Edwin Cerillo
FIFA 21 has Cerillo becoming one of the next best academy products from FC Dallas. The 20-year-old is rated at 64 overall with an overall potential of 81 overall. Much like the aforementioned Leyva, Cerillo is a player who may fly under the radar in FIFA 21 but is a great signing to make in a career mode.

Jesus Ferriera
Another one of Dallas’s bright young stars makes his way unto the list. Ferriera had a terrific 2019 season so it’s no surprise to see him as one of the players with the most potential. The 19-year-old is rated at 68 overall with the potential to reach 81 overall.
Cristian Casseres Jr.
The New York Red Bulls talented Venezuelan midfielder received a big potential rating. Casseres Jr starts off at 68 overall but has the potential to reach 83 overall. Of all the U-20 players in MLS, Casseres Jr receives one of the highest potentials of them all.
