FIFA 19 best strikers - the best ST, CF, LF and RFs in - FIFA
The top strikers and forwards in FIFA 19 and where to find them.
The Best FIFA Strikers are the kings of the game's business end, and with this year opening up to a few more goals than previous editions, they'll play as important a role as they ever have.
Here on this page, we'll be listing FIFA 19's best strikers - which includes the Best FIFA ST, the Best FIFA CF, and the Best LFs and RFs, too, ranked in order of their overall rating.
Be sure to take also look at the specifics depending on what you want out of them, beyond the obvious points of Finishing, and Long Shots, and think about aspects like Ball Control and Short Passing if you prefer to play with two up top, or Heading and Strength if you like a big target man who's a threat in the air.
For other stats-based guides, it's worth taking a look at our list of the highest potential FIFA 19 wonderkids, plus we have pages on the best Goalkeepers, best Defenders, the best Midfielders and best Wingers in the game, too.
Without further ado then, let's dive in!

As we alluded to above, there are a few additional things to bear in mind when choosing your strikers and forwards in FIFA 19, with slightly different factors becoming more or less important depending on the mode and formation you're playing.
- For Career Mode, potential is important too - Some players have higher built-in potential for growth than others, and if you're planning on playing at least two seasons of Career Mode then it's going to have a major impact on your squad. It's also a great way to pick up a bargain, too, so if you're keen on finding some youngsters take the time to go over our detailed list of the best FIFA 19 potential wonderkids and young players, whcih includes some of the finest young strikers in the game. For Ultimate Team, remember you can use Chemistry Styles - Chemistry Styles, if you didn't know, add up to a whopping 90 points to your player's attributes, spread according to the Style you choose. You can read more on Chemistry in general in our guide to how FIFA Chemistry works, and likewise the best FIFA 19 Chemistry Styles in our detailed guide to those, too. Think about your style of play when looking at stats - We mentioned this briefly above, but certain strikers will of course work better in certain formations and styles. Strength, Heading, Ball Control and Short Passing suit target men, whilst Finishing is always useful, Long Shots suit CFs who work outside the box, and Acceleration and Sprint Speed do, of course, help you spread the pitch with pacey poachers sitting on the last man's shoulder.

The release of Football Manager 2019 is imminent, meaning its time to prepare for sleepless nights, cancel any social plans and acquaint yourself with the Bosnian second division.
Here are the best finishers in the new Football Manager.
Signed from Lyon this Summer, 17-year-old Willem Geubbels’ physical stats in Football Manager 2019 are loaded.
Acceleration, pace, strength and jumping all rank in the high teens.
Solid first touch, composure, finishing and passing make him a serious threat in the striking department.
Anyone who begins their Football Manager 2019 career as the manager of Aston Villa needn’t worry about signing a striker.
From the first minute of pre-season Tammy Abraham is banging in goals left, right and centre, typically finishing top goalscorer of the English Championship.
The Englishman typically doesn’t break into his parent club’s first team for the first two seasons, but still increases in value to a lofty £20m. Pace, strength and finishing are among his strongest stats.
Available for £5m early in the game, Florin Andone’s price quickly inflates to five times that after a couple of successful seasons.
With strong physical stats, a high work ethic and solid off the ball stats, Andone quickly grows into one of the English Premier League’s top goalscorers.
The Belgian forward may be in Liverpool’s shop window at the moment, but according to Football Manager 2019’s predictions the 23-year-old grows into one of the best strikers in the game.
After just two seasons Origi is typically worth over £50m with first touch, flair and pace all in the high teens.
Hamburg attacker Fiete Arp almost instantly becomes a prolific striker in Football Manager 2019, vying with Robert Lewandowski and co for the Bundesliga golden boot.
The German prodigy’s off the ball finishing and anticipation are all just shy of 2o after a season or two, making him deadly in front of goal.
Another player who doesn’t waste his time in lighting up the Bundesliga is Marcel Sabitzer.
The Austrian can be deployed either as a wide attacking midfielder or a striker, but his high finishing, stacked physical stats and aggression make him a complete and utter handful for opposition defences.
Watch his price climb to roughly £30m after a season or two.
The son of Atletico Madrid gaffer Diego Simeone, Argentinian Giovanni rapidly grows into one of the best strikers in the game.
Outstanding heading, anticipation and agility see him become a certified fox-in-the-box.
Available for £12-15m at the start of the game Everton can be deployed as an attacking midfielder but with impressive finishing, technique and flair the Brazilian can also be utilised as a flashy striker.
Be sure to sign him in the first season while he plays for Gremio, rather than waiting for him to be picked up by one of Europe’s big guns.
Expect his value to increase to the £50m mark after three seasons.
At 28 Sergi Enrich is hardly a wonderkid, but the Spaniard’s potential to tear up La Liga and beyond is massive.
After two seasons the Eibar forward is typically rivalling messrs Messi, Griezmann and Diego Costa for the golden boot.
Best of all clubs don’t need to break the bank to recruit the striker who is usually available for under £10m.
This young Brazilian is already making waves in the Bundesliga and if Football Manager’s predictions are anything to go by the lad is one to watch.
High finishing, first touch, technique, acceleration and long shots see Cunha become a prolific striker in this year’s edition of the game.
This Spaniard’s finishing talents are hardly a secret, especially since his arrival on loan at Borussia Dortmund from Barcelona.
In game the striker, however, typically wants to leave Barcela outright, which sees him available for a cut price after a couple of seasons.
High finishing, first touch and his off the ball stats are all in the mid to high teens making him worth every penny.
There were high hopes for Werner ahead of the Russia World Cup, but the Leipzig striker ultimately failed to fulfil those sky-high expectations.
Despite the setback, Werner has continued to impress for his club, scoring four goals so far this season.
In Football Manager magnificent physical stats, backed up with strong finishing and off the ball stats, make Werner the ultimate target man.
Willian Jose can be implemented as both an attacking midfielder and a striker, thriving in both positions.
