The youth system in EA FC 25 is similar to the older system used in previous games. However, this year, the process of growing youngsters up to fulfill their potential has been done differently.

- Open Youth Development in Manager Career.
- Go to Youth Development Plan.
- From here, you can assign specialist roles to every youth candidate.
- In my experience, Balanced is the worst role to assign. It has longer development times and hardly encourages the creation of roles.
- Naturally, a specialized role is better. Yes, you do lock a candidate into developing for a specific role, and they won’t be able to develop their secondary stats that much. However, the gains from this method are simply more.
Once you’ve set a specialized development plan for your youth candidates, their level-ups will be much more effective in EA FC 25. Additionally, playing the youth tournaments manually can be extremely fruitful as well. It takes place via the Rush mode, and you can test out what your candidates will feel like once they reach their maximum potential.
