The best wonderkids are given a minus value for Potential Ability (PA), which gives them a potential ability range that can change depending on their development.

A value of -10 means that the youngster could reach a Current Ability between 170/200 and 200/200, a value of -95 means that the youngster could reach a Current Ability between 160/200 and 190/200 and a value of -9 means that the youngster could reach a Current Ability between 150/200 and 180/200 etc.
