Strikers are the heart of your attack in FC Mobile. A great one can turn half chances into goals and make a big difference in Division Rivals matches. The meta favors those with a blend of pace, dribbling, strong Weak Foot, and shooting traits like Finesse Shot or Long Shot Taker. These attributes allow them to score in various ways and stay dangerous against any defense.

Other Positions:
In EA Sports FC Mobile 26, the striker (ST) position is one of the most important roles in any lineup. The better your striker performs, the easier it becomes to convert chances into goals and win matches.
Several key attributes influence a striker’s gameplay, including Dribbling, Pace, Ball Control, Finishing, Shot Power, and Long Shot.
Dribbling is especially useful in one-on-one situations. A striker with high Dribbling and strong Pace can easily beat defenders and create space for a clean finish. Finishing determines how clinical your striker is inside the box, while Shot Power affects how quickly and forcefully the ball hits the net. Long Shot, on the other hand, measures accuracy from outside the penalty area, which can be useful against tight defenses.
Another crucial factor is Weak Foot. Strikers with a 5★ or 4★ Weak Foot are far more reliable when shooting from both sides, making them harder to predict and defend.
This isn’t part of the current meta since crossing and heading have been heavily nerfed. However, if you still prefer a crossing or aerial playstyle, pay attention to Heading, Jumping, and the striker’s height. When paired with the Power Header trait, these attributes can still make your striker a real threat in the air and capable of scoring from well-timed crosses.
Ultimately, the best striker for your team depends on how you play, whether you prefer fast counterattacks, possession build-up, or a crossing strategy. Pick one that fits your system, and you’ll notice an instant improvement in your attack.
Cheap Beast STs
Looking for a strong striker that doesn’t cost too much? Here are our top picks for cheap but beastly strikers.
Even though their base OVR might be lower, once you train and rank them up, their gameplay feels outstanding on the field.
| Name | OVR | Program |
|---|---|---|
| Eric Cantona | 104 | Winter Wonders |
| Kenny Dalglish | 104 | Ballon d’Or |
| Müller | 105 | Ballon d’Or |
| Völler | 104 | Trophy Titans |
| Michael Owen | 105 | Ballon d’Or |
| Butragueño | 104 | Ballon d’Or |
| Raúl | 105 | TOTY |
| Papin | 105 | Ballon d’Or |
| Son | 102 | Trick or Treat |
| Diogo Jota | 102 | Winter Wonders |
Please note that all these strikers need to be Ranked and trained to display their best gameplay. The higher their Rank and Training Levels, the better their gameplay becomes.
You must also activate Striker Skills using Skill Points to maximize their stats. Strikers have six types of skills to choose from: Shooting, Passing, Dexterity, Finisher (Unlocks after Shooting reaches Lvl. 3), Target Man (Unlocks after Passing reaches Lvl. 3), and Counter (Unlocks after Dexterity reaches Lvl. 3). Please read the complete guide on Skills and Skill Points here.
EA can adjust Strikers in FC Mobile with buffs or nerfs and they consistently introduce new and improved cards with each new event. Due to this, the list mentioned above is subject to change at any time. We’ll try to update this list of the top strikers in FC Mobile 26 regularly.

Best CDM – Top 10 Defensive Midfielders Ranked
Best LM – Top 10 Left-Midfielders Ranked
Pls add songkran Rooney 106. He is very good. IMO he is better than 105 Basten
Kvara does have one con(his stamina)
Thanks for the correction!
I don’t really think that drogba deserves to be here. He’s just a finisher, nothing more. He’s slow and bulky and his dribbling isn’t exactly smooth. He could be really great for cross spammers tho. I do think that hm gyokeres deserves to be here.
