FM 2020 CHEAP WONDERKIDS

The name Maldini might be more associated with defenders, but Daniel, the latest player to come from the famous Italian family, is bucking the trend by being a left winger. Luckily for FM players, he's not just riding the coattails of his famous name and has the potential to be a legend at any club he ends up at.

His stats at the beginning of the game are pretty decent for someone of his age. His natural fitness (14), acceleration (14) and technical ability (14) all lend themselves to a winger who is going to put in a shift on either flank. He's also a bit of a dead ball specialist too, having decent free kick (14) and corner (13) stats.

All of these attributes can be improved upon with enough time, which helped him become a genuine threat during the FM saves we scouted him in. . He flourished at Milan, quickly becoming their main inside forward and providing an abundance of goals for the Italian side. He also did exceptionally well in England too, joining Frank Lampard's Chelsea team and becoming a force in the Premier League.

His asking price at the beginning of the game is £100,000, which is cheap for a player with so much potential. However, you'll struggle to get him at the start as his heart is firmly set on making it in Milan. Don't give up on him forever though as he might be enticed by the move in the future.
