This is the best Ligue 1 starter squad to use in FUT 23. Even if you might not be able to afford Neymar and Mbappe straight away, there are plenty of great players to choose from!
The French Ligue 1 has become a more popular league to use in recent seasons, thanks to the superstars at PSG. However, Ligue 1 has plenty of hidden gems for starter teams too.
Of course, it is also easy to upgrade your Ligue 1 squad in FIFA 23 once you get started too, and you’ll definitely be saving a while before you can get Neymar and Mbappe.
We’ve put together 3 different Ligue 1 teams for you to use in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team. A low-cost option, a mid-price team, and a squad if you’ve got unlimited coins!
Although, it’s essential you know how the new FUT 23 chemistry system works first. Some of these squads require the use of position modifiers!
