The Best Young Left Backs for a Lower-League Team in EA FC 26 Career Mode
Manchester United have a lot of problems at the moment, but finding their future left back isn't one of them. Diego Leon and Harry Amass are two of the most promising prospects in world football and would make for fantastic first signings for any lower league club. Players may also want to take a look at Lucas Jetten, with the Ajax man able to reach an 82 rating if properly nurtured.
The Best Young Left Backs for a Mid-Table Team in EA FC 26 Career Mode
Jorrel Hato and Myles Lewis-Skelly would slot right into most mid-table teams, although not every mid-table team could afford them. Patrick Dorgu and Nico O'Reilly provide much more cost-effective alternatives, although neither really stacks up to Hato or Lewis-Skelly when it comes to their overall potential of the two London-based players.
The Best Young Left Backs for a Top-of-the-Table Team in EA FC 26 Career Mode
There are plenty of familiar names when comparing last year's list of Career Mode left backs to this year's, but Jorrel Hato isn't one of them. Chelsea's new signing has the potential to become the joint best left back in FC 26, making him an excellent signing for any team, regardless of their current position or aspirations. Alvaro Carreras is also worth a look, as too is PSG's Nuno Mendes.
