In this article, we have put together a list of the top-rated Goalkeeper wonderkids in Football Manager 2024. These are some of the best wonderkid Goakeepers in the game, providing you with a list of players who are ready to slot straight into your top-tier teams and others you can purchase to replace ageing goalkeepers.

This article is the first in a number of FM24 wonderkid guides, aiming to show you the best young players in FM24 as well as some cheap FM24 wonderkids that you can sign for teams of any level. 

But first, what is a wonderkid?

Wonderkids in Football Manager 2024

Wonderkids are best classified as rising stars in Football Manager 2024. They are potential talents in Football Manager 2024 who, while not guaranteed to become world-beaters, can become some of the best players in the game.

Although the existence of dynamic potential in Football Manager 2024 can be a limiting factor to the growth of these top youth talents in FM24, the right training and exposure to match experience can still make them very strong.

Understanding dynamic potential in Football Manager 2024

Dynamic potential in Football Manager 2024 is a mechanic integrated into the game in order to give a sense of randomness across multiple save files. 

In previous Football Manager games, the potential ability (PA) of the top-rated youth players in Football Manager was locked to a value between 0 and 200. With dynamic potential, the PA of these players can exist within ranges that are randomised upon the start of a game.

The ranges are as follows:

  • 10 (170-200)
  • 95 (160-190)
  • 9 (150-180)
  • 85 (140-170)
  • 8 (130-160)
  • 75 (120-150)
  • 7 (110-140)

This continues all the way down to -1 in the same fashion. Because of this dynamic potential, some of these young talents in Football Manager 2024 aren’t guaranteed to be elite in every save file, so make sure you scout players before buying and keep a tracker on wonderkids in your Football Manager 2024 game.

The best wonderkid Goalkeepers in Football Manager 2024

Bart Verbruggen

Kicking off our list of the best wonderkid Goalkeepers in Football Manager 2024 is Brighton’s Bart Verbruggen. 

Signed by the club from Anderlecht for £16.25m in the Summer window for the 23/24 season, this means that you won’t be able to sign him for your own team straight away. Even if you could, you may struggle to regardless thanks to his £38-£47m valuation.

Regardless of this, if you can sign Verbruggen he is instantly ready to go into your team thanks to 132 current ability (CA). You may also have luck signing him for cheaper in your second season thanks to the low level of playing time Verbruggen will get at Brighton thanks to Jason Steele.

Dennis Seimen

The second player on our list of top-rated Goalkeeper wonderkids in Football Manager 2024 is Sttugart’s Dennis Seimen. The first of two German Goalkeepers on this list, he is also a bargain FM24 wonderkid due to his valuation of £3.4-£5m. 

Unlike Verburggen, Seimen won’t instantly be ready to go into your starting eleven because of his 102 CA. Instead, if you sign Seimen early enough, look to loan him out to other clubs to develop.

If you’re looking to play with an aggressive Goalkeeper, Seimen is the perfect choice thanks to his 16 Rushing Out (Tendency) attribute.

Jonas Urbig

The second German in our FM24 Goalkeeper wonderkids guide is FC Koln’s 19-year-old Goalkeeper, Jonas Urbig.

Like Verbruggen, you won’t be able to sign Urbig in the first season as he is out on loan at Greuther Furth. 

With a PA ranging between 140-170, Urbig has the same PA range as Dennis Seimen, but he is a much better player at the start of your game thanks to his 118 CA. However, this is reflected in his value of £19-£29m.

Guillaume Restes

Let’s head over to France for the next player on our list of top-rated Goalkeeper youth talents in Football Manager 2024 and look at Toulouse’s Guillaume Restes.

Restes, who is already Toulouse starting Goalkeeper, isn’t quite the finished article thanks to his 121 CA, but the exposure to first-team football he will get will see that rating shoot up.

With a PA ranging between 150-180, Restes is one of the best wonderkid Goalkeepers in Football Manager 2024 and can also be considered one of the best FM24 wonderkid bargains thanks to his valuation of £10m.

Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro

Our next Football Manager 2024 wonderkid Goalkeeper to review is AZ Alkmaar’s Rome-Jayden Owusu Oduro.

A new wonderkid for Football Manager 2024, Owusu-Oduro has a CA of 118 and a PA ranging between 140-170. Interestingly, he also doesn’t have all of his attributes assigned before the game, meaning that the attributes you see below won’t look the same when you load your game.

Valued between £12.5-£19m at the start of your game, he isn’t cheap, but with a season or two out on loan, he could easily become your starting Goalkeeper.

Spike Brits

Closing out our list of the best wonderklid Goalkeepers in Football Manager 2024 is Manchester City’s 16-year-old English Goalkeeper, Spike Brits.

Spike Brits is one of the best teenage players in FM 2024, although he will only live up to that when he has been allowed time to reach his PA, which ranges between 130-160. 

For his CA, his valuation of £3.8-£5.8m is quite high, however, if you are an English club looking for a home-grown talent to develop, Spike Brits is your guy.
