FIFA 22 is finally here, so it’s key you’re aware of the fastest players available to pick up in Ultimate Team for every position.

There’s a lot of factors that go into building an effective squad in Ultimate Team, including tactics, formation, and of course, star players.

However, one stat that is absolutely key in almost every position on the pitch is speed and pace.

While not everyone in your team has to be lightning-fast, it’s important you have at least one player in attack, midfield, and defense that can pull away from their opposite number if necessary.

Luckily, there are countless high-quality players from around the world that will be able to inject your FIFA 22 FUT team with the pace it needs to succeed.

FIFA 22 Defenders
EA SPORTS
Fast wing backs are always expensive, but definitely worth the money.

So, there you have it, those are the fastest players for every position in FIFA 22. While it’s likely most of the top-tier fast players will be out of your budget, consider picking up a cheaper player while you build up your squad.

Pace is such a valuable stat for a team to have in both attack and defense, so make sure your team isn’t lacking speed when you begin building up your FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.