Available for £10m at the start of the game, the Brazilian swiftly morphs into a player worth north of £50m. His long shots, technique and strength all stand out.
The Englishman was offloaded by Liverpool this season, but in Football Manager 2019 Danny Ings evolves into one of the deadliest strikers in the Premier League.
After a season or two the forward’s services are sought after by the likes of Man City.
The majority of his stats linger in the teens, with average pace the only slight let down.
Already known for his finishing and aggression north of the border, Colombian Alfredo Morelos is a raw talent at the start of Football Manager 2019.
The 22-year-old is blessed with sublime finishing, strength and aggression stats making him an absolute pest for rival defences.
Pick the striker up for less than £10m before his price inflates dramatically.
The Belgian’s time at Chelsea hasn’t quite gone to plan with loan spells to Borussia Dortmund and Valencia punctuating an indifferent spell at Stamford Bridge.
In Football Manager 2019, however, Batshuayi evolves into a sensational striker, with excellent finishing, composure and pace stats.
Expect his value to increase to around £40m after two seasons.
The Dutchman is another player who enjoyed a less than happy spell in the Premier League, exiting Old Trafford after just 33 appearances.
Depay has enjoyed a rebirth since his exit, however, scoring 30 goals in 82 appearances for Lyon.
In Football Manager the attacker’s sky-high technical and physical stats see Europe’s biggest clubs typically circling after a season or two.
Andrea Belotti has been a reliable source of goals for Torino since joining from Palermo.
And in Football Manager the Italian’s prolific nature increases further still with finishing, anticipation and off the ball stats all ranked in the high teens.
Purchase the Italian in the first season before his price increases to over £50m.
The son of Atletico Madrid gaffer Diego Simeone, Argentinian Giovanni rapidly grows into one of the best strikers in the game. Solid first touch, composure, finishing and passing make him a serious threat in the striking department.
There is perhaps nothing quite as exciting as a wonderkid striker bursting onto the world stage and quickly becoming a star.
Think of the hype that surrounded Kylian Mbappé during his breakout campaign at Monaco. Or, for those with longer memories, the anticipation every time an 18-year-old Michael Owen got on the ball for Liverpool
So it’s natural that when you begin your latest save on Football Manager 2019 that you go hunting for a wonderkid forward. After all, who doesn’t want a player who can make the difference in tight games for years to come?
Finding these wonderkids takes time, though, and not everyone has that. So we’re here to help.
We have already put together a list of the best wonderkid goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and wingers on this year’s edition of FM. And now we’ve got to the strikers…
For even the most seasoned of strikers, Serie A can be a tough nut to crack. So when Pellegri burst onto the scene at Genoa, scoring braces in the Italian top flight as a 16-year-old, Europe’s biggest sides quickly took notice.
Monaco moved quickest to sign the young striker, though, and he joined the Ligue 1 side in January 2018. It’s why you won’t be able to land him on FM19 before the 2018/19 campaign gets underway.
While Monaco will accept a bid of around £55million, Pellegri won’t be interested in departing. The following January is a different story.
His price-tag won’t have dropped but he is willing to leave and will want around £30,000-a-week and a role in the first-team squad.
The young striker, who has modelled his game on England star Harry Kane, was wanted by Bayern Munich in the summer following Hamburg’s relegation from the Bundesliga.
Yet instead of following many a young German talent in signing for the Bavarians, Arp decided to sign a new contract with HSV and set his aim on helping the club secure promotion back to the top flight.
However, on FM19 he is willing to depart if a fee can be agreed with cash-strapped Hamburg. The Germans will accept an offer of around £19million for the youngster and he will only require a weekly wage of £19,000.
A product of the Lyon academy, the 16-year-old forward had made only four appearances for OL before Monaco decided it was worth spending €20million to sign him in the summer.
As such you won’t be able to buy the French wonderkid straight from the off on FM19 as he won’t consider leaving his new club.
By January it’s hit and miss. There are occasions he is happy to discuss terms if Monaco accept a bid, which will have to be around £50million.
However, if he’s not ready to talk, wait a couple of months and go again. Geubbles will be open to a move ahead of the summer transfer window and will want a wage of around £22,000-a-week to make the switch.
The young Norwegian striker has already agreed to join RB Salzburg in January 2019, so you’ll have to be patient if you’re to land his signing.
Ahead of the 2019/20 season you can make your move. Salzburg will want a fee of around £11million for the teenager, which isn’t enough to scare off many midtable sides let alone the best in Europe.
His wage demands can be steep, however. He will want around £65,000-a-week while his agent will expect a fee of around £1.5million for his services.
Bayer have a number of wonderkids – as touched on here and here – and Paulinho is another to add to the list.
The German club paid Vasco da Gama €20million to sign the forward and he has only just arrived in the Bundesliga when you begin your save.
So, at that stage, there’s no chance he’ll leave. The following summer he will.
Bayer can be coaxed into selling for £55million and the young Brazilian will expect a wage of around £60,000-a-week and will want to be a rotation option.
Perhaps it’s because of the emergence of the likes of Frenkie de Jong, Matthijs de Ligt and Donny van de Beek that the hype around Dolberg has dwindled over the last year.
However, that is to your benefit on FM19. The Dane remains an excellent prospect and the ideal advanced forward for a side that plays possession football.
And best of all, Ajax are willing to let him depart for a fee of around £22million.
Given the Argentine has only just signed for PSV there is no point pursuing him from the off. He simply won’t be interested in a move.
So be patient, add him to your shortlist and return for the striker in January. The Dutch club are usually willing to sell for around £13million and Romero is far happier to engage in contract talks.
If you’re one of Europe’s biggest sides, he will happily accept the role of being a hot prospect and his wage demands will be in line with that; around £9,000-a-week.
What might be the smart move, though, is to allow him to finish the campaign with PSV where he is usually a regular in the first-team squad.
