FM24 Wonderkids: Promising Young Talents to Sign (September 2023)

One of the best things about a new Football Manager release is discovering new talents. With each edition, we eagerly await the youngsters expected to shake the world and take great pride in guiding them to their potential, at least in the virtual world. As always, Football Manager 2024 (FM24) will be full of new talents, full of improved talents and full of those whose potential has dropped because of real-world performances.

Who Is on FM 24's List of Promising Young Talents?

James Trafford (Burnley, Goalkeeper)

James Trafford, the former Man City goalkeeper who is Burnley's first choice this season, should expect a fairly solid increase in his potential for FM24. After spending last season on loan, Trafford made a permanent move from the Etihad this summer and will hope Vincent Kompany's leadership is good for his development. Starting FM23 on loan at Bolton, Trafford had suitable potential for a young goalkeeper, great aerial ability and very good mental attributes, but with Premier League football we can expect him to be one of the higher-rated goalkeepers in FM24.

Maurits Kjaergaard (RB Salzburg, Midfielder)

Kjaergaard, who is 20 years old, is already RB Salzburg's first choice, and big things are expected from the Danish midfielder. Resourceful and intelligent, with great physical abilities, he has already scored a goal in the Champions League. You can be ahead by using this talented playmaker's abilities before he moves to one of Europe's bigger leagues in the near future.

Jobe Bellingham (Sunderland, Midfielder)

There is something in the Bellingham family. We all know what Jude Bellingham can do in real life and in FM, but with his move to Real Madrid, it is time to look elsewhere for your midfield's future. Enter Jobe. Because of his age, he is a bit rawer than his brother Jude, but whatever his FM23 attributes were, we can expect big things from FM24. His mental attributes were very impressive, and his ability to read the game was great despite his age. With his real-life goalscoring return at Sunderland, we can expect him to be an effective attacking midfielder in FM24.

Valentin Barco (Boca Juniors, Left-Back)

Barco, a talented left-back already well known to FM23 players, is wanted by many Premier League clubs in the real world and will probably see a jump in his potential for FM24. His creativity, physical and defensive attributes are outstanding and will only get better as he matures. A big move to Europe and his international debut seem only a matter of time, and FM players who can catch him early will be rewarded with one of the world's best left-backs for years to come.

FM 24's List of Promising Young Talents Continues

Bilal El Khannouss (KRC Genk, Midfielder)

El Khannouss was something of a surprise player for FM23. Underrated by Sports Interactive at launch, his real potential was updated for the winter update, and we can expect that to continue for FM24. His passing and game-reading abilities make an impressive playmaker, and his price should be reasonable. It should not be too hard to pull him away from KRC Genk, and you will be rewarded with one of the game's smartest youngsters. Play him as an AMC behind a striker who moves well and can finish, and you will have a deadly combination.

Efrain Alvarez (LA Galaxy, Striker)

We don't always think of MLS as a place where young talents are raised, but Efrain Alvarez will do his best to change that perception in FM24. Alvarez, who is 20 years old, is equally talented at playing as a second striker or in attack and has technical ability. Because of the growing interest in MLS due to the arrival of Lionel Messi, new respect can be expected for the talented youngsters trading in North America. Efrain Alvarez has the potential to be right at the forefront of this revolution.

Luka Vuskovic (Hajduk Split, Defender)

This summer's transfer headlines were full of a Croatian defender. But while Josko Gvardiol moved to Manchester, the next big thing was already drawing attention in Croatia. Even though he is only 16 years old, Vuskovic

Has started playing in the top division and became Hajduk Split's youngest goalscorer at 16 years and 5 days. With his height and strength, he could be a dominant aerial force in the coming years. He may be a player for the future because of his age, but comparisons with Gerard Pique are already being made, and he looks set to have a career at the highest level of European football.

END

This list of high-potential FM24 wonderkids is a great starting point as you plan your Football Manager 2024 journey.