I noticed the same thing when trying him at the Scouting Camp. Drogba didn’t seem too involved in the build-up play, and I often had difficulty finding him on the field. However, since every user has a different playstyle, I try my best to keep this list objective and not overly biased toward a particular style.
what about gyokeres? he is one ideal striker(leaving the 3* sm and lack of traits, which is quite an issue for lane change abusers but nothing more) as he has great pace, great shooting, 5* wf, good height, good skill stun and great physical for a striker. his positioning is good too. he’s great for tiki taka.
I made this list with all modes in mind, not just H2H. I find that strikers with 3* Skill Moves can feel a bit limited, especially in VSA, where they often need to bypass 2-3 defenders on their own. It’s a shame, though, because his 5* Weak Foot is perfect for a striker.
How does this list rank players? Like is the best striker at the top of list then the 2nd best st goes below?
Yes, but it’s not a strict ranking. While the best striker is generally listed at the top, some players may be ranked differently based on their playstyle. Pros and cons are included to give users a better understanding of each player’s strengths and weaknesses.
hey i need a solo striker and i have 2 options kvaratshkelia 107 and euseabio 106 .pls tell me which card is better overall and is better for solo striker formation
I got like 300 million coins . I need a good striker. Who should i buy .
Change both beacause 4* star weak foot is a GIANT PROBLEM in which u will lose many goal chances so change with R9 101 HOL and Isak 104 and u should own everyone ur against 🙂
btw: both max rank + training for the best gameplay.
get Gyasi zardes ww 103 his only con is 3* skill moves.
OR
U can use LW card 103 son no cons just a W
OR diogo jota ww 102 his only con is a little low physical
who is better i got 105 shevchenco and 105 raul if am changing someone ,who should i change ? pls help !!
105 Raul is better
Hello. Whos the best of these 3? And why if possible
Raul(105)
Crespo(106)
Sanchez(106)
sanchez hes qiuck.agile and his joystikdrible is soo smooth , crespo got midiaum attacking work rate so he is not a good oppiniion,and with raul he is something heavy [ on base of my experience] my oppinion is go with sanchez , i hope this helped u
Hi I have 104 Haaland ballon dor what about him. His weakness and strengths please tell. Thank you
weakness: weakfoot dribbling passing skill moves
strengths : shooting heading pace physical stamina
powershot
finesse shot
overall haaland is good but mostly bad.
PELE
101 R9 (Hall of Legend) or 107 Cruyff TOTY ?
If you use a one-striker formation, maybe go with R9. Cruyff is very good but requires adjustments. He is difficult to use in a one-striker formation.
I’m struggling between di natale 107 or kvara 107 should be put on the striker spot, which is better for the striker?
Bro I have 105 RAUL toty icons what about him. His weakness and strengths please tell.
He is well-rounded, but as a top striker, his 4★ weak foot is a drawback.
what about 107 oshimen? i was thinking him because he is 800, should i try get 1000 and get a better at?
What about Raul 105 toty? Is he any good , to be replaced with Isak 103 POTM?
Yes, Raul is better.
is 103 Drogba still good?
He’s still decent for for a team with a limited budget.
Should I put 107 ST Cryuff at CAM and 105 Ronaldo stay in st
105st
Dude what about 105 haaland ?
Drogba should be second on the list, to me drogba is more complete than r9. Because r9 can only beat MALDINI with pace, no dribbling,no heading to beat MALDINI. But drogba can take MALDINI down l.e his strength, pace, heading,passing. Drogba is more dangerous than r9 for me. Thank, I love ur game
Which one is better
103 Mbappe (Anniversary)
OR
101 R 9 ( Hall of legends)
R9 HOL
Please is Martinez 104 a good player with a 433 (attack) formation ?Or which other good player can I get bellow 500m coins..thanks
He is mid. With your budget you can buy Butragueno (5 Weak Foot) instead.
Winter wonders: 105 Torres or 105 Pele or 105 Henry which one is the best?
How’s Drogba 106 TOTY24?
Son 102 có tốt hơn Eusebio 101 không ?
Yes, Son 102 Trick or Treat is better than Eusebio 101 HOL.
how’s 105 toty haaland?