The Bundesliga is often seen as the ideal training ground for young talent. And, as a result, several wonderkids are given their opportunity to shine.
Eggestein is one such player. The Germany Under-21 international has been eased into the first-team picture at Werder Bremen this season but has impressed.
It’s why on FM19 he is one of the division’s most promising young strikers. And Werder know it.
They will want around £23million for Eggestein and may even ask for the option of loaning him back until the end of the 2018/19 campaign. You can, of course, remove that but expect the price to rise by a couple of million.
The 20-year-old won’t command huge wages, around £13,000-a-week, and his other demands are reasonable too.
The Serbian wonderkid, who recently scored five goals in a game, starts FM19 on a season-long loan at Eintracht Frankfurt from Benfica.
The German club have an option to make his signing permanent for around £10million and usually trigger this at the end of the campaign.
That means that Jović isn’t likely to be going anywhere until January 2020 at the earliest as he isn’t willing to depart his ‘new’ club so soon after joining.
You’ll have to play the long game to land the Serbian but he will certainly be worth the chase.
The Brazilian is one of the most promising talents in world football and that is reflected on FM19. Sadly, however, you’ll have an arduous mission to undertake if you want him to join your club.
Real Madrid already have a deal in place to sign Rodrygo, with the forward arriving in the Spanish capital in the summer of 2019. At that point, even if you were to have a mammoth bid accepted, he won’t want to leave his new club.
And so you will have to wait another year. By this point his value will, depending on how many games he’s played, hugely increased and Los Blancos won’t be willing to sell unless you stump up a fee in excess of £100million.
What might be the smart move, though, is to allow him to finish the campaign with PSV where he is usually a regular in the first-team squad. It’s why on FM19 he is one of the division’s most promising young strikers. And Werder know it.

Football Manager is back for another season as fans gear up to play the latest edition of one of the world's most popular management simulation games.
The full version of Football Manager 2019 is now live and available to play, so there is no need to wait in order to get started on a new campaign.
Whether you're attempting to win the Premier League with Manchester United or simply trying to bring your local team from the base of the football pyramid right to the top you need to be meticulous when it comes to scouting and transfer market dealings.
Despite Alan Hansen's famous line that you "can't win anything with kids" unearthing the next big thing can potentially make all the difference to a club, whether that is through on-field performances or the subsequent profit of selling them on.
Of course, it always helps if you've got a few recommendations to start with, so Goal takes a look at some of the best wonderkids to sign in Football Manager 2019 below.
If you're still playing Football Manager 2018, don't worry, you can check out our guide to the best young players to sign in that game here.
Note:
Players have been ranked using the FMScout rating system as a guide.
PA = Potential Ability
Players aged 20 and over excluded.
All ages are accurate as of the start of the game, not at the time of writing
The term 'wonderkid' is used to describe a young footballer with the potential to mature into a top level or world-class star.
In the Football Manager world, wonderkids can be identified by compiling scouting and coaching reports to discern the current and potential ability levels of an individual.
Being tagged as a wonderkid is not a definite indicator of future success though. Managers must nurture young players appropriately in order to get the best out of them.
Most goalkeepers don't reach their optimum level until the latter stages of their careers, but there are certainly plenty of youthful upstarts dotted across the game.
AC Milan's Gianluigi Donnarumma is a name that will be very familiar to football fans by now, given that he has been touted as the natural successor to Gianluigi Buffon for the past number of years.
Donnarumma is undoubtedly the top rated of all the wonderkid goalkeepers in the game and that is reflected in his price tag, which means only the biggest clubs will be able to lure him.
Gianluigi Donnarumma | 19 | Italy | AC Milan | -95 | £18.75m |
Alban Lafont | 19 | France | Fiorentina | -9 | £5m |
Gavin Bazunu | 16 | Rep. Ireland | Shamrock Rovers | -85 | £0.2m |
Andriy Lunin | 18 | Ukraine | Real Madrid | -85 | £0.07m |
Christian Fruchtl | 18 | Germany | Bayern Munich | -85 | £0.3m |
Mile Svilar | 18 | Belgium | Benfica | -85 | £0.2m |
Alessandro Plizzari | 18 | Italy | AC Milan | -85 | £0.6m |
Diogo Costa | 18 | Portugal | Porto | -85 | £0.28m |
Berke Ozer | 18 | Turkey | Fenerbahce | -8 | £0.35m |
Marcin Bulka | 18 | Poland | Chelsea | -8 | £0.02m |
However, there are many other options available to consider, including Alban Lafont, who is now Fiorentina's number one after joining from Ligue 1 side Toulouse, and recent Real Madrid acquisition Andiry Lunin.
Irish teen sensation Gavin Bazunu, who is set to join Manchester City, is a cheaper alternative, while Bayern Munich's Christian Fruchtl has spent that past few seasons as Manuel Neuer's understudy.
As with goalkeepers, it is rare to find teenagers occupying the first-team places at the highest level, but there are a few whose ability merits such responsibility.
Trent Alexander-Arnold's breakthrough season with Liverpool has seriously improved his reputation and he is one of the best young defenders in the game, along with Ajax's Matthijs de Ligt, RB Leipzig's Dayot Upamecano and Manchester United's Diogo Dalot.
Trent Alexander-Arnold | 19 | England | Liverpool | -95 | £27.5m |
Matthijs de Ligt | 18 | Netherlands | Ajax | -95 | £7.25m |
Dayot Upamecano | 19 | France | RB Leipzig | -95 | £6.75m |
Diogo Dalot | 19 | Portugal | Manchester United | -9 | £13.75m |
Josh Tymon | 19 | England | Stoke City | -85 | £0.75m |
Gian-Luca Itter | 19 | Germany | Wolfsburg | -85 | £2.1m |
Luca Pellegrini | 19 | Italy | Roma | -85 | £1.5m |
Alessandro Bastoni | 19 | Italy | Inter | -85 | £1.6m |
Juan Miranda | 18 | Spain | Barcelona | -85 | £1.2m |
Alexis Saelemaekers | 18 | Belgium | Anderlecht | -8 | £5.75m |
However, each of the aforementioned players will only be available to clubs who have the financial clout to sign them.
