What GK Awareness means in eFootball

Indicates a keeper's reaction speed and affects positioning and recovery speed.

That is the description shown in the game. It is a goalkeeper stat, so only keepers carry a meaningful value. Like every stat it moves with training and with the card’s booster, so a Lv1 comparison mostly shows which cards start high rather than which end up best. The ranking below is measured at max level.

Across all 4,635 goalkeeper cards, 43 reach 95 GK Awareness or above, and the highest is 99.

Best GK Awareness ranking — top 30

Every goalkeeper card ranked by GK Awareness at max level, with the card’s own booster applied. 4,635 cards were compared. Cards are ranked individually, so a player with several strong cards can appear more than once.
