The Best CAM For Under 10K In EA FC 26
Still the GOAT after all these years, Gold Rare Lionel Messi is by far the best under 10K CAM in EA FC 26, as his Tiki Taka+ and well-known excellence when in possession can do a lot of heavy lifting. Like in the Argentine national team, Gold Rare Paolo Dybala is our main alternative for the role. We also consider him to be a premier pick when looking to simply have fun. After all, very few things can beat precise trivelas.
Although far from the meta, I also cannot help but include Gold Rare Dominik Szoboszlai here, as he carried me during my first weeks, can be used in multiple free PlayStyle evos, and costs less than 1K in the current market. You can check out an overview of all of the mentioned players, as well as another great alternative, below
| Player | Face Stats | PlayStyles | Price |

The Best CAM For Under 50K In EA FC 26
Providing a considerable jump in performance when compared to most of the above, Gold Rare Rose Lavelle is the best under 50K CAM in FC 26. The reason for that is pretty simple, since apart from carrying the meta Pinged Pass+, her high PAC/PAS/SHO stats see the USWNT legend excel in all roles within the position.
She is then followed by the newly released Ultimate Scream Thomas Müller, Gold Rare Jamal Musiala, and Gold Rare Debinha, which is a Skill Move specialist’s dream. Here’s an overview of all of the above players and their current price ranges, based on both our experience and the values shown in multiple databases:
| Player | Face Stats | PlayStyles | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gold Rare Rose Lavelle (87 OVR / CM) | 85 PAC, 81 SHO, 84 PAs, 87 DRI, 60 DEF, and 64 PHY | Pinged Pass+, Finesse Shot, Game Changer, Incisive Pass, Tiki Taka, Technical, and First Touch | 15K+ on both consoles and PC |
| Gold Rare Debinha (88 OVR / CAM) | 85 PAC, 79 SHO, 86 PAS, 91 DRI, 46 DEF, and 75 PHY | Trickster+, Acrobatic, Low Driven Shot, Game changer, Technical, First Touch, and Quick Step | 20K on both consoles and PC |
| Ultimate Scream Thomas Müller (86 OVR / CAM) | 83 PAC, 87 SHO, 86 PAS, 86 DRI, 60 DEF, and 75 PHY | Finesse Shot, Power Shot, Precision Header, Low Driven Shot, Pinged Pass, and Press Proven | 23K+ on consoles / 25K on PC |
| Gold Rare Jamal Musiala (88 OVR / CAM) | 80 PAC, 82 SHO, 80 PAS, 90 DRI, 66 DEF, and 65 PHY | Technical+, Precision Header, Low Driven Shot, Game changer, Incisive Pass, Inventive, and Trickster | 20K on both consoles and PC |
The Best Under 100K CAM In EA FC 26
Capable of excelling as a Playmaker via his ++ role and high PAS, as well as a technical dribbling beast, Gold Rare Florian Wirtz is the best pick for those looking for an under 100K CAM in EA FC 26. As a second option, we have Jude Bellingham, who makes up for his lack of passing-focused PlayStyles through a Gullit-like pairing of agility, shooting, and physicality. Do you want another reason to invest in him? Well, the Real Madrid star is also the game’s premier CM pick within the price range.
Make sure to also keep in mind that the above players are the only over 50K CAMs whose price ranges justify the upgrade when compared to Lavelle and Debinha. You can check out an overview of both below:
| Player | Face Stats | PlayStyles | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gold Rare Florian Wirtz (89 OVR / CAM) | 80 PAC, 82 SHO, 88 PAS, 90 DRI, 54 DEF, and 67 PHY | Incisive Pass+, Finesse Shot, Chip Shot, Low Driven Shot, Inventive, Technical, and First Touch | 100K on both consoles and PC |