Fear not though, because the likes of Stoke City's Josh Tymon, Roma's Luca Pellegri and Barcelona's Juan Miranda, who are not too far behind in terms of potential, are much cheaper.
If you're managing a club with an abundance of prestige and money, then you will be able to splash out for some of the game's best young midfielders.
The Bundesliga is a particularly rich hunting ground, with likes of Bayer Leverkusen attacker Kai Havertz and Borussia Dortmund duo Jadon Sancho and Christian Pulisic among the wonderkid midfielders.
Manchester City teen Phil Foden has been turning heads at youth level for a number of seasons, but he has finally thrust himself onto Pep Guardiola's radar at the Etihad.
Joao Felix | 18 | Portugal | Benfica | -95 | £1.2m |
Kai Havertz | 19 | Germany | Bayer Leverkusen | -95 | £15.5m |
Phil Foden | 18 | England | Manchester City | -95 | £22.5m |
Jadon Sancho | 18 | England | Borussia Dortmund | -95 | £9.5m |
Sergio Gomez | 17 | Spain | Borussia Dortmund | -9 | £2.1m |
Ryan Gravenberch | 16 | Netherlands | Ajax | -9 | £0.25m |
Pelayo Morilla | 16 | Spain | Sporting Gijon | -9 | £0.23m |
Sandro Tonali | 18 | Italy | Brescia | -9 | £1.2m |
Gedson Fernandes | 19 | Portugal | Benfica | -9 | £4m |
Kangin Lee | 17 | South Korea | Valencia | -9 | £0.15m |
Mickael Cuisance | 18 | France | Borussia Monchengladbach | -9 | £4.3m |
Christian Pulisic | 19 | United States | Borussia Dortmund | -9 | £20.5m |
Ferran Torres | 18 | Spain | Valencia | -9 | £1.3m |
Exequiel Palacios | 19 | Argentina | River | -85 | £6.25m |
Elias Abouchabaka | 18 | Germany | RB Leipzig | -85 | £0.45m |
Bargain hunters will find that Portugal tends to be a rewarding market for young talent and it is no surprise that the Selecao won the 2018 UEFA U19 European Championship.
Benfica's Joao Felix has the potential to be one of the best attacking midfielders in the game and he can be picked up for a reasonable fee.
Ajax continue to produce the stars of tomorrow too, with Ryan Gravenberch touted for a bright future, while Dortmund's Sergio Gomez is certainly worth scouting.
It may seem strange to class Kylian Mbappe as a wonderkid at this stage, given that he has won a World Cup with France and rubs shoulders with Neymar at Paris Saint-Germain, but his age means that he is technically one in Football Manager.
Now, even though he arguably the best teenager in the game, unless you want to break the bank, it's unlikely that Mbappe will be high on your list of wonderkid signings. Luckily there are a spate of other options to choose from.
Those who have played Football Manager 2018 will be familiar with the likes of Fiete Arp, Moise Kean and Vinicius Junior, but there are some new attackers making enough waves at youth level to have earned wonderkid status.
Kylian Mbappe | 19 | France | PSG | -95 | £66m |
Rodrygo | 17 | Brazil | Santos / Real Madrid | -95 | £1.8m |
Pietro Pellegri | 17 | Italy | Monaco | -95 | £1.3m |
Vinicius Junior | 17 | Brazil | Real Madrid | -95 | £4.5m |
Fabio Silva | 15 | Portugal | Porto | -9 | £0.01m |
Amine Gouiri | 18 | France | Lyon | -9 | £0.8m |
Fiete Arp | 18 | Germany | Hamburg | -9 | £2.9m |
Abel Ruiz | 18 | Spain | Barcelona | -9 | £0.63m |
Juan Hernandez | 19 | Colombia | Watford | -9 | £8.5m |
Willem Geubbels | 16 | France | Monaco | -9 | £0.68m |
Moise Kean | 18 | Italy | Juventus | -9 | £2.5m |
Brenner | 18 | Brazil | Sao Paulo | -85 | £0.08m |
Ben Woodburn | 18 | Wales | Liverpool | -85 | £9.25m |
Troy Parrott | 16 | Rep. Ireland | Tottenham | -85 | £0.08m |
Willem Geubbels, who recently signed for Monaco, is one to keep an eye on, while Porto youngster Fabio Silva has the potential to be an excellent bargain signing.
France, Italy and Brazil seem to be producing the best young strikers, but there is some emergent talent in the Premier League in the form of Liverpool's Ben Woodburn and Tottenham's Troy Parrott.
Now, even though he arguably the best teenager in the game, unless you want to break the bank, it's unlikely that Mbappe will be high on your list of wonderkid signings. Luckily there are a spate of other options to choose from. Ajax continue to produce the stars of tomorrow too, with Ryan Gravenberch touted for a bright future, while Dortmund's Sergio Gomez is certainly worth scouting.
The work of a striker is to score goals, but at times, you just want some of those goals to be a bit more than just a simple goal. FIFA 19 came with several cool updates including timed-finish; a way of increasing shot accuracy and power. Let’s have a look at some of the best strikers in FIFA 19 with the potential to score that amazing goal you’ve been looking for!
10. Harry Kane (Spurs)
Harry Kane, England's captain and one of the PL's top strikers.
The English-man, Harry Kane plays for Tottenham Hotspurs as their first striker. He was dubbed to be a ‘one season wonder’ but has continuously proved all his critics wrong, long since winning the BPL's highest goal scorer consecutively and being a runner up once, captaining the English national team to the Semi-finals and winning the Golden Boot at last years FIFA World Cup.
- PACE: 70 DRIBBLING: 81 DEFENCE: 47 PHYSICALITY: 83 PASSING: 79 SHOOTING: 90
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT HARRY KANE?
