FUT Club AIBest cheap FC 27 central midfielders for every budget
The highest estimated meta among natural central midfielders with a recent observed price at each budget, plus cards that play above their rating.
PC catalogue prices. This guide refreshes every 15 minutes; listings and prices can change in FC. Held last listings, estimated or stale prices, and unpriced or untradeable cards are excluded.
Estimated meta is our estimate of how a card plays a role at full chemistry, not an EA rating. Δ OVR compares that estimate with the average card of the same OVR at this position; it is not meta minus OVR. Small differences are not a promise of better gameplay. How the estimates work

Every budget is shown, including budgets with the same best card. Ties use the cheaper card, then its catalogue ID. Ratings at positions the card cannot naturally play are not compared.
