EA FC 27 Wonderkids: Best Young Players for Career Mode by Position & Potential

Wonderkids are a big part of every football game. Players like Paul Pogba and Eden Hazard fulfilled their potential, while players like Bojan, Alexandre Pato, and Alan Dzagoev never did.

Finding one and growing them to their full potential is one of the most fun challenges you can take on in the FC 27 Career Mode. In this list, I’ll give you the top 5 wonderkids for each position, as well as the top 5 biggest potential climbers, going from a low overall to a high rating if played right in Career Mode.

Top attacker wonderkids in FC 27

Let’s look at the best wonderkids in attacking positions, starting with strikers.

Next up, left wingers.

And finally, players attacking down the right.

The right wing is definitely the strongest attacking position in terms of current ability for wonderkids. Strangely enough, the strikers are very underrepresented this year, with no real standouts in the category. Let’s head into the midfield.

Top midfielder wonderkids in FC 27

Let’s start with players who can play CAM. As you can see, Kenan Yıldız is one of the most versatile wonderkids in the game.

Let’s move on to central midfield, where PSG plays a really big role.

And finally, CDMs, where you’ll find World Cup sensation Ayyoub Bouaddi.

As you can see, there’s some excellent growth potential in a lot of midfield players in FC 27.

Top defender and goalkeeper wonderkids in FC 27

Let’s start out with right backs.

On the left side, the Premier League seems to have a strong future.

The CB ranks are led by Pau Cubarsí, who won the Best Young Player award at the World Cup.

And finally, the best young goalkeepers in the game, which is a pretty diverse crowd.

Finding a good defender wonderkid is probably going to be hard, given that it’s a position where more mature players usually excel. That said, some of these players are sure to take a big part in your career mode.

Best low-rating and cheap wonderkids

The top-rated wonderkids aren’t always the most fun. Let’s take a look at the 10 best wonderkids starting off as sub-75-rated cards. Some of these players can grow up to 22 rating points throughout their career.

Next, let’s take a look at the cheapest wonderkids in the game. I looked at players with at least 85 potential. I’m only looking at male players, since female player pricing is typically far lower. Here’s a breakdown:

Conclusion

This list will surely help, but remember — the most fun way to find a wonderkid in the game is through scouting and your academy.