- Kane is an all round striker; good with both his feet and his head, physical, tall, and still good on set pieces. As far as one time shots are applied, Kane is at the top when it comes to scoring from a first touch.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 75/100
9. PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG (ARSENAL)
Gabon's captain is one of the fastest strikers in the game.
The Arsenal striker became well known in his time at Borussia Dortmund having scored 98 goals before his move to the Emirates. He’s also the captain of the Gabonese team. Auba is a smart player and is mostly known for his high acceleration and pace.
- PACE: 94 DRIBBLING: 80 DEFENCE: 37 PHYSICALITY: 70 PASSING: 75 SHOOTING: 84
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT AUBAMEYANG?
- Aubameyang is one of the fastest players on FIFA 19, if not the fastest. He’s effective on counters with long balls, giving you enough time to choose how to score. You can easily shift Auba to the wing and he'll still be effective with just his pace.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 80/100
8. Edinson Cavani (PSG)
The Uruguayan striker is the clubs record goal scorer.
Being PSG's record goal scorer isn’t something you become from being average. While at Napoli, Cavani showed all his potential, winning the leagues top scorer in his 3rd season there before switching over to the giants of Paris. At 31 years of age, it doesn’t look like he’s planning to stop scoring anytime soon.
- DRIBBLING: 80 DEFENCE: 52 PHYSICALITY: 83 PASSING: 72 SHOOTING: 87
- Cavani is a “warrior” type player that doesn’t mind getting dirty or being in a good physical battle for the ball. Asides being strong, Cavani can play in any attacking role you might put him in and still be able to score from long or short distances with good accuracy.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 80/100
7. Antoine Griezmann (ATLÉTICO MADRID)
The World Cup winner, was named Man of The Match in the Finals match against Croatia.
At the age of 27, Antoine Griezmann has achieved more than most ever expected of him. The French striker was initially an all out winger, but was converted to a main Striker. He has since been named La Liga player of the year, won a Europa League, been nominated for FIFA's The Best Men’s Footballer, the Ballond'Or, UEFA Super Cup, and of course a World Cup where he was awarded a Silver Boot for the 2nd highest goals scored, and a Bronze Ball for the tournament's 3rd best player.
- DRIBBLING: 88 DEFENCE: 50 PHYSICALITY: 70 PASSING: 81 SHOOTING: 86
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT GRIEZMANN?
- With such a small stature he’s still such a threat when it comes to aerial balls into the box. Most left - footed players have high shot accuracy. This of course includes Antoine who’s also pacey and can comfortably play in several attacking positions.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 80/100
6. Romelu Lukaku (MANCHESTER UNITED)
The Belgian Striker finished joint 2nd in goals at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. (cc:Torres IMG)
The former Everton striker became the most expensive Belgian player of all time after his transfer to Old Trafford, home of Man United. He is currently Belgium’s all time leading goal scorer. He received the Bronze Ball in last years FIFA World Cup for being the joint 2nd highest goal scorer in the tournament, the Silver Ball being given to Antoine Griezmann who went on to win the tournament with France. Belgium went on to finish 3rd in the tournament.
- DRIBBLING: 75 DEFENCE: 35 PHYSICALITY: 87 PASSING: 76 SHOOTING: 84
- For someone of such a bulky size, Lukaku can still out pace a lot of defenders. The Belgian is a “power” striker, one of the most physical players, easily bullying past defenders with strength, pace, and a high shot power.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 85/100
5. Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
A goal scoring machine, and record Polish Player of The Year Awardee.
The Polish captain really came into footballing limelight during his time with Borussia Dortmund, especially in the UEFA Champions League. His time at Bayern hasn’t been any less impressive, winning the Bundesliga title his first 4 consecutive seasons, finishing as top scorer twice. Asides winning the Polish player of the year a record 7 tines in a row, one of his popular moments came in a match against Wolfsburg where he scored 5 goals in 9 minutes, the fastest in any major European League as far as records started being kept.
- PACE: 78 DRIBBLING: 85 DEFENCE: 41 PHYSICALITY: 82 PASSING: 75 SHOOTING: 89
WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT LEWANDOWSKI?
- Lewandowski is an all-round striker blessed with pace, physicality, positioning, heading, and yet still good with both feet and good at set pieces. Compared to a lot of top strikers, he’s talented at one touch shots.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 85/100
4. Kylian Mbappe (PSG)
Kylian Mbappe has been said to be one of the next players to potentially take the mantle of World's Best.
There’s a very good reason for this 20 years old to be the 2nd most expensive footballer ever. With great flare and enthusiasm, Kylian Mbappe took the world by storm after helping Monaco win their first Ligue 1 title in over 17 years. Paris Saint-Germain immediately picked him up and he immediately made an impact, slotting himself into the first team and scoring constantly. After achieving several personal landmarks at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which he went on to win with France, he was named the Best Young Player at the tournament, and finished the top joint 2ndhighest goal scorer.
- PACE: 96 DRIBBLING: 89 DEFENCE: 39 PHYSICALITY: 72 PASSING: 79 SHOOTING: 81
- The young ace may not primarily be a striker, but he can play as one comfortably depending on your formation. Mbappe is one of the fastest players on FIFA 19, with a pace even greater than Aubameyang's. Speed asides, Mbappe is one of the most direct players you can find, thus the low defensive stats. Also, he has a 5- star skills rating.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 90/100
3. Luis Suarez (BARCELONA)
Luis Suarez has won the top scorer in every league he has played in as a pro.
Less appreciative sports spectators will mainly remember Luis Suarez for his biting incident on Italian defender Chiellini at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, but this doesn’t stop the fact that he is without doubt, one of the most proficient strikers in football history. He has won 2 European Golden Shoe awards, an Eredivisie Golden Boot, a Premier League Golden Boot, broke Ronaldo and Messi's 6 year dominance by winning the Pichichi for La Liga's top scorer in 2016, and is Uruguay’s all time leading goal scorer.
