Best cheap goalkeepers in EA FC 24 Career Mode

It's Moneyball time.

In EA FC 24’s career mode, picking the right goalkeeper is crucial. While age, experience, and value are key factors, it’s not always about getting the top names.

Sure, famous goalkeepers like Thibaut Courtois, Alisson, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Jan Oblak, and Ederson are great, but they can be super expensive in EA FC 24 Career Mode. On the other hand, young talents like Ersin Destanoglu and Agirrezabala are promising, but they’re not cheap and might need more training.

You’re likely here seeking budget-friendly goalkeepers for quick improvements. Some options are experienced players with top ratings, while others are promising young talents. Regardless, they all fall within a price of under a million to five million.

Best cheap goalkeepers in EA FC 24 Career Mode

Teams in EA FC 24 without a strong goalkeeper must make decisive transfers in the first window after starting career mode in EA FC 24.

I prefer investing in young players under 22 with an Overall above 70. Buying young goalkeepers allows you to give them more game time to grow over the seasons. Alternatively, you can get aged veteran goalkeepers for a bargain during the transfer market.

Age under 22

Manuel Neuer tops the list of affordable goalkeepers with an impressive 87 rating, despite being 37. He’s a steal at $2.7 million. Close behind is Keylor Navas, 36 years old, with a price tag of just $1.5 million.

For those eyeing younger talent, consider Dogan Alemdar and James Trafford. Both are 20, boast a 72 rating, and are priced at $3.2 million. With the right guidance, they have the potential to rise as top players, offering excellent value for your investments.
