Into the Spotlight Season rewards for FIFA 23

For this season, there are no Storyline players that are set for reaching Levels 15 and 30. The only guaranteed player item that can be received from this season is at Level 30. Users will have the option to choose from one of two different versions of youngster Folarin Balogun from Stade de Rennais. Let’s take a look at the two versions.

Folarin Balogun (ST)

• Skill Moves: 4-star
• Weak Foot: 4-star
• Alternative Positions: CAM, CF

Folarin Balogun (LW)

• Skill Moves: 4-star
• Weak Foot: 4-star
• Alternative Positions: LM, CF, RW

Recommendations

Both are 87 OVR, and both have the same Skill Moves and Weak Foot attributes. But, there are differences. The LW version does have better Pace, Dribbling, Shooting, and Physical stats. The striker version, on the other hand, has better Shooting stats. Both versions have the same Defending attributes.

In our opinion, it’s hard to pass up on the LW version of Balogun, just from the fact that it is faster and has better attributes. Sure, it can be used in the ST position. But, the LW one is more versatile, and has a great mix of stats for a LW or RW.
