will need a quality goalkeeper behind them to hold on to victories for your side, so it is vital that Wonderkids
in FM 19 you sign well between the sticks. It is easy to be tempted into moving for the world’s
best goalkeepers, but it may be a wiser option to go for a wonderkid who can develop into a
superstar.

stoppers who are aged 21 and below and hold a Potential Ability (PA) rating of at least 140. A
player’s speci c PA cannot be found in-game, with the star ratings you see for CA (Current
Ability) and PA only a re ection of the quality of that player on your squad.

RealSport looks at goalkeepers who can blossom into the best on the planet on Football
Manager 2019.

Alex Meret (CA 135 – PA 169)

Age: 21

Club: Napoli

Country: Italy

Best stats: 17 re exes, 16 aerial reach, 16 handling

Value: £5.5 million

Wage: £32,000 a week

Two seasons on loan at SPAL have seen Alex Meret recalled to Napoli as he looks to ght for
minutes on the pitch. The 21-year-old won promotion to Serie A in his rst season at Ferrara-
based SPAL, and helped the club stay up by just three points last year. A fractured arm has seen
him miss the start of the campaign in Naples, but he will challenge for the number one spot
upon his return.

On FM 19, attributes of 17 re exes, 16 aerial reach and 16 handling take Meret to a 135 CA. The
21-year-old can improve to an impressive 169 potential, and with a value of £5.5 million and
£32,000 a week wage, he is a reasonable signing. 

Gianluigi Donnarumma (CA 150 – PA 160-190)

Age: 19

Club: AC Milan

Country: Italy

Best stats: 18 jumping reach, 17 re exes, 17 teamwork

Value: £19 million

Wage: £190,000 a week

Top of your shortlist is likely to be Gianluigi Donnarumma who is already verging on world class
status aged only 19. The ‘keeper made his debut for AC Milan aged just 16, and has continued
to perform, amassing over 130 appearances for the club. Since the retirement of namesake and
idol Gianluigi Bu on from international duty, Donnarumma has become the Italian number 1,
with nine caps for his country. 

An already impressive 150 CA for Donnarumma can grow to a potential between 160 and 190,
so his 18 jumping reach, 17 re ex and 17 teamwork stats will receive greater support. The
Italian has a value of £19 million with wages of £190,000 a week. 

Unai Simon (CA 139 – PA 157)

Age: 21

Club: Athletic Bilbao

Country: Spain

Best stats: 18 determination, 16 pace, 16 aerial reach

Value: £5.5 million

Wage: £21,000 a week

Unai Simon has been given his opportunity at Athletic Bilbao following the departure of Kepa
Arrizabalaga to Chelsea. All seven of the 21-year-old’s appearances have come this season, but
it looks to be a baptism of re for the Spanish U21 international with no clean sheets to his
name thus far. 

Simon has 18 determination, 16 pace and 16 aerial reach to his name on FM 19, which help him
to a 139 CA. This can improve to a potential of 157, meaning he’s valued at £5.5 million with
current wages of £21,000 a week. 

Dean Henderson (CA 126 – PA 155)

Age: 21

Club: She eld United (on loan from Manchester United)

Country: England

Best stats: 15 re exes, 15 determination, 15 natural tness

Value: £6.3 million

Wage: £10,000 a week

A Manchester United youth product, you wonder if Dean Henderson will ever come into the
fold at the Premier League giants, but he has been performing out on loan. Loan spells at
Grimsby Town, Shrewsbury and now She eld United have seen him progress from League Two
to Championship football, as well as pick up ve caps for England U21s. 

Henderson is valued at £6.3 million with wages of £10,000 a week on FM 19, due to his 126 CA
and 155 potential ability. Attributes of 15 re exes, 15 determination and 15 natural tness
make him a steady option in between the sticks already. 

Alexander Nubel (CA 124 – PA 154)

Age: 21

Club: Schalke

Country: Germany

Best stats: 17 rushing out, 17 composure, 16 teamwork

Value: £2.4 million

Wage: £4,000 a week

With six appearances to his name for Schalke this season, Alexander Nubel looks to be another
player on the cusp of a breakthrough. Aged 21 and being understudy to the solid Ralf
Fahrmann, Nubel will learn a lot, and with 11 caps for Germany U21 he looks to have been
marked as a bright talent. 

