Top 5 Best Young Strikers in EA FC 25

One of the major keys to building a title-winning team in EA FC 25 career mode is to have a proficient striker. Even in the real world, all successful clubs and national teams have a goalscoring machine leading their attack line. Getting an ace striker on board in career mode is difficult, as one can easily cost nearly or over 100 million. The other best option is to buy a prodigal striker and nurture him into a goal-scoring machine through career-mode seasons. With that in mind, the following five are some of the finest young talents with the potential to future aces.

Player	Club	Rating	Potential
Vitor Roque	Real Betis	76	87
