An Ultimate Team favourite when it comes to Bundesliga wingers, Kingsley Coman's new card looks unreal.

Thanks to his 93 pace, he's going to breeze his way past pretty much every defender on the game, and his 88 dribbling will ensure you feel every bit of that acceleration and sprint speed.

19. Ousmane Dembele - 93

If Ousmane Dembele's 93 pace and 86 dribbling aren't enough for you, how about his 5* skills and 5* weak foot?

With those attributes in his locker, the Barcelona man stands to be one of the most dangerous wingers on the game.

18. Rafa - 94

He's been a cheap beast for a good few years now, and Benfica star Rafa will definitely keep that status this year.

Rafa boasts 94 pace and 86 dribbling, so he'd make an absolutely devastating super sub, and if you're building a Portuguese league side, he's a must for your squad.

17. Takeshi Kanamori - 94

After spending the last five FIFAs as a striker, Japanese speedster Takeshi Kanamori is now using his 94 pace as a right midfielder.

With 71 physicality and 67 dribbling on his card as well, Kanamori could well be one of the best bronze cards on the market.

16. Rhayner - 94

There's an air of nostalgia about Rhayner's card. He was a regular in Brazilian silver teams back in FIFA 14, and eight years later, his card still looks as scary as ever.

He's faster than he has ever been and also boasts 71 dribbling and 4* skills. If you're looking for a silver right winger, he's your man.

15. Linton Maina - 94

He's only been on FIFA for four years, but Linton Maina has made a real splash in the silver community because of his outstanding pace.

A German in his country's third tier, Maina's pace is higher than ever and his dribbling stats are just the icing on the cake.

14. Tom Barkhuizen - 94

Introduced to FIFA back in 2011 as a 48-rated striker with 65 pace, it's safe to say that Tom Barkhuizen has been moving up in the world ever since.

Now with a whopping 94 pace to his name, Barkhuizen looks to be an absolute machine, and his high stamina will ensure he can keep the afterburners on all game.

13. Gerrit Holtmann - 94

Flying the flag for the Philippines is Bochum winger Gerrit Holtmann, who is now his country's highest-rated player after switching his nationality from Germany.

Holtmann has been breezing past defenders in Germany for a good few years now and looks set to do the same in FIFA 22.

12. Chidera Ejuke - 94

Chidera Ejuke has dropped back to a silver card this year after sneaking into gold in FIFA 21, so he's now one of the tastiest-looking silvers around.

The CSKA Moscow winger has a huge 94 pace and a comparatively high 78 dribbling, which includes some unreal agility and balance stats. This looks like a fun card.

11. Georges-Kevin Nkoudou - 94

Former Tottenham winger Georges-Kevin Nkoudou has seen his pace given another tidy boost for FIFA 22.

Now playing for Besiktas, Nkoudou can tear down the left wing with his 94 pace, and his 4* weak foot means he's just as dangerous taking it down the line as he is cutting inside on his favoured right.

10. Frank Acheampong - 94

A super sub in most budget sides in the early stages of the game, Frank Acheampong's qualities are well known to most FIFA players.

He's a modest 77 overall, but the Ghanaian boasts outstanding pace and dribbling, and both his shooting and physicality can hold their own against your average defender. Seeing Acheampong come on after an hour is the stuff of nightmares.

9. Ismaila Sarr - 94

Expect to see Ismaila Sarr in almost every Premier League starter team around.

Now back in the English top flight, the Watford winger has an outstanding combination of speed and skill, and importantly, he won't break the bank either. Buying him is a no-brainer.

8. Moussa Diaby - 94

Long tipped for superstardom, Bayer Leverkusen sensation Moussa Diaby has one of the most fascinating Ultimate Team cards around.

94 pace, 85 dribbling and 4* skills all sound fantastic, and an in-form or two could easily make this card unstoppable.

7. Inaki Williams - 94

Inaki Williams puts the 'athletic' in Athletic Club.

The club legend has a ridiculous 94 pace but combines that with 88 jumping, 82 strength and a towering 6'1 frame. The Spanish striker has enough about him to beat all sorts of defenders.

6. Vinicius Junior - 95

Real Madrid starlet Vinicius Junior has been handed well-deserved boosts to both his shooting and dribbling, making his card even scarier than it was last year.

He's already picked up an insane in-form card, and if he keeps playing like he has been, there could be plenty more special cards for Vinicius in the near future.

5. Achraf Hakimi - 95

Having spent the past few seasons proving himself as arguably the best wing-back on the planet, Achraf Hakimi has been given a card which reflects that status.

Every stat on his card is above 70, with most closer to the 80 mark, but his 95 pace definitely stands out from the bunch.

4. Daniel James - 95

Fans of English football have known about Daniel James' superhuman speed for a while now.

Having joined Leeds United in the summer, the hope is that the young Welshman will have the platform to strut his stuff over the coming season, and he's perhaps one or two in-forms away from hitting 99 pace.

3. Alphonso Davies - 96

With 96 pace and 82 dribbling, expect to see Alphonso Davies in nearly every Bundesliga side around.

The dream wing-back, Davies also brings 4* skills and a 4* weak foot, so don't be afraid to cut inside on his right and put defenders on toast with his insane speed.

2. Adama Traore - 96

Having 96 pace and 87 strength feels like a cheat code, but that's just what Adama Traore is about.

The Wolves winger is an unstoppable force of nature, and when he inevitably starts racking up the special cards, he's going to be one of the scariest players on the game.

1. Kylian Mbappe - 97

Sitting atop the speed charts is none other than Kylian Mbappe, who has been handed a whopping 97 pace.

This is the fastest base card Mbappe has ever had, but that's just one of the reasons why he's 91-rated. Everything about his card is stunning, and if you're lucky enough to get him in your squad, you're guaranteed to feel the difference.