- PACE: 80 DRIBBLING: 87 DEFENCE: 52 PHYSICALITY: 85 PASSING: 79 SHOOTING: 90
- El Pistolero, as some call him, is FIFA 19’s highest rated all out striker with a rating of 91. His greatest threat comes from his positioning and attacking prowess. Not the fastest of strikers, but he’ll easily take on any defender in a 50-50 battle for the ball.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 95/100
2. Lionel Messi (BARCELONA)
Time after time, Leo Messi has proved he's amongst the best to have ever been on a pitch.
Considered by many as the Best Player in the world, possibly of all time, Leo Messi has constantly dished out year after year of unbelievable performances. The footballing world has gotten tired of listing out individual and team records he breaks or surpasses every other match. Perhaps, the only achievement he hasn’t accomplished is a trophy as a senior player for Argentina, though coming close on several occasions.
- PACE: 88 DRIBBLING: 96 DEFENCE: 32 PHYSICALITY: 61 PASSING: 88 SHOOTING: 91
- Messi is one of the most versatile players on FIFA 19. Known for his wing play, he can make a very good striker or even as an attacking or central midfielder depending on your formation. Leo Messi along side Cr7 is the highest rated player on FIFA 19, being one of the best dribblers and shooters both in-game and in reality.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 98/100
1. Cristiano Ronaldo (JUVENTUS)
Cristiano inspires hard work and constant determination into his vast fanbase.
Along side Leo Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo (cr7) is seen as one of the best players in the world. Bringing both flare and positivity to the footballing world, he proved how good he was at England for Manchester United, did likewise with Real Madrid in the La Liga winning 3 consecutive UCL titles, and is currently amongst the top scorers in just his first season for Juventus.
- PACE: 90 DRIBBLING: 90 DEFENCE: 35 PHYSICALITY: 79 PASSING: 81 SHOOTING: 93
- As far as games are concerned, Ronaldo has been one of those players that can score from odd distances and impossible angles, with high shot power. You can play Cr7 in any attacking position and he’d still perform brilliantly. He’s an all round player, good with his head, good with both feet, has high acceleration, and high shot power and accuracy.
STRIKING POWER RATING: 98/100
Being a top striker has so much attached to it. Getting special and spectacular goals is one of those things. There are so many good strikers out there, but if you’re looking for that extra something, those listed above are what you need. A few honorable mentions include: Marcus Rashford, Sergio Aguero, Gonzalo Higuain, and Dries Mertens.
Being PSG's record goal scorer isn’t something you become from being average. While at Napoli, Cavani showed all his potential, winning the leagues top scorer in his 3rd season there before switching over to the giants of Paris. At 31 years of age, it doesn’t look like he’s planning to stop scoring anytime soon.

Our discussion herein centers on the Top 10 Best Strikers in the World 2019 . Importantly, this evaluation is based on most recent statistics which include the players’ performances in the previous season.
The duo of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have always featured among the world’s best forwards but again, it is fascinating to check out the other star athletes who occupy this list of Top 10 Best Strikers in the World.
1. | Luiz Suarez | Barcelona | Uruguay |
2. | Cristiano Ronaldo | Juventus | Portugal |
3. | Lionel Messi | Barcelona | Argentina |
4. | Sergio Aguero | Manchester City | Argentina |
5. | Harry Kane | Tottenham Hotspur | England |

7. | Kylian Mbappe | Paris-Saint Germain | France |
8. | Robert Lewandowski | Bayern Munich | Poland |
9. | Gonzalo Higuain | Chelsea | Argentina |
10. | Edison Cavani | Paris-Saint Germain | Uruguay |
Short details on each player
Recently moved to Juventus and already gaining his form. The legendary goalscorer came second on the previous list of FIFA world ranking. Back in Madrid, Ronaldo manages to be among the best strikers in the world particularly in view of his tremendous efforts which helped his side in claiming both La Liga and the UCL in the previous season 2016/2017. At the time, Madrid’s coach –Zinedine Zidane –encouraged Ronaldo to focus more attention on important matches by limiting his presence in less important matches. Fortunately, this yielded a remarkable outcome for the star forward.
In Madrid’s final five UCL matches for 2016/2017 season, Ronaldo bagged 10 goals which eventually helped his team in claiming its twelfth UCL glory. Also in the domestic arena, Ronaldo’s brilliant goal-scoring tally contributed to Madrid’s La Liga triumph over Barcelona in 2016/2017 season. Following his brilliant overall performances in the previous season, Ronaldo claimed the Ballon d’Or for the fifth time, placing him on a par with his greatest rival –Lionel Messi.
Messi’s performances in the previous season were awesome but the Catalan star couldn’t clinch more than a single trophy, being Copa del Rey. At the expense of Messi and his side [Barcelona], Real Madrid triumphed both in La Liga and the UCL. Though Messi claimed a better goal-scoring edge above C. Ronaldo in La Liga, the Argentine lost last season’s Ballon d’Or.
Lionel Messi – Second Best Footballer In The World
Currently, Lionel Messi is on a remarkable form this season, scoring at a great pace. Quite frankly, the star forward is on the right path to fight for the next Ballon d’Or.
For years, Sergio Aguero has been Man City’s top goal scorer. He is undoubtedly one of the best strikers in the EPL. With the arrival of Gabriel Jesus in the previous year, Aguero was left out of his club’s starting XI and this nearly threw his Man City career into confusion. Aguero is no doubt a prolific goal scorer but his recurring injury spells have almost struck him out of Pep Guardiola’s starting XI.
Sergio Aguero
Meanwhile, Argentine star Sergio Aguero is an outstanding forward who focuses more on scoring goals which place his club at the top level in the EPL. For the current EPL season, he has proven to be Man City’s top forward.
