I have played Football Manager for a long time and I have played Football Manager for a lot of hours. I have never seen a wonderkid this good. I honestly thought it was impossible and in real life it almost is. A wonderkind so good on FM they could walk into a Premier League dressing room at 15 years old and make an impact on the field. That is before you even get to what this wonderkid could become in a few years.
This video isn’t just for oogling though. I take you through how I found this player of all players and how you can find them too. There’s also the small problem of keeping your FM wonderkids safe from PSG, Man United, and Real Madrid, so we talk about the strategies you need to keep your best young players in your squad and away from those pesky transfers. The key is signing them to a 20-year contract when they’re 15. That is not a thing in Football Manager but oh my goodness I wish it was.
Much Love,
FM Senpai

The shirt you have recieved is SO good.
The shape of the shirt's draw is Galicia's map, the region where Coruña plays. Deportivo's logo is located exactly in the same point as Coruña city is located. Also the colors used are the same as the region flag. You are so lucky man
Yes, it's a seriously cool shirt, and I say that from Vigo! Depor's away shirts in the last few years have been pretty cool.
And the sponsor, Estrella Galicia, is our region's most popular beer! The logo is for the alcohol-free version because you can't advertise alcoholic drinks in Spanish football.
It’s worth noting that whilst it’s a class shirt it’s probably not “lucky”. These companies know when they’re sending a shirt to a big streamer. Normal people aren’t going to get that. They’re going to get a plain Joma goalkeeper kit
Galicia is Portugal!!
are you the real Luis Cepeda?
I found the best wonderkid of all time by using in game editor. Mayyyyybe i created him 🤔
Did he automatically join your team? 🤔🤔
@@8Tarkus8 no, strangely he appeared from nowhere and was valued at 300mill but when i checked transfer ls it says signed for 400k. Myabes its my good scouting team and recruitment 🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@insidiousbeatz48 🤣🤣
@@stansheppard8929 who said scunthorpe didn't have legendary recruitment 🤔🤔🤔
Hahaha this is way to relatable 😂
I mean... Outrageous catch from the Scunthorpe scouting team
I forgot to press the subscribe button and all my wonderkids went to PSG.
As a spaniard, pretty jealous about the shirt. Fun fact, the pattern in white is the region of Galicia, and the logo is at the exact spot where A Coruña is!
It would be funny if the "wonderkid" already has reached his potential.
It happened to me... Got him out of the youth academy with 149 CA and 151 PA...
It's happened to me too, however it's more likely at 17 than at 15.
@@Ravenblood21 Is it? I thought it was completely random...
Neil Mellor, in other words?
@@JallaBalla it is completely random, but by force, it is more likely to happen at 17, because at 17 they've had 1-2 years of developing done.
From my experience a fairly professional will always develop. Maybe your “wonderkid” had a shit personality
Hasn't cropped up much for wonderkids but the "I'll let you go for this price being met" has worked well for me in FM22, even with the opening price offer being above what I'd be prepared to sell for. Pair that with adding to transfer list, teams never seem to offer the price and the player eventually backs down
Been using that method for a while now and i can guarantee you you will find some wonderkids pretty easy
It’s the best way imo
Whats the method?
@@thomasDiamond8 it’s at the beginning of the video😂. Manuall scouting international tournaments and finding players playing abive there level ex: u18 players playing for a u21 team
@@kyledittman8408 do you have to wait for an international cup or event going on in order to find the best players w this method? For instance will this method work in the beginning of a brand new save ?
@@kyledittman8408 haha woeps these videos are too long man my bad
I clicked the subscribe button 2 times in a row and then got a wonderkid in my youth intake. Thank you so much for the luck, Zealand!
Great video and better Jersey! Saw this on the other channel and it was awesome!
