Midfielders are the heart and soul of a football team, and that's no different in EA FC 25 Career Mode. For you to find success in Career Mode, be it winning titles or achieving promotions, you need a great midfield.
Having a midfield with a mix of players that can control the tempo of the game, regain possession, and create plenty of goal-scoring chances is the base to success in Career Mode.
One of the best ways to build a midfield like that is to get young diamonds and polish them until they reach their full potential. These younger players are cheaper and can later be sold for huge sums of money, making it a smart sport and financial move.
Best Young Midfielders EA FC 25 Career Mode
To be considered a young midfielder, players must be 22 and under in FC 25's Career Mode.
As mentioned above, the objective is to scout promising young players, contract them for low fees, develop them into elite players, and ultimately sell them to bigger clubs.
You don't need to sell them if you think your team will benefit more from them staying. If you can create a team that will challenge for trophies and your club is financially stable, keeping your rising star can be the best option.
W. Zaïre-Emery - PSG
W. Zaïre-Emery is the best young midfielder you can sign in EA FC 25. The incredibly talented 18-year-old French central midfielder has an 80 OVR and an 88 OVR potential.
The PSG rising star has fantastic attributes, with 79 pace, 69 shooting, 78 passing, 79 dribbling, 75 defending, and 78 physical. These attributes can improve significantly and make W. Zaïre-Emery a world-class player.
The only negative thing we can point out is that W. Zaïre-Emery's price tag is quite high, as PSG will ask you for at least 40€ million to let their wonderkid leave.
