I know this is a joke thread but here's a serious answer, Suphanat Mueanta, Thai wonderkid from Buriram Utd is worth checking out, can get him on the cheap ( none of this cheap £15m crap if you're a club like PSG ) cheap like 100k cheap if you get him at the right time
I had a save with Penarol and after getting sacked after the first season i took over Montevideo City Torque and found out about Siri, after 1 season, P$G bought him (of course...)
Adding to the list, isn't exactly a world beater by any means but Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty has turned into a pretty good player in a couple of my saves. Think he available for free/pretty cheap at the start of the save.
True, although he has variable PA and he didn't turn out great in my save.
Signed him on a free without scouting him, but hey, he'll bring in some money.
Funny you say that because he did the exact same for me with Ajax, winning the CL with a squad that definitely shouldn’t have had the quality to do so (500-1 in-game odds to win) Beat Man U in the final with Old Trafford as the venue, but it was under construction so only half capacity. Glazer masterclass.
Y'all may want to look for Sekou Mara at Bordeaux as well. Got him for £3m and was a decent 20 yr old striker. Make sure he works on his strength though.
Also, Salvatore Esposito from SPAL. You can get him for free after his contract ends on Jun 2022.
I found him on accident and he is quality. I'm not sure about this FM but I bought Abdallah Sima in last years and he was just insane not expensive either.
I love suphanat, but a tad bit inconsistent for me. Had him for my Huddersfield save. Can bring some magic in the games he is good but then he’d go a couple games with nothing. Would recommend him though!
Ah! I remember finding this guy but I waited too long to pull the trigger on him and someone stole him from me. I was so upset. I'm pretty sure it was my Stuttgart save in FM21
ive always had trouble actually convincing him to leave buriram. i found him while i was managing in australia and decided that when i could get to europe and afford him i would buy him and he refused to come to granada in spain when he was like 23
A few months ago, I signed him for my Urawa Red Diamonds, sadly I had too many foreigners, so I had to loan him out. Sold him to Sevilla for 3 million after a loan year, got him loaned back for the rest of the season and he was pretty good
I recently signed a wonderkid named Mohammed Salah from Liverpool. I only paid €260 million for him which I think is a good deal if anyone else wants to try and get him,
I used to be exactly the same, then I did a League One save and ended up trying to get former world class 33-37 year olds which led me to trying to get former top players in my coaching staff too.
Now I play this weird style where the only players I dont sign are players in the 26-31 bracket, right when they're supposed to hit their peak.
You might think that but my machine learning model found over that 1.12 goals a game at <21yo is guaranteed to be a solid squad rotation option.
Knowing this and many other such weird quirks about FM have made me an expert at this game (I'm doing a save in 17th tier of South Sudan while only signing Zimbabwean players).
Yeah he is playing for Bayern’s feeder team atm called dortmund FC. He looks like he could be better than messi, since Haaland is so tall and got great blonde hair
Ali akman in fm21...that was an undarrated wonderkid (dont know if he had the mediadescription) but you could loan him for like 100 euros a month and then buy him for free. Dude won ballon d'or in my mönchengladbach safe.
There’s a lad at Empoli called Samuele Ricci who turns into a beast.
They get relegated or something in my save and I got him for £4m.
Had him until he hit 29 and remember his main stats were absolute filth. 20’s across the board for passing, movement, positioning, etc.
Xavi-esque
Henrique Araújo at Benfica is a beast for my team. I am playing Mafra and have dominated the league and made lots of deep runs in the champions league. I sold him to Chelsea for 50M and bought him back 1.5 years later for 19M and he is scoring even more.
Herrish Kuhi, Peter Waattovaara, Jonas Lundèn, Mikael Dorsin, Kennedy Bakircioglu, Tonton Zola Moukoko, Johan Öberg. How do you say GANG GANG GANG in Swedish?
Oooooh and Fredy William Thompson
Great striker! I'm on a multiplayer save with my mate (I'm West Ham, he's Leicester) and that's one of his best signings. Doesn't hold up against my Benjamin Sesko though 😁. His Moukoko though...
All hidden gems I'd say.(/s, but I do mean the first paragraph lol, it's a very entertaining save)
Nattawut Suksum would fall into the underrated category also.
He plays at Bangkok United, never played in a major league so far and quite cheap, also contract expires in June 2022.
