Young Goalkeepers Worth Buying in EA Sports FC 26 Career Mode Completing and Solving

Select Language:

Most of the top-rated goalkeepers in EA Sports FC 26 are in their late 20s or early 30s because goalkeepers typically mature later. However, during career mode, not every club can afford a superstar goalkeeper, as they tend to be expensive.

It can be smart to choose a young goalkeeper with the potential to become world-class someday. Many goalies in the game are 21 or younger and fit that idea. Still, finding them through the game’s scouting system can be difficult. To help, here are some of the best young goalkeepers to consider in career mode.

Dennis Seimen
Starting Rating: 66

You won’t be able to buy Dennis in the first transfer window since he’s loaned to SC Paderborn from VfB Stuttgart. But he’s worth keeping an eye on for future transfers because he could grow to a rating of 80 to 86, making him one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

At the start, he’s only rated 66, so he probably won’t fit into top clubs immediately, but he has potential to develop into a star.

Jonas Urbig
Starting Rating: 74

Jonas is just under 22, so he still qualifies as young. He plays for Bayern Munich, but with Manuel Neuer as the starter, chances are he won’t get much first-team play initially. Still, he’s a good investment, costing around $12-15 million, and starting at a 74 rating. He’s capable of helping many teams right away and has the potential to become a top-level goalkeeper.

Guillaume Restes
Starting Rating: 78

Guillaume comes from Toulouse and costs approximately $45 million. He’s quite expensive but worth considering if your budget allows. His potential is remarkable—up to 88 ratings. He already has decent skills and features the Footwork style, making him very good at stopping low and long shots.

Ewen Jaouen
Starting Rating: 68

Ewen begins career mode rated at 68. However, he has huge potential, with a ceiling up to 86. Toulouse asks around $4 million for him, which makes him a very cheap gamble. If he reaches his potential, he will be a top keeper, so investing now is smart.

He plays for a second-division French team, indicating he may not be ready for the highest level immediately. Still, buying him while he’s affordable and developing him as a backup or loaning him out could pay off.

Mike Penders
Starting Rating: 73

Mike is on loan from Chelsea at Strasbourg, making him temporarily unavailable for purchase in the first transfer window. He’s a solid keeper at the start, standing 6’7”. His upside is high, and he could develop into an elite goalkeeper.

Because he’s a loan, it’s uncertain how much Chelsea would want for him after his loan ends. Still, he’s worth watching, especially if your team needs a strong young keeper.

Robin Risser
Starting Rating: 72

Robin plays for RC Lens and is their top goalkeeper. You can acquire him for under $8 million. At his current rating and with high potential, he could become one of the best keepers in the game. He’s already a very capable shot-stopper and has room to grow.

Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro
Starting Rating: 71

Rome-Jayden is just about to turn 22, but he still counts as young. He’s been at AZ Alkmaar, and his potential can reach 87, similar to top goalkeepers like David Raya or Yann Sommer. He’s affordable, costing less than $7 million, and already has strong attributes. His playstyle abilities, Cross Claimer and Far Reach, make him effective at handling balls into the box and making long saves.

Matthieu Epolo
Starting Rating: 73

Matthieu starts with a 73 rating but has a potential to reach 89. He’s playing for Standard Liege at the moment and costs around $10.5 million. He already possesses the Far Reach and Footwork playstyles, making him good at saving long and low shots.

While he may not start for top clubs immediately, he’s capable of playing in top divisions and improving significantly.
