Top 10 U21 players with the highest potential in EA FC 24

Three Spanish stars feature on the list

The latest edition of the annual football game (EA FC 24) is out and available for players around the globe after the 29 September release. Although publisher Electronic Arts have parted ways with FIFA, this has created more buzz around this year's release. The game is available for PC, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4, PS5 and even Nintendo Switch. Apart from the Nintendo version, all others are priced at £69.99 in the UK. The Nintendo one sells for £59.99.

Apart from the Ultimate team, one of the most celebrated ways of playing EA FC 24 is the career mode. Be it as a player or a manager dealing with all the nuances of the squad, club and its vision. With the game out and players getting into the grove in their preferred console, one aspect of the career mode game is the tempting potential of young players. We now go through the top 10 U21 players with the highest potential in EA FC 24:

10. Eduardo Camavinga - 89

The Frenchman made headlines in the summer of 2021 by moving to the prestigious first team of Real Madrid. Los Blancos paid Stade Rennais FC £34.4 million including add-ons to prize the then 18-year-old away. Camavinga has now become the mainstay player and has a base rating of 82 in the EA FC 24 game. His potential is 89.

9. Gabri Veiga - 89

After the Spaniard was making waves with Celta de Vigo in just his first season as a first-team player, everyone expected Gabri Veiga to move to a European giant. But now we see Veiga in the Saudi Pro League after Al Ahli activated his €40 million release clause in the summer window. Still, the midfielder has 89 as his potential.

8. Rasmus Højlund - 89

The summer also saw Manchester United finally landing a proper number 9 in the name of Rasmus Højlund. The 20-year-old Denmark forward will cost the Red Devils £72 million including add-ons. He has a base overall set at 76 in FC 24. But the prodigy can grow that to 89 overall in the career mode.

7. Alejandro Balde - 89

Just a week ago LaLiga giants FC Barcelona made an official announcement regarding the contract extension of 19-year-old Alejandro Balde. Coach Xavi fields Balde regularly in the left-back spot and is pleased with his performances. The FC 24 game sees Balde score an 81 rating already with 91 pace and 78 dribbling. The base rating can reach a high of 89 in the game.

6. Bukayo Saka - 90

Premier League club Arsenal under Mikel Arteta are making minds swerve with their entertaining football led by an exceptional young team. They even finished second in the 2022-23 PL season. Bukayo Saka is an extremely important piece of this Arsenal team puzzle and their ongoing amazing run. The winger already has an 86 base rating that can go up to 90.

5. Gavi - 90

Gavi has the potential to reach 90 in the EA FC 24 game. And that is not a surprise. The Spaniard alongside Pedri are two of the brightest midfielder talent of the Barca team and in Europe. Gavi dons the number 6 jersey previously seen on the current manager Xavi himself. The 19-year-old starts with an 83 rating.

4. Florian Wirtz - 91

Coach Xabi Alonso has truly transformed the Bayer 04 Leverkusen team since his appointment. After matchday 6 they are the current Bundesliga leaders. Florian Wirtz has also been a key performer within the BayArena camp. The 20-year-old German attacking midfielder has been handed 85 overall in EA FC 24 and can reach 91 in career mode.

3. Jude Bellingham - 91

Jude Bellingham's rise has been spectacular. From an early debut in Birmingham City's first team and a year later wearing the colours of Borussia Dortmund. The player now calls the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium his home and wears the iconic crest of Real Madrid on his kit. With a potential of 91, Bellingham is rated at 86 to begin with.

2. Pedri - 92

Last season began with Barcelona announcing the new heir to the number 8 jersey. Pedri swapped the number 16 for 8 which his hero Andrés Iniesta also used to wear in his days with the Blaugrana. The 20-year-old Spanish midfielder kicks off the FC 24 game at 86 rating which can substantially peak till 92 overall in career mode.

1. Jamal Musiala - 93

The German wonderkid Jamal Musiala is the brightest prospect in this year's EA FC 24 game. Musiala plays for the German giants Bayern Munich and gets an 86 base rating. The centre-attacking midfielder can astoundingly grow up to become a 93-rated player. To give you a better understanding, in comparison, the best player in the EA FC 24 game is Kylian Mbappe who has a 91 overall base.
