FIFA 23 wonderkids are the bedrock of Career Mode, as you look to build a title-winning side from youth stars who can develop into superstars.

We now know the full stats of every player on the game and here at FFT, we've tallied up the top 330 players in the game for you to get into your side – plus free signings and bargains – so you don't have to scout them. We've also got their height, preferred foot, weak foot, skill moves and more so that you know exactly what you're buying.

Wonderkids give you the opportunity to nurture talent, train and develop a sponge-like squad and produce the team of the future for pennies. So when you're starting a brand-new career and enjoying the new features, who's going to be on your wishlist this time around?

Goalkeepers

Gavin Bazunu of Southampton warms up during the pre-season friendly match between RB Leipzig and Southampton FC, at the Lavanttal-Arena, on July 16, 2022 in Wolfsberg, Austria.

A young goalkeeper in Career Mode can actually work out as a long-term investment, even though keepers reach their peak later in life. Get one of these lads and you can fix the position for the next decade – maybe longer.

Defenders

Young defenders need a lot of training to get up to an elite level – in real life and in FIFA. Most of the young defenders that you sign will be specialists in a specific position: work with them to improve and you could have a top-level baller in no time.

Midfielders

Some midfielders in FIFA are attack-minded, others more conservative. Complementing different styles off one another is key to your success and developing wonderkids who can improve together can be a recipe for a winning side.

Forwards

We're all a sucker for a pacy frontman with decent skills and finishing. Most of these players can be retrained into most positions, given you freedom, fluidity and ferocity in your Career Mode side up front.
