Borussia Dortmund’s Ousmane Dembele has one of the highest potential ratings in the game. Starting at a credible 77, and can grow all the way to 90. If you harness the 19-year-old’s talents the right way, he’ll become one of the best players in the world, but he’s a highly effective player from day one.

With 83 for acceleration and 85 sprint speed, Dembele starts fast, and ends up like Usain Bolt. Pair these stats with tremendous ball control (81), dribbling (85), and agility (81) and you have a truly lethal winger whose great finishing (77) makes him a dangerous option when cutting in from his preferred RM position.

Dembele does have some work to do in the distribution department, however. His crossing starts at just 67, which isn’t terrible, but is a little short of top level expectations. The right training program will see this number go through the roof, however, and his four star skill moves and five star left foot really help him stand out. Valued at £10.5m, Dembele isn’t particularly cheap to start, but you’re paying for one of the best players in FIFA 17.
