Seven Google Pixel Frauen-Bundesliga Wonderkids in FM26

Alara Şehitler

National team: Germany

Age: 18

Position: Midfielder

Club: FC Bayern Munchen

Alara Şehitler is one of the standout names in Germany’s next generation, having already caught attention with both Bayern Munich and German national side. Despite being just 18, she has shown maturity and personality in every stage of her career so far. Her composure under pressure and ability to step up on bigger stages make her a player with the mentality required to succeed at the highest level.

Naturally an attacking midfielder but comfortable deeper or wider, Şehitler combines technical quality with intelligence between the lines. Her vision, movement and ability to receive between the lines and progress attacks quickly.

Her end product still has room to grow, but the foundations are already there for a top-level midfielder. With Bayern’s elite environment accelerating her development, she feels like a player capable of becoming a key figure for club and country over the next few years.

Cora Zicai

National team: Germany

Age: 20

Position: Winger

Club: VfL Wolfsburg

After progressing through SC Freiburg’s academy, Cora Zicai made her debut at 16 in the 2022-2023 season, and steadily grew into an important attacking player for her team, finishing the 2024–25 campaign as the Wolfsburg’s leader in goal contributions. A summer move to Wolfsburg reflects just how highly she is rated.

Comfortable across the front line, she can stretch play from wide areas or attack central spaces with sharp runs off the ball. The next stage of her development will be about consistency and decision-making in bigger matches, but the athleticism and attacking instincts are already Frauen-Bundesliga level.

Momoko Tanikawa

National team: Japan

Age: 20

Position: Attacking Midfielder

Club: FC Bayern Munchen

Few young attacking midfielders are as comfortable receiving in tight spaces as Momoko Tanikawa. After emerging as one of Japan’s most exciting young prospects, she joined Bayern Munich in the 2024/2025 season, playing just 237 minutes. This season, she has already doubled that and has started to leave her mark with 2 goals in her first 6 league appearances.

Tanikawa’s profile reflects her blend of finesse and vision. With strong first touch, technique, and dribbling, she thrives in tight spaces, often operating between the lines as the link between midfield and attack. Her passing and flair attributes make her ideal for a possession-based system, while her off-the-ball movement and composure ensure she stays calm under pressure.

Naomi Luyet

National team: Switzerland

Age: 19

Position: Winger

Club: TSG Hoffenheim

A product of Swiss football now developing at Hoffenheim, Naomi Luyet arrives in Germany with a proven record in front of goal. Over her last two seasons in Switzerland she scored eight goals in each campaign, an impressive return for a wide player still in her teens. She’s yet to make her Bundesliga debut, having been sidelined by a long-term injury, but is one of Hoffenheim’s most promising young prospects.

Luyet is a direct and technically sharp winger who combines acceleration with composure in the final third. She’s comfortable driving inside to shoot, but also has the vision and crossing ability to create for others. Her balance, stamina and agility suggest she has the physical profile to adapt well to senior football once fully fit.

Delice Boboy

• National team: Germany

• Age: 18

• Position: Striker

• Club: RB Leipzig

Last season, Delice Boboy made her breakthrough in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen, featuring in 17 matches (mainly off the bench) and contributing 4 goals and 2 assists. Alongside her club performances, she also gained valuable international experience with Germany’s youth setup, with twenty appearances for the Germany U19s national team. Having shown her potential both domestically and internationally, she has now joined RB Leipzig, a club ready to offer her regular playing time.

Blessed with explosive speed, Boboy thrives in transition, stretching defences with her pace, acceleration, off-the-ball movement, and dribbling. A scorer rather than a passer, she shows a natural instinct for goal, capable of finding space in dangerous areas and finishing with decent composure.

Lotta Wrede

National team: Germany

Age: 17

Position: Winger

Club: Hamburger SV

Still only 17, Lotta Wrede has already made her senior breakthrough at Hamburger, scoring once in her first 6 league appearances this season. Deployed mainly as a left winger, she brings directness and energy every time she steps on the pitch, thriving in one-on-one situations and constantly looking to drive at defenders.

Wrede’s profile highlights her explosive acceleration and speed, the base of her game as an attacking wide player. Her dribbling and finishing attributes make her a threat cutting inside from the flank, while her developing off-the-ball movement and technique show why she’s already featuring in senior football consistently. Physically, she’s still maturing, her strength and stamina are not yet standout qualities, but her confidence and flair, make her one of the most exciting German teenagers. Regular senior minutes should accelerate her development quickly.

Kassandra Potsi

National team: Germany

Age: 17

Position: Winger / Attacking midfielder

Club: SGS Essen

At just 17, Kassandra Potsi is already in her third Bundesliga season, a rare level of experience for a player her age. Last year she made 17 appearances and has continued to pick up minutes this campaign within a young SGS Essen side.

Potsi is a versatile attacking midfielder with the mobility and discipline to adapt wide or centrally. Her first touch, acceleration and passing make her a natural link player between midfield and attack, comfortable receiving in tight pockets or driving into space. She’s composed receiving under pressure, links play effectively between midfield and attack, and contributes defensively in a way many young attacking players do not.
