Football Manager 2016: 20 Wonderkids You Will Need To Sign

12. Nikola Ninkovic

While Zivkovic is rated highly, his teammate and partner-in-crime Nikola Ninkovic has been picked out as a star in the making by the club's own top academy coach, Zvonko Popovic, who said: €œGod gave him an enormous talent and an unbelievable feel for dribbling. He€™s our Zinedine Zidane and when the time comes, I€™m sure he will become the most valuable player in the history of Serbian football." Even being mentioned in the same breath as Zidane should get people excited about Ninkovic, though his attitude has been called into question after racially abusing England's Danny Rose during an international U23 game. If he can cool his temperament, he could be incredible.