Checking U21 is my favorite way of finding newgens and the best way to spot a good one is to look for the youngest at U21 or even senior team, if at the age of 15 or 16 he is good enough to play for U21 then he is a potential player and for senior teams 18-21 age could be a great player. The only tricky part is that they won't always be selected for theit natinal team U21 or senior squad. Happend in my save where Roony Bardghji was not selected for the U21 even though we all know his potential so you have to check regularly eventually they will apear.
I had one of these in a 2021 save, an austrian wonderkid striker who joined my club at the age of 16 (19m), and when he hit 20 he scored 42 goals in the league, 60 in total. LOVED That kid. But then he made a ruckus and wanted to leave, sold him for 127m to Man Utd. In the 18 seasons he played at Atalanta and Utd, the last two seasons at Utd he had less than a 7.00 average rating, once (last year) played less than 27 matches in the league season. His first year (aged 16/17) played 33 matches scored 22 goals. Highest average rating of 7.79 (the 42 goal season). When he was 15 at FK Austria Vienna he played 27 matches, 15 goals, av rating 7.13 . He never was the best striker in the world, but he was so freaking excellent, he was one of the favourite players I ever had. Ended his career with 132 caps for Austria and 94 goals. Lennart Ertl.
Oha klingt ja nice
Love the way he incorporates subscribing to his channel into being a major component of finding great youth players. Of all the ways to sneak that in there, that was a nice touch 👌
This man is so much in love with this regen 😂😂😂
He's amazing
Can't blame him lol
My best wonderkid on FM22 came from Man City’s squad. He wanted out because in 1.5 seasons he only played 4 times. He was trying to get a starting spot over Haaland and I believe Adeyemi. I bought him for 70 mil at the age of 18 and from 19-23 he won the Ballon Dor all those years, and every single award imaginable.
Weirdly I have avery similar story. Signed a 19 year old from man city for 100 million who was unsettled due to not playing. But he was scoring practically a goal per game for the French national team (15 goals in 17 I think) after 2 years he looked like a right flop, playing about 20 tines and only scoring 6, but then he randomly hit form and scored 30+ goals winning the Ballondor and the European golden Boot. He's now 26, has won 5 Ballindors in a row, has won the premier league holden boot 5 times in a row and has just scored 46 from 34 in the Premier league and 81 from 60 in all competitions in a single season. Olivier Galle you fucking legend.
Not to mention he also helped me to 4 premier league titles and 3 champions league titles in the space space 5 years with carlisle united and is my captain - he's one of those special players who can literally deal with anything, I never talk to players anymore because he talks to them and they back down instantly.
@@aidanm5849 Something funny is that Olivier Galle is the French CM for SI 😂
He is also a streamer, his nickname is Guru
If a wonderkid is asking for a release clause and you are not able to remove it, let him have it. After a successful contract extension, the player will stay during the recent transfer window. Repeat this step at every transfer window and the player will always stay at your club. This way I was able to keep a wonderkid at my club (2. Bundesliga) for 3 years straight, after that (and a couple of successful seasons) I could finally remove the release clause during contract negotiations.
Zebstrika feels like such a random Pokémon to use for that animation until you remember Juventus' name thanks to the licensing issue, absolutely top tier!
Validation! I do this and spend hours scouring the u20's etc around the world! Gratz on Biver 👏🏼
I believe the story behind the non-alcoholic beer is actually quite a smart way to bend the rules. Clubs in Spain aren't allowed to have alcohol sponsors on their shirts so to get round this, they advertise the alcohol company's non-alcoholic range!
I remember when regens where exact copys of retiring players it was so easy to find wonderkids. Especially players who could play several positions where so easy to find. Always kept track of who was retiring towards the end of a season.
Fun fact, there was a game in the early 2000s (I think called Premier League Football Manager) that had a very strange quirk. Every player got replaced be an exact copy Newgen...except for any player on your team who got replaced with a totally random Regen. Because happiness and squad dynamics weren't a thing, I would set up a really nifty setup where I had 3 squads at all times. The 30+ legends who I would use for subs until they were close to retiring and then sell/release a year before they did (then add to shortlist), themid-20s superstars, and then the teenage Newgens. The game had a funky thing where if you added a player to your shortlist, then their Newgen would replace them on your SL when they retired. So it was easy for me to find X player's replacement and then stick them in my youth group for their next life.
