Who are the best midfielders in FM23?
There are plenty of midfielders in FM23 that are worth signings and a few of them are genuinely achievable if you’re managing some of the bigger sides. For example you could sign Rice and Milinkovic-Savic, which set up your midfield for years and their clubs would sell.
Who is the best midfielder in FM23?
There is only one answer here: Kevin De Bruyne. The Manchester City star is comfortably the best player you can get in the middle of the park in FM23.
He is a 5 star man, with plenty of stats above 15. Obviously, there are better players to play in DM, Joshua Kimmich for example, but for an all round man De Bruyne is your guy.
