Equip Your Team
Gianluigi Donnarumma, of AC Milan and Italy, is the best young goalkeeper in the game reflecting his huge prominence in the game over the last few years. He is the only young goalkeeper with a rating of over 90 and his price in FIFA 19 scares off most potential suitors.
There are a lot of talented goalkeepers at the start of the game with a rating under 70, making it hard for the two to join your team straight away. But as the trend of the modern game insists keepers are as good with their feet as they are with their hands, you may want to examine their full list of attributes.
