Sports Interactive does not publish FM27 ratings; once the game is out (10 November 2026) FM27 in-game data replaces this list on the same pages. How it works.

Questions people ask
What is a wonderkid in FM27?
In Football Manager a wonderkid is a young player (usually 21 or under) with very high potential ability. Potential is a hidden in-game number set by Sports Interactive's researchers, so it can only be seen in the game itself or with scouting.
How do I find wonderkids in FM27?
In the game, use Player Search with an age filter, scout youth tournaments and check your scouts' reports. Before release you can shortlist the real young players here, then check their ratings on day one.
Who are the best cheap wonderkids?
Set League level to 'Outside the big 5 (usually cheaper)' and sort by Prospect Signal: players at smaller clubs usually cost less in Football Manager. Prices are not shown because SI sets them in the game.
Who are the best young strikers, centre-backs and goalkeepers?
See the position pages: goalkeepers, centre-backs, strikers.
Is this the official FM27 wonderkid list, and when was it updated?
No, it is our real-world list, built from Wikidata and Wikipedia on 14 October 2026. Sports Interactive does not publish FM27 ratings; the game comes out on 10 November 2026 and the list switches to FM27 in-game data after that.
