New 16 year old Wonderkid’s set to appear in FM25

Football Manager has an age cut off of 16. That means every year some of the worlds best 15 year olds just miss the cut and miss the opportunity to make a name for themselves in your FM Save. But it also means they’ll be their next year as each year hundreds of new 16 year olds prepare to excite our scouts and light up in our virtual pitches for the first time.

Like any true FM fan we’ve already started preparing our shortlist of potential signings for FM25 and that includes casting an eye over the young kids that will be appearing for the first time. Check out the list below and let us know who you think will be the top rated one in the comments.

If you’re still the sort of manager that uses pen and paper then you can download a printable copy of this list as well to scribble any notes on. Just use the download link on the right.

When FM25 is released we'll also put together a downloadable/importable shortlist of these same players so you can check them out in game. Use the three dots in the top right to subscribe to this post so you're reminded when that happens.
