Football Manager 2021: 10 Wonderkids You Will Need To Sign
9. Maarten Vandervoordt
A good goalkeeper is crucial for any team hoping to harbour any serious aspirations of success in Football Manager. Goalkeepers generally enjoy a long prime in their playing careers and command less of a fee than their outfield counterparts, so signing a prospect can be particularly rewarding.
In FM21, Genk goalkeeper Maarten Vandevoordt is an excellent choice to stand between the sticks. The keeper follows a long-line of talented Belgian stoppers, and even became the youngest goalkeeper ever to feature in the Champions League last year.
Of course, for those taking charge of teams where money is no object, it might be worth shelling out a sizeable sum to bring in a more proven prospect like AC Milan's Gianluigi Donnarumma, but with the right guidance and a bit of patience, Vandevoordt can prove to be a world-class addition to any team.