Previous season, Aguero took his goal-scoring tally to 32 goals, drawing him very close to Alan Shearer’s record of 36 goals. In the first half of the current EPL campaign (2017/18), Aguero had the total of 12 goals and this placed his side [Man City] clearly above other EPL sides. Towards the end of 2017, Aguero reached a significant milestone as Man City’s all-time top scorer after having displaced the 78-year-old record of 177 goals previously set by Eric Brook.
Harry Kane is Tottenham’s sharpshooter and top scorer. For two consecutive seasons, he bagged the EPL’s golden boot and without any doubt, his remarkable form keeps him amongst the world’s best strikers. In 1995, Alan Shearer reached a milestone of 36 EPL goals, making him the first EPL player to do this in a calendar year. However, Harry Kane’s impressive goal-scoring form earned him a total of 39 EPL goals in a calendar year. With this, Harry Kane broke Alan Shearer’s long-standing record and further emerged last season’s highest goal scorer in the English Premier League.
Harry Kane
Whenever he is in the game, Harry Kane proves his striking profession and links up brilliantly with his teammates. So far in his career, he is yet to receive a silverware but considering that he has been on Real Madrid’s radar, a move to the Los Blancos’ side should grant him his first silverware.
Prior to the start of the previous season, Neymar completed a mouthwatering move to PSG in a deal attracting the highest transfer fee in the history of football. Though Neymar left Barcelona amidst slight controversies, the Brazilian star would be remembered for his remarkable contributions –particularly his outstanding performance at a UCL match which saw Barcelona thrash PSG 5 goals to 1. Meanwhile, his performance herein had a hand in PSG’s strong determination to add him to their squad.
Having completed his ground-shaking move to the biggest-spending German side, Neymar ended the year 2017 with a total of 27 assists and 29 goals for the duo of PSG and Barcelona. Considering his magnificent contributions to PSG’s squad so far, Neymar has been described as one of the aspiring Ballon d’Or winners in the nearest future. Currently a 26-years-old, Neymar has enough time to add great achievements to his career and he is undoubtedly one of the best forwards in football.
Robert Lewandowski is Bayern’s forward and the most important goal scorer in the German team. In the previous season, Lewandowski narrowly escaped being defeated by Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the fight for Bundesliga’s golden boot. Lewandowski –who frequently bagged goals in every competition –emerged as Bundesliga’s highest goal scorer for 2016/17. Coming behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, Lewandowski emerged as the third highest goal scorer in last season’s UCL.
Robert Lewandoski
Undoubtedly, Lewandowski perfectly fits into the class of the world’s best centre-forwards. Precisely, his remarkable performances contributed to Poland’s first World Cup qualification since 2006. As regards scoring goals, only a few players do it better than Lewandowski. Irrespective of fact that Lewandowski is surrounded by important playmakers like Frank Ribery and Arjen Robben, the Polish forward proves to be a complete footballer.
Gonzalo Higuain recently moved to Chelsea, formerly Juventus’ top striker and his move from Napoli to Juventus signified that some clubs wouldn’t mind selling their best players to domestic rivals. Following the completion of his £75m move to Juventus, Higuain performed remarkably and finished his first season at Juventus with the total of 24 goals. Fortunately, his goals contributed to Juventus’ Serie A triumph for the 6 th consecutive season. Besides their outstanding Serie A performances for 2016/2017, Juventus succeeded in securing a spot in the final of the UEFA Champions League. However, in the final match, the Old Ladies suffered defeat at the hands of Spanish giants Real Madrid.
Gonzalo Higuain – Best Strikers In The World
In his 12 UCL appearances for 2016/17 season, Higuain recorded the total of 5 goals which included two goals during Juventus’ triumph over Monaco in the first leg of the semi-finals.
Edinson Cavani is an Uruguayan star and PSG’s topmost striker. Though he has been criticized a number of times, Edinson Cavani’s prolific goal-scoring record speaks well of him. Prior to Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s summer move to Man United in 2016, Edinson Cavani didn’t have enough chance to prove himself as PSG’s most important scorer. But with the former’s absence, Cavani has been able to stand his ground as PSG’s top scorer bagging impressive 35 goals in 36 appearances.
Edinson Cavani
Not On The List
Aubameyang is precisely one of the best strikers in the world of football. He is most acclaimed for his last season goal-scoring tally which earned him 31 goals in 32 Bundesliga matches. This was apparently his best season and the crucial reason which triggered Arsenal’s interest in signing him. Prior to his move to the EPL, Aubameyang competed fiercely with Bayern’s Lewandowski for Bundesliga’s golden boot of 2016/17. Though Lewandowski defeated him in the battle, Aubameyang has been highly rated for his beautiful goal-scoring record.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Despite having Aubameyang in its squad, Gabon was eliminated during the group stage of last year’s AFCON competition. Gabon’s poor performance as the host of the competition was apparently one of Aubameyang’s flaws.
Mauro Icardi is currently the most important goal scorer for his Serie A side Inter Milan. Sometimes in 2016, Icardi’s Inter Milan spell was nearly given a blow when the forward criticized his club’s radicals. In the course of this controversy, Icardi was reported to have written the words “I will bring 100 criminals from Argentina who will kill them on the spot’’. Had he been an average or less important player, Icardi might have found it difficult to secure his stay in Inter Milan’s squad. But thanks to his goal-scoring proficiency and his apologetic statement to Inter Milan’s fans.
Mauro Icardi
For 2016/2017 season, Icardi’s brilliant form earned him an impressive tally of 27 goals. Meanwhile, some of these goals came as hat-tricks against AC Milan, Fiorentina and Atlanta. So far so good, Mauro Icardi is one of the Top Best Strikers in the World .

There is perhaps nothing quite as exciting as a wonderkid striker bursting onto the world stage and quickly becoming a star.
Think of the hype that surrounded Kylian Mbappé during his breakout campaign at Monaco. Or, for those with longer memories, the anticipation every time an 18-year-old Michael Owen got on the ball for Liverpool
So it’s natural that when you begin your latest save on Football Manager 2019 that you go hunting for a wonderkid forward. After all, who doesn’t want a player who can make the difference in tight games for years to come?
