by Fernando Diaz / Articles, EA Sports FC 24 / 23 Aug 2023

Hey EA FC Fans! So, you’re vibing with EA Sports FC 24 and want to find out which players are gonna be your next big superstars in career mode? Well, you’re in the right place. I’m gonna spill the beans on how you can spot the hidden gems with mad potential.

Player Status

First things first, player potential ain’t just some random number. It’s that magical figure that’ll tell you just how beast a player can become in the game. Think of it as the ceiling they can hit, performance-wise.

“At the club since…”: This typically means a player’s potential is under 80.

“Showing great potential”: This one’s solid, with potential in the 80-85 range.

“Exciting prospect”: Now you’re cooking! Potential is between 85-90.

“Has potential to be special”: You’ve found a gem! This is a whopping 91 and above potential.

Note: “Has that special something” is more about flair than potential, so don’t get tripped up by that one…

Dynamic Potential is No Joke!

Players can be like stocks; their potential can rise or fall. If a player’s value is surging but their rating isn’t, their potential’s on the upswing. But if a player gets transferred or loaned out, their potential might take a hit. So, stay woke!

Sometimes the game won’t show you the potential directly. If you come across a player with a vague status like “Has that special something”, jump over to sofifa.com. Punch in the player’s name and boom, you got their potential right there!!

Transfer Magic

When players get transferred or loaned, their potential can tweak – either go up or drop. You can play this system a bit. Loan out young talents and bring them back. Rinse and repeat. You could boost their potential by a bunch in a single window.

Youth Academy – The Goldmine

The Youth Academy’s where it’s at! You can find kids with crazy potentials here. But remember, high potential ain’t enough. Groom them right and make sure they get the right experience.

Pro Tips to Boost Potential:

Play your promising young guns against weaker teams for a better match rating.

Keep your squad fresh. Rest your key players from time to time and avoid burning them out.

Avoid late-game subs. They won’t get enough time to shine.

Don’t sleep on players from lower leagues. If they’re pulling high ratings there, their potential can still skyrocket…

Remember, players get more experience starting a match than being subbed in.

Don’t just focus on those flashy forwards. Defensive players need love too!! While it’s true that attackers can boost their potential faster with goals & assists; make sure your defenders are getting clean sheets to keep their ratings in the green…

Always keep an eye on your player’s happiness. If they’re feeling good, their potential will soar.
