Career Mode Wonderkids
We don't see many large increases for overall or potential ratings, with the current crop of wonderkids putting in consistent performances as opposed to proper stand-out ones.

This has seen his rating increase this year from 78 OVR to 82 OVR.
If he keeps up these goal involvement levels then we expect to see him given another rating increase and also see his potential up there with the best of the wonderkids at 91 OVR.

Again, if he keeps up that form he could see an upgrade in overall and potential rating.