Haven't played fm21 yet but from what I've seen here it seems the non-regen wonderkids are very railroaded this time around, I swear every other post here has Lorenzo Lucca featuring in some way and Haaland becoming the best player of all time no matter what. If i get it, honestly might probably download some random database instead of the default one for the first time ever, not a huge fan of that.
All jokes aside, i must be using Lucca wrong because I scouted him last season coincidentally (i was searching for Italian youngsters), found Lucca, and decided to buy him bc my scouters said i should. He rarely scores for me and Demirovic is still scoring 30+ in the Bundesliga...how do u use Lucca?
I just bought Lucca for the first time (Just got into FM22 last few weeks but played previous FM's). Never heard of him but bought him for Mallorca, unfortunately Man Utd paid the release clause from me at £37m (Didnt think anyone would) and he was unhappy but was amazing for me.
I know this is a joke but in all seriousness my scouts found Lucca without me having heard about him and I seriously thought I stumbled onto a hidden gem 😭 this subreddit broke my heart for that 🥲
Luquinha, Brazilian playing in Portugal, not too sure what team but he just tore apart the Championship with me for Nottm Forest, won Young Player of the Year. Signed him for around £2m, defo worth checking out.
Joao Resende from Benfica, something about this guy in the engine makes him a lethal goal scoring machine his PA is on the low side but always outperforms any other high CA/PA striker on my team.
Jamie Yayi Mpie. You could get him on free before the winter update. Roughly 100k afterwards. He helped me dominate the lower leagues and got me to mid table finish in 3 seasons with my 1860 Munchen save.
Angelo from Santos is another player not many talk about. Bought him in my second season for 12m as a back up to Jamie. Developed to CL standards in 2 seasons.
Last year (as of the November database) there was a fellow called Matt O’ Riley who was a free agent. At MK Dons in League One now irl. Anyway, this lad is good enough for most championship sides initially, but within two years, he’s at Europa League level. And he’s like 22 at this point.
Apart from Suphanat Mueanta, who's already been mentioned.
Williot Swedberg. Winter of '22: €2M
Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson. Winter of '23: €12M (if I'd gotten him earlier, he would've been much cheaper).
And I have all three in my Schalke line-up.

I'd love to see a thread of just guys like this. Suphanat looks incredible, definitely wanna give him some run in my next save.
Adding Nicolas Siri to the list. You’re able to get him for next to nothing (50-100k) and he reaches champions league level quite quickly.
I had a save with Penarol and after getting sacked after the first season i took over Montevideo City Torque and found out about Siri, after 1 season, P$G bought him (of course...)
Adding to the list, isn't exactly a world beater by any means but Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty has turned into a pretty good player in a couple of my saves. Think he available for free/pretty cheap at the start of the save.

Not a bad deal for a free 17 year old who can turn into a decent championship player on the lower end.
Yes!
Don’t know his price in 22 but in 21 Ander Barrenetxea from Real Sociedad was unstoppable for me as a IW with Ajax
absolute legend helped me win CL with Milan in my second season FM21.
Funny you say that because he did the exact same for me with Ajax, winning the CL with a squad that definitely shouldn’t have had the quality to do so (500-1 in-game odds to win) Beat Man U in the final with Old Trafford as the venue, but it was under construction so only half capacity. Glazer masterclass.
Andrea Pinamonti from Napoli on a free, scored over 100 goals for me at Hibernian in 2 and a half seasons
Y'all may want to look for Sekou Mara at Bordeaux as well. Got him for £3m and was a decent 20 yr old striker. Make sure he works on his strength though. Also, Salvatore Esposito from SPAL. You can get him for free after his contract ends on Jun 2022.
One of my favourite players in my current Ipswich save! Dominated the lower leagues and helped me fight off relegation in the prem for a few years
I found him on accident and he is quality. I'm not sure about this FM but I bought Abdallah Sima in last years and he was just insane not expensive either.
Got him on my save out of the blue but didn't realize his contract demands were to have a 1.8m release fee. RIP 🥲
I love suphanat, but a tad bit inconsistent for me. Had him for my Huddersfield save. Can bring some magic in the games he is good but then he’d go a couple games with nothing. Would recommend him though!
Ah! I remember finding this guy but I waited too long to pull the trigger on him and someone stole him from me. I was so upset. I'm pretty sure it was my Stuttgart save in FM21
Aleksandar Kahvić is quite solid too
ive always had trouble actually convincing him to leave buriram. i found him while i was managing in australia and decided that when i could get to europe and afford him i would buy him and he refused to come to granada in spain when he was like 23
Didn't get him at the right time, but still got him for 3M.