As much as I absolutely love developing youngsters, I really miss that insane setup.
Dude, I'm from Coruña and seeing Deportivo's kit in this video was crazy, haha. That is the 3rd kit and the shirt shows Galicia (the region where the team is from). The blue is the sea and the white is the land. I think it's a beautiful shirt!
Sick kit! I was looking at buying this one!
Man im from A Coruña and I cant believe they gave u that shirt. I love it
When will you make a video on features you hope are in the new FM? Would be nice to see it also divided into urgency (for example personal hopes, necessary/musts and recommendations)
That Pokemon-scene with Zebstrika as Juventus and even having the logo in it, brilliant.
So simple and yet so obvious. Great tip checking age of players on the youth rosters of national teams. Probably lots of hidden gems in there.
This is very similar to the Second Yellow Card’s video on his scouting method. Both great methods
Second yellow card's is the best find the best wonderkids now
The editing was awesome in this video
He Zealand, great video helping me allot after not playing for a couple of years started playing again. Got a question tho, I started with Twente not a lot of money so a bit of a challenge currently I'm scouting in country's like Iraq, Iran, Indonesia that kind of countries, cheap but good players, can you recommend any more of the lesser football countries to scout.
Thanks a lot and keep going, loving the videos
The pokemon segment with Juventus being confused and it's symbolized by a Zebra is pure gold.
This is a good way to find them but it can miss some of the gems also. Like I had a 188 PA Portuguese Winger I found in 3rd tier of Portugal. Paid like 3m for him. He only got called up to youth teams once or twice, even though he had like 140 CA and I was competing for the Serie A title and he was starting regularly. When Portugal finally called him up to the National team when he hit 165 CA when he was 21. And he had like 80 days left until he was an Italian Citizen and would be eligible for Italian National team and would probably start for Italy :D They literally wait for the last days to call him up :D
I think because the fact that portugal is a large nation (top 6 in europe), you can check whether he capped for portugal youth team. I usually just scout the u21-u19 teams for really cheap deals.
Found similar spanish midfield player like at 15-16 yo, with crazy attributes like most of them 15-16, he was playing full matches at 16yo in my ligue 1 team, later he was sold for around 200+ mil at 23 yo.
Beaver (sic) is absolutely outrageous. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out.
I wonder if we'll see him bag 40 or 50 goals in a single season before he gets transfered or Zealand moves to another save.
Checking the tournaments and U21,20,18 teams is the best way by miles to find the wonderkids before the big boys get them!
Nxt gen 50 is the best one , find so many youth players from random countries that turn into beasts for next to nothing, lots of Eastern Europeans, South Americans and Middle Eastern wonderkids always on there that I wouldn't find otherwise
@@chaz2705 I agree that it’s a great source…but my way gets you mostly the same players BEFORE they get onto that list! The amount of times I’ve seen one of my players appear on that list AFTER I’ve bought them is crazy! Even signed the #1 beforehand once! It is incredibly time consuming doing it my way…I will admit to that!
@@GIBBO4182 agreed, literally had the NxtGen list yesterday in my save, we’re currently at the end of an international break for World Cup qualifying and I had already started scouting and at least had decent knowledge of every single player on the list (no.1 is a Dutch striker I signed 1.5 years ago after seeing him play for u21 at 16, he’s now just turned 18 and already capped for the national team, and no.4 is an Italian attacking mid I signed at the start of the season when he was 15 after again seeing him play for the Italy u21s. No.20 and No.41 were two of my home grown youth prospects. Seeing no players I hadn’t seen before on the list was both boring and rewarding haha
@@samn90834 when you’re a smaller club or you’re trying to bridge the gap from top 6 to winning the league it’s the only way…it takes a lot of time finding the players and a lot of patience waiting for them to improve…but that’s how I like to play the game!
