9 All of the Fastest RBs and RWBs on FIFA 23 Career Mode

A right back that is capable of making an impact in the attacking end and still tracks back the other way to catch a winger is a basic trait of the fastest RBs in FIFA 23.

Over recent years, pace has become a key attribute in FIFA gameplay as it is now one of the most important qualities in the game. Fullbacks must have the pace to get up and down the flanks to affect both phases of the game if you want to have a balanced team in your Career Mode.

This article discusses the fastest right backs (RBs and RWBs) in the game including the likes of Bright Osayi-Samuel, Jeremie Frimpong and Ruan being amongst the best in FIFA 23.

We have ranked these speedsters based on their pace, sprint speed, and acceleration rating, and they must have their favoured position as right back or right wing-back.

Choosing FIFA 23 Career Mode’s Fastest Right-Backs (RB)

At the bottom of the article, you will find a full list of all of the fastest right backs (RB and RWB) in FIFA 23.

Bright Osayi-Samuel (74 OVR – 79 POT)

Team: Fenerbahce SK
Age: 24
Wage: £34,000 p/w
Value: £5.2 million
Best Attributes: 94 Pace, 94 Sprint Speed, 93 Acceleration

The Nigerian-born defender is one of the best athletes in the world of football and he has been ranked as the fastest RB in FIFA 23.

Osayi-Samuel boasts scintillating speed statistics on FIFA 23 with 94 pace, 94 sprint speed and 93 acceleration. The 24-year-old is comfortable in both RB and RWB positions and it is easy to see why his powerful running will be a brilliant asset in your Career Mode.

The speedster joined Fenerbahce in January 2021 from QPR and he has proved a revelation in the Turkish Süper Lig, scoring two times and setting up five goals in 43 appearances for Fener last season.

Jeremie Frimpong (80 OVR – 86 POT)

Team: Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Age: 21
Wage: £33,000 p/w
Value: £27.1 million
Best Attributes: 96 Acceleration, 94 Pace, 93 Sprint Speed

The highly-rated youngster has been recognised as one of the fastest RBs in FIFA 23 with an incredible rating of 96 acceleration.

Frimpong will be a reliable outlet in any attacking team on Career Mode as he has good overall ability at 80 and an exciting potential rating of 86. Furthermore, his 94 pace and 93 sprint speed will allow him to bomb up and down your right flank with motor-like effectiveness.

The Netherlands U21 international moved to the German Bundesliga from Celtic and he has proved a revelation for the Black and Reds. Delivering two goals and nine assists in 34 appearances in all competitions last season, Frimpong is a talent to keep an eye on.

Ruan (67 OVR – 68 POT)

Team: Orlando City
Age: 27
Wage: £3,000 p/w
Value: £946,000
Best Attributes: 94 Sprint Speed, 93 Pace, 91 Acceleration

The Brazilian is one of the fastest defenders on the planet and retains his place on this list because of his blistering pace from right fullback.

Ruan may not be one of the highest quality right backs on this list but there aren’t many who can keep up with him at 94 sprint speed, 93 pace and 91 acceleration. He could yet be a cheeky backup option in your FIFA 23 Career Mode due to his alluring price.

The 27-year-old plied his trade in Brazil before impressing during a loan spell at Orlando City to earn a permanent move in 2020. Ruan has since been a consistent feature with the MLS side as they won the US Open Cup in 2022.

Falaye Sacko (74 OVR – 75 POT)

Team: Montpellier
Age: 27
Wage: £8,000 p/w
Value: £3.8 million
Best Attributes: 93 Sprint Speed, 92 Pace, 91 Acceleration

Another low-quality but absolutely rapid option is the Mali international who is rated with pace to burn at 93 sprint speed, 91 pace and 91 acceleration.

While on loan at St. Etienne last season, Falaye made such an impression after a game against Paris Saint Germain that Lionel Messi was filmed asking to exchange shirts with him.

The 27-year-old returned to the Ligue 1 with Montpellier on loan from Vitoria Guimaraes until the end of the season and will look to keep showcasing his searing pace.

Wesley Burns (69 OVR – 70 POT)

Team: Ipswich Town
Age: 27
Wage: £6,000 p/w
Value: £1.3 million
Best Attributes: 92 Sprint Speed, 92 Pace, 91 Acceleration

This Welshman is a speed demon whose overall qualities as a right back do not do justice to his lighting pace on FIFA 23.

Burns is a very attack-minded RB with a keen eye for goal, and his 92 pace, 92 sprint speed and 91 acceleration are core ingredients in your Career Mode team.

Having operated between the lower divisions of English football, the 27-year-old joined Ipswich Town last season and ended his first campaign as the club’s top goalscorer with 13 goals, as well as providing seven assists. Burns subsequently featured in the EFL League One Team of the Season and was voted Ipswich Town’s 2021–22 Player of the Season.

He has duly earned his international debut for Wales in a UEFA Nations League match against Poland in June 2022.

Jorge Sanchez (76 OVR – 82 POT)

Team: Ajax
Age: 24
Wage: £11,000 p/w
Value: £9.5 million
Best Attributes: 92 Sprint Speed, 92 Pace, 91 Acceleration

The Mexican is one of the fastest right backs in FIFA and could prove a shrewd addition to your Career Mode squad.

At 24, Sanchez is not the best RB option out there with 76 overall rating but he possesses a high ceiling in the game with 82 potential. His incredible speed statistics also read 92 pace, 92 sprint speed and 91 acceleration.

Sanchez moved from Club America to join Eredivisie title holders Ajax on a four-year deal in the summer and is a regular for the Mexico national team ahead of the 2022 World Cup.

Wellington Sabrão (78 OVR – 78 POT)

Team: Flamengo
Age: 34
Wage: 32,000 p/w
Value: £4.3 million
Best Attributes: 94 Acceleration, 92 Pace, 90 Sprint Speed

What do they put in the water in Brazil? Wellington is a pacy and agile performer at 34 years old, and despite the fact he isn’t the best right back in FIFA 23, he is certainly one of the fastest.

The Flamengo man boasts 94 acceleration, 92 pace and 90 sprint speed to offer an immediate burst of speed in Career Mode.

Wellington has been a consistent feature across Brazilian football and having joined the Scarlet-Black in the 2019/20 season, the fullback has made a name for himself on FIFA with his incredible physical qualities.
