 POT.
A left-footed striker, Moukoko starts FIFA 23 with 85 balance, 83 sprint speed, 82 acceleration, and 78 finishing. He's not the most physically imposing at just 5'10", but his pace and 79 dribbling will make him a force while his room for growth is massive.
Adam Hlozek (76 OVR - 86 POT)
Team: Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Position: ST, CAM, LM
Nation: Czech Republic
Age: 19
Adam Hlozek is another player that has long been tipped for success. The Czech striker is versatile, as he can slot into the left wing and CAM spot too, but his natural position is up front in FIFA 23.
Hlozek is a very well-rounded player, with 84 strength, 79 acceleration, 79 ball control, and 75 finishing. He can also fight for balls in the air as he is 6'2". With a solid OVR and high potential, Hlozek is a player that can help teams out right now and will become a huge player in the future.
Elye Wahi (75 OVR - 85 POT)
Team: Montpellier
Position: ST, LW
Nation: France
Age: 19
If you haven't heard of Elye Wahi we can't blame you, but once you sign him in FIFA 23 you will remember the name!
Wahi brings 84 acceleration and 81 sprint speed to your front line, along with 78 finishing, 77 dribbling, and 76 shot power. He's a deadly striker with a four-star weak foot and four-star skill moves.
Benjamin Sesko (74 OVR - 85 POT)
Team: RB Salzburg
Position: ST
Nation: Slovenia
Age: 19
Benjamin Sesko is a towering Slovenian striker that is rising to prominence in Austria. He already has a future transfer lined up to RB Leipzig in the summer of 2023, showing that he is already on the radar of big teams.
In FIFA 23, Sesko is a physical striker. He's go 84 sprint speed, 83 strength, and 83 jumping which paired with 75 finishing and 71 heading makes him a perfect target for crosses and through balls.
Rasmus Hojlund (71 OVR - 85 POT)
Team: Atalanta (Begamo Calcio)
Position: ST
Nation: Denmark
Age: 19
Many have labeled Rasmus Hojlund as the next Earling Haaland. While that is unlikely, he is certainly an emerging superstar on the world stage. The Danish teenager moved to Atalanta in the summer of 2022 and at the time of writing has bagged seven goals in Serie A this season.
In FIFA 23, the left-footed Holjund has excellent physical attributes, with 84 strength, 84 sprint speed, and 83 acceleration. Supported by his 6'2" frame he can develop into a physically dominant player, and his 73 finishing means he will score goals right away.

EA Sports FC
FIFA 24 is dead, EA Sports FC is the new king. EA has confirmed that they are truly moving on from the FIFA name, by announcing EA Sports FC.
This title will feature more than 19,000 licensed players, 700 teams, and 30 leagues. With fully licensed UEFA club tournaments, women's leagues, and all the major leagues in Europe, it will be every bit the game players are used to from EA.
While it will be without the FIFA name, we can expect career mode and Ulitmate Team to feature heavily in the gameplay, and a similar engine and gameplay to FIFA 23.