@@chaz2705 yea, and you can't get work permits for any of them!
Ca 120, pa 135. Seen it so often haha
Another UA-camr had this strategy posted a long time ago, it is very effective
Dude. Im here to see the wonder kit. When's Jan 1st gonna be streamed?
The away kit for deportivo also is pretty awesome
The stats are amazing. Really good.
In fact too good. Probably has a comparatively low PA so little room for growth.
Guys, if your best wonderkid is Youssoufa Moukoko you're clearly don't play Football Manager enough...
I don’t know. In my game Moukoko became easily the best player of all time. Over a goal a game for pretty much 17 years.
@@daviebananas1735 yeah I know but signing him has nothing to do with great scouting or eye for talent so to speak. You just know he will become one of the greatest players. Looking up actual Wonderkids is not scouting.
@@PESandNHL There isn't something as "great scouting or eye for talent". You don't actually watch the players play and evaluate their talent. You just look at attributes and stars and make your decisions from there. It isn't quantum physics, it's actually pretty easy. People play the game however they want to play. Some people love buying up all the newgens then selling them and becoming the next PSG just by using the wonderkid oil. Some people like to play the regular teams with real life players and updated squads - that's really why you would buy a new game, if you just have a hard-on on wonderkids and tier 10 football, then new games change almost nothing for you. Some people do both and have fun. Just because you enjoy playing the game your way, doesn't mean other people don't play the game differently - that's the beauty of sandbox of football manager.
Also, I've played 20 seasons once and Mbappe and Haaland were the best players (getting the golden ball or however its called) until they got too old, then some random striker with 180 PA became the best player in the world. The game just didn't spawn those truly amazing Messi/Ronaldo type regens. Some people on the other hand have a full squad of 200PA players. Moukoko might just be the best player for 20 years in some saves.
@@TrykusMykus Yeah in every single game it's Mbappe, Haaland winning all the awards until Moukoko takes over or maybe some random regen. But for me these real life wonderkids just don't count as wonderkids per se i've found just because i can just look them up on the internet. If i find a regen 180PA+, that's on me and nobody else can find this one. The wonderkids in my save are original, as are yours and everyone elses. That's whats so great about FM. I'll call this scouting or eye for talent. Sure i'll just look at their attributes.
So not my point (knowing that moukoko is a great wonderkid) just making a joke about people playing not enough FM. I'm an FM addict and just get really far in some saves. I'll even use Daveincid his mods to make the regens spawn weaker for more realism. I've seen all those players online or even guys which their 200PA farm but let's be honest here... that's just cheated and not possible in a normal game. So stop making more out of this than it is.
@@PESandNHL The randomness in games allows for some players to have more 200PA regens and some to have none. That's not cheating lmao.
And as I said, you enjoy playing the game that way and you can find another person who will complete 10 different saves and have fun. One way of playing is not better than the other, you have fun with mods, others prefer vanilla, why does that bother you?
I found on FM20 that the Brazil U-20 team is a gold mine. Signed three players from there and are all rated at 4 star PA
should do an experiment of two teams with same current ability but one is all the same number on all of their attributes and the other is tailor made for their position to see how much of an effect it has in game
Another way to hack around release clauses is to reduce the contract to 1 year, as this changes the shortest expiry date you can choose, you then put the contract back up to your desired length, but the expiry date stays short, meaning that within a year the release clause is gone and you have you rplayer for another 5 years.
A few years back I got a 15yr old Brazilian DM who had 5 20s off the bat...never seen anything like it before or since!
I find it easier to sift through bad reports by heading to the scouting screen and the clicking the list option. That way you can select players en masse and clear the reports quickly
I can't believe he does it one by one. Crazy.
