In EA FC 25 Career Mode, managers often look to sign skillful young wingers in the transfer window. Here, we have picked out the best young wingers across multiple positions, including the best young RWs, RMs, LWs, and LMs.
Our shortlist includes the best young players for all budgets, whether you’re looking to develop a wonderkid or buy the finished article.
FC IQ changes the way Career Mode fans scout and develop talent. If a player is constantly growing their key Attributes, then a Role Rating level up will be triggered to increase the potential of such Attributes and unlock a new stage of growth.
With that in mind, here are the wingers with the most potential.
Best RW players with high potential
Our shortlist below has been assembled using the EA SPORTS FC database, which includes each player’s age, OVR rating, potential, contract length, and value. We used the age range of 15-25, as players typically don’t grow much after that.

At just 16 years old, Lamine Yamal played 37 matches for Barcelona last season. Then, at the Euros, the superstar winger had a breakout tournament, and that form has carried over into this campaign. In six matches, Yamal registered three goals and five assists.
