Managers can track a player's expected trajectory by visiting the in the training section. This chart displays a predicted curve based on the player's age and current training regime. It is important to note that this curve is not fixed; a player who performs exceptionally well can exceed their predicted maximum overall rating, while a benchwarmer may fall short.
: Players who may have mediocre stats in their youth but experience significant "explosive" growth in their late 20s, often maintaining their peak performance well into their 30s. Factors Influencing Growth pes 2013 growth type