The best wonderkids ever were on previous versions. Maradona's regen was always a highlight. I miss those days. Unrealistic but such fun finding youth regens of legends.
What, really ? That sounds insane :D
@@5minutemovies977 back on cm 2 and cm 3, this was how regens worked.
Did they have the same name?
@@rajanmoore No, always unique names. There's a video on this on youtube somehwhere.
just wondering, have you covered the stopping a team comming in and bidding to unsettle your player to get them on the cheap. I've had this more than a few times in the scottish leagues. Gets very fustrating. I've even tried to save to see if there was one option to get a ok outcome. but I'd say 995 I end up with the player leaving.
If it looks like a big club is going to match the release clause of a wonder kid and you can't get them to sign a new contract I usually try sell them for less than the release clause but then always have something like a clause where we receive 50% of the profit made on the next sale. This at least gives you a better chance of making more money off them.
Always done this, scouring through youth nationals to find the youngest, set scout on them and/or look at their wages. You can get FM´ed at times if you buy masked players on a whim, usually though it pays off huge. Got my 2 star Columbians that way in my current Wrexham game plus a bunch of others which have either been sold for profit or are on the verge of the first team.
Side note: Holy shit that shirt was class
Coruna is the club I’m with in my journey save. We are in CL after coming second my best player was a Serbian regem haaland. Same build, fast and strong on the ball. I got for 5 mil and now he’s worth 60mil+ his name is Dragan bogdanovic
Sounds like u got Vlahović like Fiorentina
I got the best wonderkid from Estudiantes in a save with Benfica, could play every position in the defense. Never got to manage him because he was 17 and could only leave the country at 18 and I left Benfica for Real Madrid. Wish I could put a screenshot of his stats.
Love Zealand opening the mystery shirt and acting like every teenage boy receiving a Lynx deodorant gift set on Christmas morning and pretending to be delighted and appreciative
I forgot Deportivo even existed - might have to start a save with them
Zealand you want to change the view you are using when going through youth squads en masse.
I like to add scouting knowledge level / ability / potential to the columns.
That way you can easily see who has been scouted already, and sometimes it even reminds you to go back and re-scout some players if you didn't add them to any shortlists at the last run through.
That Pokémon segment was genius. Zebre hahahahahaha
I've had 3 players that were 200PA. One was a Chinese goalkeeper, an absolute unicorn.
I use a similar method however I don't wait until there are Youth tournaments but wait for an international break then go through squads of youth international teams. I started to use this method (Vis-a-vis wiring the world) as I saw Second Yellow Card having great success finding wonderkids on stream using this method and my assigned scouts were not bringing in many players at all.
I used to do that but it's very time consuming. What they need is an option on the start of the game to just have all players on the database known to you. Similar to how you can switch off attribute masking.
The best players are often not called up to the national team unless they are playing games
@@loganadams1205 That's why I search during the international break as the players have been called up to the squads. You might miss some players but you'll find the majority of the best regens using this method.
@@kevinb9830 I assign my scouts to youth tournaments when they happen. My scouts don't find too many players themselves but when I go through the squads I already have an initial star rating I unless a player is 15 or 16 I only select players with at more than two stars. I'm also able to rule out players I've previously scoured once I've done the process at least once. If that's too time consuming then go through reliable talent producing nations such as Colombia and Serbia as you will still find plenty of wonder kids.
YES! SYC's is the best but is too time consuming. I do player search, int caps 1, youth caps 1, and scout everybody with at least half a star rep. I do this every month during int breaks and January and again in July. So much faster.
To keep getting on Youth Tournaments use something called "Screen Flow"
I love the Pokemon reference, SO much.
How many seasons did it take you to get 19 scouts? That’s phenomenal.
I just found out you can select many players and scout them all at once, thanks!
My scout found 16 years old with 198PA. In the end they can be useful.
Who
@@gazlaffey1325 who what?
Knowing their PA is basically cheating.
You’re cheating.
