There are some of the best wonderkids (players with a high potential ability attribute) in Football Manager 2024/25 who also have a high injury proneness attribute. This means they are very likely to be injured and miss alot of games in your FM 24/25 Update career. They may be good young players, but seriously, avoid signing these injury prone wonderkids in Football Manager 2024/25.

You can pick up all of these players as free transfers in Football Manager 2024/25, but be warned, they each have a high injury proneness rating in Football Manager 2024/25 which makes them likely to be injured alot. There's a reason they've been left as free agents in real life, because they're always injured. You might think you've picked up a bargain free transfer in FM24/25 Update but is it worth the risk? At the very least we recommend not giving these players any longer than a 1 or 2 year contract. They may be free transfer bargains but you don't want to be stuck with these injury prone players.