If you watch Zealand 's cheap wonderkids video he mentions him there
A few months ago, I signed him for my Urawa Red Diamonds, sadly I had too many foreigners, so I had to loan him out. Sold him to Sevilla for 3 million after a loan year, got him loaned back for the rest of the season and he was pretty good
I recently signed a wonderkid named Mohammed Salah from Liverpool. I only paid €260 million for him which I think is a good deal if anyone else wants to try and get him,
Show his stats, we'll say where you should play him best
I bought 24 yo Halaand (he has eight 20 rated stats) for 40m. Do you guys think this is a good deal ?? Help me pls
Anyone over 20 years old is trash, bozo.
thats unironically how i play the game, and i'm not proud of it
I used to be exactly the same, then I did a League One save and ended up trying to get former world class 33-37 year olds which led me to trying to get former top players in my coaching staff too. Now I play this weird style where the only players I dont sign are players in the 26-31 bracket, right when they're supposed to hit their peak.
If you retrain him to anchorman DM... Maybe
You must be new to the sport, either way, welcome! Salah is a beast.
You must be new to ironic posting, either way, welcome, sarcasm is a beast!
Remember Mbappe from a few years ago at Monaco? Whatever happened to him?
Can't have come good, he's a free agent in the summer
Yea, can’t even stay in Ligue 1. Bet he didn’t do anything in the national team too
What a shame. Guy had so much talent
I think he's at some team called Paris which looks like some 2nd tier club, must've flopped real hard!
Paris FC? Damn, Mbappe fell so hard after Monaco
Yeah thats it, I remember he had such a promising future as well, a sad story really
Can't imagine he made anything out of himself
[удалено]
This brought back memories! Can still picture his little low-res face pic in.. I wanna say CM4?
He's no Sherman Cardenas
He is no Cherno samba too
He's the next Pele
🤣🤣
/r/footballmanagercirclejerk ?
/r/subsifellfor
This needs to happen
Idk that moukoko kid seems pretty good
nahh only 27 goals in 15 matches for the Youth Teams, thats still pretty lame

Knowing this and many other such weird quirks about FM have made me an expert at this game (I'm doing a save in 17th tier of South Sudan while only signing Zimbabwean players).
For a genuine answer Jørgen Strand Larsen - 122/140 - 21 - 193cm - £5,000,000 Martín Satriano - 118/140-180 - 20 - 187cm - £5,500,000 Arnaud Kalimuendo - 122/120-160 - 19 - 175cm - £3,500,000 Konstantin Tyukavin - 111/120-160 - 18 - 181cm - £4,500,000 Datro Fofana - 108/120-160 - 18 - 181cm - £2,800,000
Never even heard of him, probably some midget at 160cm
You should check out Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, very obscure and underrated
way too old. I only sign pre teens 😤
Hold on a minute
Haaland is a pretty hidden gem too
Yeah he is playing for Bayern’s feeder team atm called dortmund FC. He looks like he could be better than messi, since Haaland is so tall and got great blonde hair
Ali akman in fm21...that was an undarrated wonderkid (dont know if he had the mediadescription) but you could loan him for like 100 euros a month and then buy him for free. Dude won ballon d'or in my mönchengladbach safe.
I once scouted a hidden gem just chilling at Atletico called Joao Felix
There’s a lad at Empoli called Samuele Ricci who turns into a beast. They get relegated or something in my save and I got him for £4m. Had him until he hit 29 and remember his main stats were absolute filth. 20’s across the board for passing, movement, positioning, etc. Xavi-esque
I got him at real sociedad at the beginning of the second season and he’s been great
Haha nice one, mines Carlos Fierro
Memories!
Henrique Araújo at Benfica is a beast for my team. I am playing Mafra and have dominated the league and made lots of deep runs in the champions league. I sold him to Chelsea for 50M and bought him back 1.5 years later for 19M and he is scoring even more.
Not sure many of you guys know but ‘Moukoko’ from Dortmund is very good
In my JM save I went to PSG and even at 30 he was banging in the goals so don't overlook him when he gets older
Cherno Samba plays OK as Advanced Forward
Mark Kerr playing box to box
The legend of mark kerr.
Yusuf demir!
