The Top 20 Young American Players In FIFA 19

If you’re like me, your FIFA Career Mode has played out in a similar vein for the last decade: (1) Select your favorite Premier League club. (2) Sign one or two big names for the starting XI (get in here, Daniele De Rossi, son of Rome). (3) Load the bench with Americans and create compelling backstories in your own head about how Jordan Morris is ready to take his chance against Macclesfield Town in the Carabao Cup second round.

It’s a lot of fun, but it can also be a difficult task scouring the transfer market for the right boyos. But with U.S. Soccer RISING from the ashes, there’s a plethora of young American talent that you can nurture at your club. These are the best young American players FIFA 19, including their baseline ratings and their potential growth.
