Gomolemo Kekana
South Africa is a pretty solid source of bargain wonderkids with Gomolemo Kekana being a decent option to pick up from Sundowns. He won’t be an elite player but his development will make him a strong player for any team in the upper echelones of football.
Lazola Maku
Staying with South African talent, Lazola Maku is a central midfielder with a similar potential to that of Kekana but a much smaller price tag. His finishing is actually pretty solid so he’s one you could convert into more of a box crashing number ten as opposed to a standard central midfielder but his passing is good enough that he could play in most roles in the middle of the park.
Jona Preus
Bayern Munich were a factory for cheap young talent in the original database and they’ve continued to hold that standard a bit in update 26.2. Jona Preus is 17-year-old in their youth system who has a pretty low starting ability but a solid enough ceiling. He likely won’t win a UCL but he could be a top midfielder for a team in the second division of the big five or as a key player around Europe.
Neo Rapoo
A left-back/Left wing-back option from South Adrica, Neo Rapoo is a 20-year-old prospect with a decent price tag. He may not be a world class full back but he’s got all the usual makings of a servicable player who can fit and contribute on and off the ball, he could be a smart signing for a manager hoping to make a cheap buy to round out their eleven.
Fares Labidi
Another option who may never be world class but for his status and price can be a useful pickup. Fares Labidi is a left-sided attacker for Beja with solid dribbling ability. He could be used as a rotational left-wing option or as the main dribbler in your attack while the other players focus on putting the ball into the net.
