FIFA 15 Career Mode: 25 Wonderkids Worth Signing

24. Maximilian Meyer

Position: CAM Club: Schalke 04 FIFA 14 Potential: 86 Since swapping MSV Duisburg for Schalke in his youth, Meyer has gone on to cement himself a role operating in a three-pronged attacking midfield behind striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar in Jens Keller€™s starting XI, and his breakthrough season saw him impressively chalk up six goals and three assists in 30 appearances. He subsequently played his first match on the senior international stage against Poland on 13 May 2014, and was also named in Joachim Löw€™s 30-man provisional squad for the 2014 World Cup. Meyer€™s pint-sized figure and creative style have drawn comparisons to Lionel Messi and Mario Götze, and with outstanding agility, balance and ball control to boot, it€™s no challenge to see why. The 18-year-old is also capable of playing on the left side of midfield where he can cut in to open up the play and utilise his superb vision. Brimming with maturity well beyond his years, Meyer is certainly in with a shout of breaking into Die Mannschaft during 2015. Estimated FIFA 15 Potential: 87
