Football Manager 2020 top 10 cheap wonderkids less than £1million on FM20

As you would expect Football Manager 2020 is jam-packed with wonderkids, but most of them already command an impressive price tag. Here are some for all those bosses with a modest budget

Football Manager has returned for another season, and as we previously pointed out, the most enjoyable aspect of the game is unearthing and developing wonderkids.

Nothing beats scouting an upcoming youngster, taking a chance on him, and watching him transform into the next Lionel Messi under your stewardship.

The problem is though, given inflation in the real-life game, which has been mirrored perfectly in the digital world of FM20, even unknown wonderkids can cost a bomb.

This is fine if you’re managing Manchester United or Paris Saint-Germain, where you can blow your rivals away with your budget.

But what if you’re a Football Manager purist with very high expectations but a relatively modest budget, eh? Then what? Well fortunately for you we’ve got your back. Here are a list of some ‘more affordable’ wonderkids.

Note:The price listed is the market value of said player when you start the game. This will change and clubs may demand a higher fee to sell.
