FIFA 21 Career Mode: Best Young Players & Highest Potential Players

FIFA 21 is just a few weeks from launch and EA Sports has begun releasing information on all the core modes. Following the ratings of all the Ultimate Team players, the Career Mode news has started to come out, starting with the Highest Potential Young Players. If you’re wondering who to buy to future proof your squad or make some profit, here are the Best Young Players and Highest Potential Players in FIFA 21 Career Mode.

Potential in Career Mode works in the same way in FIFA 21 as it always has. As you perform well with players, win matches, and train them in the right way, players will improve, seeing their overall rating go up.

A player’s potential rating is the max overall rating they can reach in their career. Some will increase more than others, but not many will reach the absolute max overalls.
