In short
The highest Prospect Signals belong to Lennart Karl (18, FC Bayern Munich), Mathis Albert (17, Borussia Dortmund) and Konstantinos Karetsas (18, Borussia Dortmund). Facts from Wikidata (snapshot 14 October 2026); the table below filters by nation, age and league level. FM27 ratings are not public before 10 November 2026, so this is a shortlist to check in-game, not SI data.
Real-world prospect list, not FM27 game data. Built from public Wikidata and Wikipedia facts (snapshot 14 October 2026) and our own Prospect Signal. 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.
