FIFA 16 Career Mode: Get ‘Em Young!

As I did last year, I thought it’d be beneficial to you guys if I was to populate a list of the 10 players on FIFA 16 with the most potential in career mode.

I’m one of those guys that takes over at my team (Sheffield Wednesday) as soon as the new FIFA comes out, and basically plays it until the next FIFA.

Often I get to a stage where there are no real players left, and I’m winning trophies with a Wednesday side full of fake footballers.

However, before you get to the year 2040, there are some really good young players on FIFA 16 that, after a few years on the came, can turn into world-class footballers.

So, using the brilliant FUTHead website, I’ve created a few lists for you people. Firstly, one for the best U20 players, secondly, the top free agent signings, and finally, the best South Africans available.
