Table of Contents
Premier League
Erling Haaland
Unsurprisingly, the Premier League’s top prospect is Manchester City’s unstoppable goal machine, Erling Haaland. With a potential of 92, he is the ultimate long-term investment for any club that can afford him.
At just 23, he’s already one of the best strikers in the world with a 90 Overall Rating. His stats are simply terrifying for defenders: 94 Shot power, 96 Finishing, and 95 Att. Position mean that if he gets a chance, the ball is hitting the back of the net.
Serie A
Alessandro Bastoni
Inter’s Alessandro Bastoni is the kind of defender who makes strikers sweat. At 25, he’s already a wall with an 87 overall, and he’s only getting better (hello, 89 potential).
His 87 Defensive Awareness means he reads the game like a book, while 89 Jumping and 86 Heading Accuracy make him a monster in the air. Good luck scoring headers against this guy in EA FC 25.
Mike Maignan
Mike Maignan is AC Milan’s guardian, and at 28, he’s in his prime with an 87 overall that could hit 89 potential. His 88 GK Reflexes are pure cat-like, while 84 GK Diving lets him pull off those “how’d he save that?” moments.
Plus, his 85 GK Kicking means he’s not just a shot-stopper—he’s launching counter-attacks like a pro. He is a perfect goalkeeper for EA FC 25 Career Mode.
LALIGA
Lamine Yamal
LaLiga is home to arguably the most exciting prospect in world football, Lamine Yamal. At just 16 years old, he already possesses an incredible 86 Overall Rating, but it’s his jaw-dropping 95 potential that sets him apart as a true generational talent.
The FC Barcelona winger is a wizard on the ball, with 91 Dribbling, 88 Ball control, and 86 Acceleration, making him virtually unstoppable in one-on-one situations. He is a strong candidate for the Ballon D’or in the coming years.
Bundesliga
Jamal Musiala
Jamal Musiala is Bayern’s golden boy, and at 21, he’s already a midfield maestro with an 88 overall and 92 potential. And let’s not forget that he shares Bellingham’s role on the cover of EA FC 26.
His 94 Dribbling and 94 Agility let him glide past defenders like they’re cones, while 93 Balance keeps him steady even in tight spots. Whether he’s at CAM, LM, or CM, he’s a nightmare to mark.
Florian Wirtz
Florian Wirtz is Leverkusen’s playmaking wizard, already at 89 overall with room to hit 92 potential. His 91 Short Passing and 91 Vision make him a passing genius, while 90 Dribbling lets him dance through defenses.
At 21, he’s got the keys to the attack—whether as a CAM or ST, he’s pulling the strings. I love this hardworking player and would love to have him in my EA FC 25 Career Mode squad.
Ligue 1
João Neves
João Neves is PSG’s midfield engine, and at 19, he’s already a beast with an 84 overall and 90 potential. A strong player who can handle tough, long matches and is ideal for career mode.
His 90 Stamina means he runs forever, while 85 Composure and 86 Ball Control keep him cool under pressure. Whether you need a CM or CDM, he’s your guy—tough, smart, and built for the big stage.
Désiré Doué
Désiré Doué is PSG’s next big thing, versatile as anything at LW, RW, or CM. At 19, his 81 overall rating is just the start—he’s got 90 potential in the tank. With 89 Dribbling and 85 Acceleration, he’s a slippery customer, and his 84 Shot Power means he can finish with a bang.
This kid’s a Swiss Army knife of talent. Poised to break through in EA SPORTS FC 26, this PSG prodigy will add depth and flair wherever you deploy him.
Final Whistle
These players aren’t just good—they’re the future. With potentials soaring into the 90s, they’re the ones who’ll be headlining FC 26 and beyond.
Whether you’re stacking your Career Mode squad or hunting for Ultimate Team bargains, keep an eye on these names. They’re not just rising stars—they’re about to take over.
