Best young goalkeepers on FIFA 23

Of goalkeepers aged 20 and under on FIFA 23, Southampton shotstopper Gavin Bazunu is deemed to be the one with the best potential. The Republic of Ireland international, who notably denied Cristiano Ronaldo from the penalty spot in a World Cup qualifier, begins as a 70-rated GK, but can improve to become an 85-rated one.

Maarten Vandevoordt of Genk was previously the best young goalkeeper in FIFA, but the Belgian comes in a close second to Bazunu in FIFA 23. You'll find two decent young goalkeeper options in Ligue 1, with Toulouse's 17-year-old Guillaume Restes and Lille's Lucas Chevalier each boasting the potential of an 83 rating.

Luis Miguel Marquines has been touted as a possible future Colombia No. 1 and that's reflected in his potential rating, which stands at 82. Benfica netminder and accomplished Portugal youth international Samuel Soares also has an 82 potential rating.

Chelsea recruit Gabriel Slonina is one of the best young American goalkeepers and is plying his trade for Chicago Fire in FIFA 23, but could be a decent option in Career Mode. If you place your trust in Italian goalkeepers, then Juventus have a bright prospect in Giovanni Garofini, whose potential rating is 81.