17 rushing out, 17 composure and 16 teamwork help take Nubel to a 124 CA rating, which can
rise to a 154 potential. A £2.4 million value and £4,000 a week wage make the youngster a great
option straight away. 

Emil Audero (CA 128 – PA 154)

Age: 21

Club: Sampdoria (on loan from Juventus)

Country: Italy

Best stats: 18 natural tness, 16 rushing out, 15 re exes

Value: £3.7 million

Wage: £4,000 a week

Yet another Italian, we could be looking at Juventus’s future number 1 in the form of Emil
Audero. The 21-year-old helped Venezia reach the Serie B play-o s last season and has now
been given his shot in the top- ight by Sampdoria. It’s been a strong star for the Italy U21
international, with six clean sheets in his rst 12 games for the club.

Audero has a 128 current ability rating on FM 19, which can rise to a 154 potential. His 18
natural tness, 16 rushing out and 15 re exes value him at £3.7 million and £4,000 a week
wages. 

Karlo Letica (CA 118 – PA 154)

Age: 21

Club: Club Brugge

Country: Croatia

Best stats: 19 jumping reach, 18 aerial reach, 14 handling

Value: £1.7 million

Wage: £9,000 a week

Karlo Letica left Croatia in search of Champions League football, something that has been
provided at Club Brugge in Belgium. The 21-year-old is still relatively inexperienced with only 58
senior appearances in his career, but he will be more greatly tested in Brugge. Since his move,
the goalkeeper has already been called up into the Croatian national team squad.

A 118 current ability score for Letica can improve to a reliable PA of 154, which sees him valued
at £1.7 million with wages of £9,000 a week. 19 jumping reach, 18 aerial reach and 14 handling
are superb stats for the 6’7” goalie.

Alban Lafont (CA 132 – PA 150-180)

Age: 19

Club: Fiorentina

Country: France

Best stats: 17 jumping reach, 16 re exes, 15 determination

Value: £5 million

Wage: £19,000 a week

A man with a bright future, Alban Lafont secured the rst big move of his career over the
summer, as the former Toulouse man joining Fiorentina. The French U20 international has
made nine appearances for the Viola so far this season, and with goalkeeping an art-form in
Italy, expect him to continue to impress. 

Lafont has stats of 17 jumping reach, 16 re exes and 15 determination on FM 19, aiding him to
a 132 CA rating. This can rise to a PA between 150 and 180, which values him at £5 million with
a wage of £19,000 a week. 

Florian Muller (CA 132 – PA 148)

Age: 20

Club: Mainz

Country: Germany

Best stats: 17 rushing out, 16 composure, 16 teamwork

Value: £3 million

Wage: £5,000 a week

Germany have produced some great goalkeepers of late, with Florian Muller looking to follow
the likes of Manuel Neuer and Marc-Andre ter Stegen. The Mainz man looks to have secured
the number 1 shirt this season, picking up nine appearances in all competitions. If he can build
on this start to the season, we could see another top-class German goalkeeper emerge.

The 20-year-old Muller is valued at £3 million with wages of £5,000 a week with the youngster
able to improve from a 132 CA to a potential of 148. His best attributes include 17 rushing out,
16 composure and 16 teamwork. 

Joel Pereira (CA 124 – PA 149)

Age: 21

Club: Vitoria (on loan from Manchester United)

Country: Portugal

Best stats: 15 aerial reach, 15 re exes, 15 jumping reach

Value: £5.8 million

Wage: £15,000 a week

A second goalkeeper on loan from Manchester United, but Joel Pereira’s time at the Old
Tra ord is already sti ing his career due to a lack of game time. The 21-year-old has made
three rst team appearances for the club, but his only other professional football has come on
loan at Rochdale (eight appearances) and Portuguese out t Belenenses (ten appearances). He
looks to better that at Vitoria with seven games so far, but 14 caps for Portugal U21s shows he
has some pedigree.

Pereira’s attributes of 15 aerial reach, 15 re exes and 15 jumping reach take him to a 124 CA on
Football Manager 2019. This can improve to a 149 potential, giving him a value of £5.8 million
with wages of £15,000 a week.
