FIFA 21: 10 Best Young Wonderkids You Need To Sign

4. Jarrad Branthwaite (CB)

EA Sports

Club: Everton

Overall Rating: 59

Potential Rating: 82

Growth: +23

Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite can become as good as Villarreal's Raúl Albiol, Bayern's Jérôme Boateng and even Man Utd's Harry Maguire if given some TLC. That's something to think about, especially if you pick a Championship club with aspirations of progressing quickly to Premier League level.

The 18 year old should be well on his way to that 82 overall after 46 tough games in the second tier.

He'll make mistakes (what young defender doesn't?), but he's a shrewd investment. Better yet, you can bag two great young CBs for your money by plundering Everton's Premier League rivals Spurs for another defender...
