FIFA 18 Career Mode: 20 Wonderkids You Need To Sign

2. Gianluigi Donnarumma (AC Milan)

We fully expect that AC Milan's Gianluigi Donnarumma will someday take the mantle of best goalkeeper in FIFA titles for years to come. In 18, the teenager (who is 18 himself) starts out with a rating of 82. Hold onto your hats, because that can grow by 12 points to become 94. Yes, ninety four.

You're not going to get Donnarumma for a few million like you could several years ago though, because Milan just signed their youngster to a long-term contract and all looks rosy between player and club again. He is an investment, and an expensive one, but Donnarumma would be a Career Mode masterstroke if you were able to pull it off.

Buy him and you won't need anything more than a decent backup keeper who doesn't mind playing second fiddle. Donnarumma is poised to replace Gianluigi Buffon as Italy's go-to goalie for the next 20+ years. Make him your team's permanent fixture between the posts.
