Eduardo Camavinga (OVR 80 - POT 89)

Age: 19

Position: CDM CM LB

Team: Real Madrid

Easily the biggest star on this list, Camavinga is already a regular starter for both club and country.

Currently playing for Real Madrid, Camavinga is developing into a true French superstar with his range of passing and general athletic ability unrivalled by his peers.

In FIFA 23, Camavinga reflect his real life class, with an initial £45 Million valuation set to increase ten fold.

With 84 Short Passing, 85 Ball Control and 81 Stamina, there's no doubt that Camavinga is one of the best central midfield wonderkids in this year's game.

Age: 18

Position: CAM LW RW

Team: Lyon

A man that has been a wonderkid for some time, Rayan Cherki of Lyon is finally starting to showcase his talents in real life for Lyon.

The tricky winger is a must-have in FIFA 23, with the 18-year-old talent showcasing an array of stats that would make any manager turn their head.

Available for less than £10 Million at the start of the game, Cherki can climb all the way to the 88 overall mark and become a club legend.

His sprint speed may not be perfect, but his mix of dribbling, balance and agility make him a truly dangerous prospect.

Castello Lukeba (OVR 76 - POT 86)

Age: 19

Position: CB

Team: Lyon

France are known for their talented defenders and Castello Lukeba looks to be the next name on that list.

Also at Lyon, this talented young defender can quickly climb the overall ranks in FIFA 23, with his 86 potential very much attainable.

With a great mix of physical and mental stats to boot, Lukeba is truly a star in the making.

Mohamed-Ali Cho (OVR 72 - POT 85)

Age: 18

Position: ST

Team: Real Sociedad

Speaking of areas in which the French have always delivered, there may be no strong option than forwards.

The likes of Henry and Mbappe are yet to be matched by the next generation but Mohamed-Ali Cho could certainly be one to watch.

Currently at Real Sociedad, Cho is a talented forward with the world at his feet, with plenty of goals to his name already.

With 81 Dribbling and 83 Acceleration, it's no surprise many see him as the perfect alternative to Mbappe.

Malo Gusto (OVR 75 - POT 85)

Age: 19

Position: RB

Team: Lyon (on loan from Chelsea)

Returning to Lyon for the remainder of the campaign, Gusto will arrive at Stamford Bridge in the summer, before inevitably being loaned out again, or being asked to get changed outside of the dressing room due to lack of space.

Either way, Gusto is a talent who is shining in FIFA 23 and easily one of the best wonderkid full-back options in the game.

With 85 Acceleration and 88 Sprint Speed, this pace merchant is exactly what you need in your team.

Age: 17

Position: CAM