Finding these wonderkids takes time, though, and not everyone has that. So we’re here to help.
We have already put together a list of the best wonderkid goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and wingers on this year’s edition of FM. And now we’ve got to the strikers…
For even the most seasoned of strikers, Serie A can be a tough nut to crack. So when Pellegri burst onto the scene at Genoa, scoring braces in the Italian top flight as a 16-year-old, Europe’s biggest sides quickly took notice.
Monaco moved quickest to sign the young striker, though, and he joined the Ligue 1 side in January 2018. It’s why you won’t be able to land him on FM19 before the 2018/19 campaign gets underway.
While Monaco will accept a bid of around £55million, Pellegri won’t be interested in departing. The following January is a different story.
His price-tag won’t have dropped but he is willing to leave and will want around £30,000-a-week and a role in the first-team squad.
The young striker, who has modelled his game on England star Harry Kane, was wanted by Bayern Munich in the summer following Hamburg’s relegation from the Bundesliga.
Yet instead of following many a young German talent in signing for the Bavarians, Arp decided to sign a new contract with HSV and set his aim on helping the club secure promotion back to the top flight.
However, on FM19 he is willing to depart if a fee can be agreed with cash-strapped Hamburg. The Germans will accept an offer of around £19million for the youngster and he will only require a weekly wage of £19,000.
A product of the Lyon academy, the 16-year-old forward had made only four appearances for OL before Monaco decided it was worth spending €20million to sign him in the summer.
As such you won’t be able to buy the French wonderkid straight from the off on FM19 as he won’t consider leaving his new club.
By January it’s hit and miss. There are occasions he is happy to discuss terms if Monaco accept a bid, which will have to be around £50million.
However, if he’s not ready to talk, wait a couple of months and go again. Geubbles will be open to a move ahead of the summer transfer window and will want a wage of around £22,000-a-week to make the switch.
The young Norwegian striker has already agreed to join RB Salzburg in January 2019, so you’ll have to be patient if you’re to land his signing.
Ahead of the 2019/20 season you can make your move. Salzburg will want a fee of around £11million for the teenager, which isn’t enough to scare off many midtable sides let alone the best in Europe.
His wage demands can be steep, however. He will want around £65,000-a-week while his agent will expect a fee of around £1.5million for his services.
Bayer have a number of wonderkids – as touched on here and here – and Paulinho is another to add to the list.
The German club paid Vasco da Gama €20million to sign the forward and he has only just arrived in the Bundesliga when you begin your save.
So, at that stage, there’s no chance he’ll leave. The following summer he will.
Bayer can be coaxed into selling for £55million and the young Brazilian will expect a wage of around £60,000-a-week and will want to be a rotation option.
Perhaps it’s because of the emergence of the likes of Frenkie de Jong, Matthijs de Ligt and Donny van de Beek that the hype around Dolberg has dwindled over the last year.
However, that is to your benefit on FM19. The Dane remains an excellent prospect and the ideal advanced forward for a side that plays possession football.
And best of all, Ajax are willing to let him depart for a fee of around £22million.
Given the Argentine has only just signed for PSV there is no point pursuing him from the off. He simply won’t be interested in a move.
So be patient, add him to your shortlist and return for the striker in January. The Dutch club are usually willing to sell for around £13million and Romero is far happier to engage in contract talks.
If you’re one of Europe’s biggest sides, he will happily accept the role of being a hot prospect and his wage demands will be in line with that; around £9,000-a-week.
What might be the smart move, though, is to allow him to finish the campaign with PSV where he is usually a regular in the first-team squad.
The Bundesliga is often seen as the ideal training ground for young talent. And, as a result, several wonderkids are given their opportunity to shine.
Eggestein is one such player. The Germany Under-21 international has been eased into the first-team picture at Werder Bremen this season but has impressed.
It’s why on FM19 he is one of the division’s most promising young strikers. And Werder know it.
They will want around £23million for Eggestein and may even ask for the option of loaning him back until the end of the 2018/19 campaign. You can, of course, remove that but expect the price to rise by a couple of million.
The 20-year-old won’t command huge wages, around £13,000-a-week, and his other demands are reasonable too.
The Serbian wonderkid, who recently scored five goals in a game, starts FM19 on a season-long loan at Eintracht Frankfurt from Benfica.
The German club have an option to make his signing permanent for around £10million and usually trigger this at the end of the campaign.
That means that Jović isn’t likely to be going anywhere until January 2020 at the earliest as he isn’t willing to depart his ‘new’ club so soon after joining.
You’ll have to play the long game to land the Serbian but he will certainly be worth the chase.
The Brazilian is one of the most promising talents in world football and that is reflected on FM19. Sadly, however, you’ll have an arduous mission to undertake if you want him to join your club.
Real Madrid already have a deal in place to sign Rodrygo, with the forward arriving in the Spanish capital in the summer of 2019. At that point, even if you were to have a mammoth bid accepted, he won’t want to leave his new club.
And so you will have to wait another year. By this point his value will, depending on how many games he’s played, hugely increased and Los Blancos won’t be willing to sell unless you stump up a fee in excess of £100million.
However, on FM19 he is willing to depart if a fee can be agreed with cash-strapped Hamburg. The Germans will accept an offer of around £19million for the youngster and he will only require a weekly wage of £19,000. Yet instead of following many a young German talent in signing for the Bavarians, Arp decided to sign a new contract with HSV and set his aim on helping the club secure promotion back to the top flight.

Obviously, Cristiano Ronaldo is the best striker but only a few can pay for his price. Hopefully, this league has at least three other amazing strikers: Higuaín, who is a goal machine; Mertens, is faster, has a bad header but plays a lot for the team; and Immobile, who is a kind of mix of the other two.
For lower budgets, there are also quality options like Icardi or Alejandro Gómez.
