If there’s one unchangeable truth in EA FC 26, it’s that very few stats are as game-changing for a player as pace. After all, just like a striker or winger unable to lose their markers will rarely score, a centre or fullback who cannot catch attackers might hurt you just as much. To help you find the best fit for your club, here are the 10 fastest players in EA FC 26, icons and promo cards excluded.