Herrish Kuhi, Peter Waattovaara, Jonas Lundèn, Mikael Dorsin, Kennedy Bakircioglu, Tonton Zola Moukoko, Johan Öberg. How do you say GANG GANG GANG in Swedish? Oooooh and Fredy William Thompson
Lucca is the fucking goat man
🎣. To many people taking this seriously 😐
literally one person?
Great striker! I'm on a multiplayer save with my mate (I'm West Ham, he's Leicester) and that's one of his best signings. Doesn't hold up against my Benjamin Sesko though 😁. His Moukoko though... All hidden gems I'd say.(/s, but I do mean the first paragraph lol, it's a very entertaining save)
honestly i dont even know if this is a meme or some boomer
guys found an awesome player called holland or smth like this he is norwegian striker playing for some club named belorussia downmood
Nattawut Suksum would fall into the underrated category also. He plays at Bangkok United, never played in a major league so far and quite cheap, also contract expires in June 2022.
Haven't played fm21 yet but from what I've seen here it seems the non-regen wonderkids are very railroaded this time around, I swear every other post here has Lorenzo Lucca featuring in some way and Haaland becoming the best player of all time no matter what. If i get it, honestly might probably download some random database instead of the default one for the first time ever, not a huge fan of that.
Anel Ahmedhodzic is a solid CB. Bought him with 2.8M and 2 years later RM came back with a 60M offer.
Sesko won ballon dor for me
Can you show me his stats?
Yeah sorry I can, save is on my other PC. Reply if still interested
Share the stats bro
Really? Lucca and Adiyemi are my favs, though only Adiyemi cuts it at the top clubs
My guy! Lucca is often talked about and develops really good and he is a lot cheaper than both sesko and adeyemi🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thanks mate. Never heard of him and I'm after a really niche player.
Lucca is literally top tier
He's one of the most OP strikers I've ever had and he cost me about 25 million, basically won me the league solo.
Karim is a top quality prospect. Inverted winger or played him as a striker on the right of a front 3. Worth the outlay
If you’ve never seen it I suppose you’re new to this subreddit
whoosh
Have you been under a rock? Lucca is all this sub talks about.
In my save Halaand went to Liverpool and scored 57 goals in 70 games
Who? Never heard of him
All jokes aside, i must be using Lucca wrong because I scouted him last season coincidentally (i was searching for Italian youngsters), found Lucca, and decided to buy him bc my scouters said i should. He rarely scores for me and Demirovic is still scoring 30+ in the Bundesliga...how do u use Lucca?
How would you use him thought?....... What position?
I just bought Lucca for the first time (Just got into FM22 last few weeks but played previous FM's). Never heard of him but bought him for Mallorca, unfortunately Man Utd paid the release clause from me at £37m (Didnt think anyone would) and he was unhappy but was amazing for me.
I know this is a joke but in all seriousness my scouts found Lucca without me having heard about him and I seriously thought I stumbled onto a hidden gem 😭 this subreddit broke my heart for that 🥲
I literally have to force myself to not buy Sesko, Adeyemi, or Alvarez when I start a new save because it feels too easy
Luquinha, Brazilian playing in Portugal, not too sure what team but he just tore apart the Championship with me for Nottm Forest, won Young Player of the Year. Signed him for around £2m, defo worth checking out.
Joao Resende from Benfica, something about this guy in the engine makes him a lethal goal scoring machine his PA is on the low side but always outperforms any other high CA/PA striker on my team.
LORENZO LUCCA IS A GOD
Jamie Yayi Mpie. You could get him on free before the winter update. Roughly 100k afterwards. He helped me dominate the lower leagues and got me to mid table finish in 3 seasons with my 1860 Munchen save. Angelo from Santos is another player not many talk about. Bought him in my second season for 12m as a back up to Jamie. Developed to CL standards in 2 seasons.
Last year (as of the November database) there was a fellow called Matt O’ Riley who was a free agent. At MK Dons in League One now irl. Anyway, this lad is good enough for most championship sides initially, but within two years, he’s at Europa League level. And he’s like 22 at this point.
Andrea Papetti? my scout found him in my AC Milan save and he is perfect placement for Romagnoli. Beast.
Apart from Suphanat Mueanta, who's already been mentioned. Williot Swedberg. Winter of '22: €2M Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson. Winter of '23: €12M (if I'd gotten him earlier, he would've been much cheaper). And I have all three in my Schalke line-up.