Is eusebio 101 over good or dalglish 101 over better?
Eusebio
What about balotelli 103 with 5 star skills
Is he really a good striker in the game
is Jackson 104 gonna be in the list?
There are too many better strikers than him available in the game.
No winter wonders player? It’s already week 5 and this site hasn’t been updated yet? Is it abandoned?
I think there’s something wrong with your browser. Try clearing your browser cache or using a different browser. We have added Winter Wonders players since Week 1.
Bro do you think Van Persie (105) should be on the list ?
Yes, he is on par with Fernando Torres.
What do you think about Van Persie(105gen)? I didn’t see him in the rankings but even though he is a bit slower in terms of pace than Torres, he has a higher finishing and shooting power for a forward.
Van Persie’s cards have always been good.
Bro isak is so good he have expentinal pace outstanding shouting btw fernando torres height is wrong and pls update other LB and LW because mbappe and mendy
Thanks for the correction and we will update other positions.
best striker under 300million?
Voller, Suker, Jota.
Can you please update the best Striker ,LW ,CB, and CAM btw the winter wonders week 3 came out.
We have updated them.
whats a good striker for 150mil? playing a 5-2-3 formation with barnes and salah on wings
102 OVR Diogo Jota (Winter Wonders)
102 OVR Davor Suker (Ballon d’Or)
You forget 102 CR7 he is a beast against every defender when he is ranked up and trained
I am stuck on deciding whether or not I should get 101 Alvarez or 101 Forlan. I could get them to purple and train them both to level 19. Which one should I pick?
CR7 102 and R9 105 ??
bro are u crazy..u gonna choose 102 cr7 over r9?
r9 is the goat
What abaut 105 ovr Papin is he good?
good but there are better strikers or just use lw that can play as strikers, they are fast
Which player is good for this combination. [ long shot + good curve rate + finess shot + good accuracy ]
just use lw as striker like mbappe
Puskas tho he has a 4 star wf
is butragueno ballon d’or any good?
nah, owned him way too many times, high ranked ronaldo, cruyff better
I play with him and he scored 2 goals and played the attack
Between cantona and dalglish which better with Henry and raphinia at wings?
I prefer Cantona.
Gyokeres is one of the best strikers in the game, his only con is his 3* sm other than that he’s a beast
What about 97 ronaldo nazario. Who is better between him and 99 van basten?
I prefer van Basten
Tevez est mieux que Muller ?
Is 101 Alvarez good in h2h ?(Gold rank)
i currently use govou and hes very good for counter attacks he automatically goes forward for the counterattack and just through or through pass with medium to between of medium and high power is best and worth for it
and the volley is amazing
just make him to rank purple with 15 levels of training and he is class.
another striker i have played with is malen from retro stars and he is very bad at close finesse shot but when it comes to long shots he is class and definitely recommend him as someone with just 101 ovr
one more tip ,
dont buy any 101 rated cam other than abedi pele his finesse is so good from long short left right and he is free kick god just the thing is that his height is short which 100% affects heading but definitely worth the pace just train him to purple rank and 15 training
What about Govou, Drogba, and Eto’o Trick or treats?
Is Sydney Govou (Halloween Icon) any good? Does he deserve to be put in the list? Also Which one is better : him or Carlos Tevez (Libertadores)?
Nope, not even in the top 20. But if between him or Tevez, I will choose him.
Is 100 ovr POTM Marmoush good? Is he a better ST than 100 Solanke and 100 Zirkzee
Is Harry Kane a better ST ?
is 99 ovr Di natale good ?
Is TOTY ICON 97 rated Eusibío good
it is good but i peffer ronaldo nazario
Currently using 99 Larsson Dynasties & just got 99 Di Natale Retro Icon, should I train, rank up, and use Di Natale instead?
103 OVR players are coming in a few days. You should start using players with a minimum of 100+ OVR because 99 OVR and below will soon be outdated.
di natale is better than larsson i have it in my reserves.its so good
