The FM21 Winter Update has arrived.
But how has it affected the wonderkid goalkeepers within this year's title? Let's find out.
Wonderkid Goalkeepers
Usually, we work off the rule that wonderkids are still in their 'teenage years' but not with goalkeepers.
Seeing as the men between the sticks usually peak slightly later, we've upped the minimum age to 21, which spells good news for Gianluigi Donnarumma fans.
Gianluigi Donnarumma (CA 160 - PA 182)
Age: 21
Club: AC
Best Attributes: 17-19 jumping reach, 18 reflexes, 16 one on ones
Value: £28M
Wage: £195,000 per week
Was it ever really in doubt?
The best wonderkid goalkeeper on FM21 is none other than Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Despite establishing himself as one of Europe's best, the Italian is still only 21-years-old. His PA of 182 is by far and wide the best on the game, though he won't come cheap.
Maarten Vandevoordt (CA 108 - PA 150-180)
Age: 18
Club: KRC Genk
Best Attributes: 15-19 agility, 14-18 kicking, 13-18 jumping reach
Value: £3.3M
Wage: £4,100 per week
Closely following Donnarumma is Genk's 18-year-old stopper, Maarten Vandevoordt.
Despite making his UCL debut last season, the Belgian is still listed as a Future Prospect for the Pro League club.
Vandevoort has one of the best potentials of any wonderkid GK on FM21. He's worth picking up whilst you still can.
Illan Meslier (CA 138 - PA 158)
Age: 20
Club: Leeds United
Best Attributes: 17-20 jumping reach, 15-19 reflexes, 12-18 natural fitness
Value: £17.5m
Wage: £25,000 per week
Illan Meslier has been one of the top goalkeepers in the Premier League this season, and that form has been reflected in this year's FM.
The young French stopper has a potential ability of 158, which would take him in and around the best in the division.
Alban Lafont (CA 130 - PA 156)
Age: 21
Club: FC Nantes
Best Attributes: 15-18 natural fitness, 14-17 jumping reach, 14-17 reflexes
Value: £3.3M
Wage: 17,750 per week
If you're looking for a cheaper alternative to Meslier, then you may want to consider Alban Lafont.
The French keeper is currently plying his trade at FC Nantes and whilst he may not be as good as Meslier, there PA's are very similar.
Tim Ronning (CA 123 - PA 155)
Age: 21
Club: Elfborg
Best Attributes: 15-20 jumping reach, 15-19 aerial reach, 13-19 handling
Value: £775k
Wage: £1,600 per week
For those of you willing to take a hit on the CA's in order to save a bit of cash, Elfsborg stopper Tim Ronning may be the man for you.
The 21-year-old has a measly £1.5k p/w wage, which is great for those working at a lower league club with a tighter budget.
Matvey Safonov (CA 129 - PA 155)
Age: 21
Club: Krasnador
Best Attributes: 15-20 concentration, 14-19 reflexes, 13-18 one on ones
Value: £1.8M
Wage: £17,500 per week
The next young goalkeeper on this list is Russian stopper, Matvey Safonov.
The 21-year-old has decent potential, but his £17.5k p/w wages are a bit of a sticking point for us, we'd go Ronning over Safonov every day of the week.
Diogo Costa (CA 129 - PA 155)
Age: 20
Club: FCP
Best Attributes: 12-18 bravery, 13-17 kicking, 13-17 agility
Value: £2.2M
Wage: £3,400 per week
FCP's Portuguese keeper, Diogo Costa, is another with the potential to rise to a rating of 155.
In fact, the 20-year-old has identical stats to Sofonov, but with a much lower weekly wage. He's one worth considering if you're strapped for cash.
Andriy Lunin (CA 120 - PA 140-170)
Age: 21
Club: Real Madrid
Best Attributes: 15-18 determination, 13-17 one on ones, 13-16 agility
Value: £1.3M
Wage: £6,000 per week
Real Madrid's Andriy Lunin is the next name on the list of best wonderkid goalkeepers in FM21.
The Ukrainian is one that we'd avoid going after, in the most part due to the fact that Real will more than likely ask for an extortionate fee to prise their young prospect away from the Bernabeu.
Alex Padilla (CA 76 - PA 140-170)
Age: 16
Club: A. Bilbao U19s
Best Attributes: 12-18 reflexes, 12-18 bravery, 8-16 leadership
Value: £33.5k
Wage: £425 a week
If a high current ability isn't top of your list, then you should definitely consider Bilbao's young stopper, Alex Padilla.
The 16-year-old has already developed his reflexes and bravery and, with the right tutelage, he could become one of the games best.
Alejandro Iturbe (CA 70 - PA 140-170)
Age: 16
Club: Atletico Madrid U18's
Best Attributes: 10-16 rushing out tendency, 9-15 decision, 8-14 aerial reach
Value: £28k
Wage: £325 per week
Another player in a similar position to Padilla is Atletico Madrid's Alejandro Iturbe.
He may be one of the youngest on the list, but by no means is the Spaniard any less valuable.
Iturbe has all the potential to go to the very top and could definitely don the goalkeeper jersey for your reserve side to help his development.