@@daviebananas1735 which part of "my scout found" you didn't understand?
aaaand he was bought from my favourite IRL team, that's so amazing
5:30 That caught my interest ngl
Oh yeah, it's Beaver time 😎
Sick Depor kit
When they are mad because a move was rejected promise you will accept a certain amount and then put asking price like 5-10 million below agreed amount. No one will offer more than the asking price so the promise you made to a player wont be broken. Just a thing i found that always worked for me.
kinda just sounds like bug abuse tbh
@@Alliegator93 it kinda is but i dont mind
Nice Biver!

You are my favourite American Kiwi who is also British.
Hello👋🏾...unrelated but could you jump on this Premier League All-Star North Vs South thing using FM
Nah that's weird, I'm doing a Deportivo save right now and you got a Deportivo shirt.
The truly best player I EVER found was a french defensive midfielder back in the ol' fm15, still remember the name Mathys Kremer, found him in a amateur french club, his current abilitiy was already at 74.ish percent, his potential ability however... was at 99.12 percent, numbers I never forgot, everything was on his 19s and 20s...except...technique, had an average of 12-15 tackles per game and an assist or goal as well, i ended one season with him havbing 56 assists and 39 goals... JUST 4 goals from my best forward which funny enough was...the regen or Ronaldo (the phenom), that kid after just 8 months in my youth team became a starting lineup player when he was 15 and change years old. Fuck I love FM!
Absurd wonderkid and a great deportivo la coruna kit in the same video... Kinda jealous
A slight variation on this approach: I had a look at the youth teams of Argentina’s first division clubs and found a 15 year old defender who was already playing for Velez Sarsfield’s senior team. Scouting reports indicated high potential so paid six million for him and waited the two years for him to arrive. By the time he arrived he had played 100 senior games and was considered a wonderkid; he’s slotted right into my defence and shortly after won his first senior caps for Argentina. He’s an absolute gun already and he’ll get a lot better.
I personally like using the "their offer wasn't good enough" argument. You're usually able to make them agree to ridiculous prices nobody will match
Nothing like some Zealand knowledge on meh birthday! woot woot
1:22 Zealand trying to explain to the FBI why hes looking for kids 18 or under
What transfer fee would it be to get you over to OF? Just an enquiry.
This is how I always find my wonderkids.
5:06 I want this
I already used this method I thought it was well known
Wonder will we see much of him before FM23
Seeing Pokémon in a Zealand video makes me want a nuzlocke
NOICE!
Like that one time I had a plethora of piñatas.
What database do you need to be able to scout like this?
FM genie scout 😌
Can't find any video about manager attributes? Do they matter? What attributes do you have? You play your save with highest manager attributes?
Which database are you playing? How many countries you are simulating?
I wish they'd sort out how regens look, they looked ok a couple of years ago and they've actually gone backwards.
Thought this was a known method since CM days
I found a generational talent in Turkeys U 21 whilst managing the national team
My best wonderkid signing is always Moukoko on a free in fm21 cuz he seems to always accept a contract offer at 17
I once signed a 16 year old Sammarinese cdm for Brighton on fm19, he was vanarama national league level player but won my player of the year on our first season back in the prem after getting relegated 2 years before. Just thought I’d share this 😂 Also, he had 18 tackling but absolutely fuck all else 😂
Camiseta del depor!! Jajajajaj grande!!
I’ve only been doing this since FM12 lol. Thought this was standard
Hi, maybe it's not the best time to say that, but if you're going to start feeling insecure abt your hair please don't worry, because you'd look very good bald, which means you're good looking so hair shouldn't be a concern for you
Banger vid btw watching them for few months now
Bless
You gotta love that "streamers luck" when getting mystery kits. I wouldn't get depor if I ordered 1000000 packages.
Don't know if it still works in fm22, but in fm20 you can remove clauses for contracts if the lock is orange by making an offer with a red locker on the clause, after that you're able to just remove the clause and offer them a contract
