EA Sports FC 24 Midfielders: Fastest Central Midfielders (CM) to Sign in Career Mode

Central midfielders in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode play the vital role of breaking through the lines, utilising pace and passing ability to be referred to as playmakers, box-to-box midfielders, or holding midfielders. 

Here, we’re going through the outright fastest midfielders to sign in Career Mode. At the bottom of the article, you can see the full list of all the fastest midfielders to sign in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode.

1. Marcos Llorente (Sprint Speed 91, OVR 84)

Team: Atlético Madrid

Age: 28

Wage: £72,000 p/w

Value: £35.7 million

Best Attributes: 91 Sprint Speed, 87 Acceleration, 83 Agility

With a whooping 91 sprint speed, 87 acceleration, and 83 agility, I can say – without a doubt – that Marcos Llorente Moreno is one of the fastest central midfielders in EA Sports FC 24’s Career Mode. 

Llorente presents himself as a good addition to the midfield in Career Mode. Not only does he boast fantastic pace attributes, but his 83 agility and 91 stamina make him a force to be reckoned with across the middle of the park.

The Spanish-born speedster signed a six-year deal for Atlético Madrid in 2019. In 22 appearances last season, the 28-year-old scored one goal. He also got his international call-up to the Spain squad in 2016 and now has 18 caps.

2. Federico Valverde (Sprint Speed 91, OVR 88)

Team: Real Madrid

Age: 24

Wage: £230,000 p/w

Value: £110.9 million

Best Attributes: 91 Sprint Speed, 84 Acceleration, 77 Agility

Federico Santiago Valverde Dipetta is an incredibly well-rounded midfielder, but his 91 sprint speed and 84 acceleration are what truly make the dynamic Uruguayan a tremendous midfielder. Valverde has attributes most central midfielders could only dream of. 

His pace, 89 stamina, 83 dribbling, 88 ball control, 86 vision, and 89 reaction attributes highlight Valverde as an immense physical, technical, and attacking figure in the CM role on EA Sports FC 24.

Valverde is currently signed to Real Madrid on a five-year deal, and his stats last season were exceptional. In his 34 appearances of the 2022/23 campaign, he found the net seven times.

At 24 years of age, you can pick up the Uruguayan CM for £110.9 million, and his wages won’t exactly be quaint, either.

3. Warren Tchimbembé (Sprint Speed 88, OVR 65)

Team: Metz

Age: 25

Wage: £4,000 p/w

Value: £850,000

Best Attributes: 88 Sprint Speed, 82 Acceleration, 77 Agility

He may only be rated 65, but Warren Christopher Paul-Roger Tchimbembé can certainly be useful in midfield thanks to his 88 sprint speed, 82 acceleration, and 77 agility.

Tchimbembé is quietly competent in all facets of midfield play. His 64 vision and 70 short passing allow him to create chances from open play; the 73 stamina is more than usable for one-on-one situations; and his 67 standing tackle and 67 sliding tackle mean that he can contribute defensively, too.

After joining Metz from Troyes on a three-year deal in the summer of 2018, Tchimbembé impressed the club, scoring five goals and recording six assists in 31 appearances across all competitions.

In Career Mode, Tchimbembé would be a great addition. If given more playing time, he’d reach his potential and continue to be among the fastest CMs in EA Sports FC 24.

4. Yunus Musah (Sprint Speed 87, OVR 74) 

Team: AC Milan

Age: 20

Wage: £29,000 p/w

Value: £7.7 million

Best Attributes: 87 Sprint Speed, 81 Acceleration, 70 Agility

One of AC Milan’s speedsters, Yunus Dimoara Musah ranks among the fastest central midfielders in the game thanks to his 87 sprint speed and 81 acceleration ratings. 

Musah is a well-rounded performer, given his 74 overall rating and 83 potential. Still, it’s his pace that really sets him apart in the game. The versatile 20-year-old also has tremendous additional ratings like his 75 short passing, 78 dribbling, and 75 aggression.

The American recorded a career-high two goals and five assists for the Italian side last season. Musah has become a key part of the national side in recent times as well, currently being played in the starting lineup for the squad.

5. Ishaq Abdulrazak (Sprint Speed 86, OVR 68) 

Team: BK Häcken

Age: 21

Wage: £6,000 p/w

Value: £2.3 million

Best Attributes: 86 Sprint Speed, 87 Acceleration, 86 Agility

This highly-rated central midfielder is Ishaq Abdulrazak, and he is certainly one to keep an eye on in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode. 

His 68 overall rating and 77 potential rating are decent enough, but his raw speed is what truly sells the 21-year-old. Abdulrazak’s speed is a key weapon in the game, and his 87 acceleration, 86 agility, and 86 sprint speed will fit right into your Career Mode line-up.

While he’s only played a handful of games for his current club, BK Häcken, the Nigerian-born speedster has made his presence known. 

Signing a talent such as Abdulrazak may prove to be a stumbling block if you’re not one of the wealthiest clubs in Career Mode. However, the way that Abdulrazak can dominate games suggests that you should make a move as fast as possible.

6. Latif Blessing (Sprint Speed 85, OVR 70) 

Team: Toronto FC

Age: 26

Wage: £4,000 p/w

Value: £1.4 million

Best Attributes: 85 Sprint Speed, 88 Acceleration, 90 Agility

Ghanaian midfielder Latif Blessing has recently made a name for himself for Major League Soccer club Toronto FC. His blistering speed has been causing all sorts of problems for opposing sides at club and international level.

In Career Mode, Blessing is just as impressive, coming in with 85 sprint speed, 90 agility, and 88 acceleration. He’s a player with tremendous pace. The 26-year-old is yet to hit his peak in-game, so signing him for £1.4 million might be your best bet for securing an elite speedster in the middle of the field.

Blessing signed for Toronto for just £3 million from Los Angeles FC in the summer of 2017. He immediately cemented himself as their first-choice CM, making 30 appearances during the 2022/23 campaign.

7. Darius Olaru (Sprint Speed 84, OVR 72) 

Team: Fotbal Club FCSB

Age: 25

Wage: £10,000 p/w

Value: £2.9 million

Best Attributes: 84 Sprint Speed, 82 Acceleration, 83 Agility

He may not be the most complete centre midfielder at this stage of his career, but Darius Dumitru Olaru does have the very important skill of being quick, which stands him in good stead in Career Mode going forward.

Blessed with raw speed, Olaru’s 84 sprint speed, 82 acceleration, and 83 agility make him one of the fastest CMs in EA Sports FC 24 Career Mode.

Last season, Olaru was a first-team regular for FCSB and scored ten goals in 21 appearances.

Olaru will only improve in-game, and the Romanian international can reach a potential 77 overall. Still, to profit from Olaru’s services, you’ll need to pay £2.9 million to get him in your team right away.
