We go back to Palmeiras, but this time we are looking at one of their forwards. The 17-year-old Giovani is possibly the rawest prospect in this list, but his upside is as high as anyone's.

Even at such a tender age, he has already caught the eye of the club's fans, scoring on his debut in a 3-1 away win over Cuiabá. The talented trickster operates best from the right flank in the role of an inverted winger, which allows him to use his pace and dribbling to cut inside and look for the goal.

He is left-footed, which is a very rare and precious commodity in world football, and therefore in Football Manager. Every serious team needs at least one left-footer that can give you different options in attack, and if your team is lacking in that department, then Giovani is your man.

Yes, he is raw and unpolished, but that is one of the reasons we play FM after all -- to turn lumps of coal into diamonds. Well, this particular lump of coal will set you back only about £1.8 - £5.4 million, so get in before someone like PSG steals him from you.

Big fan of TV shows, music, and indie films. Gets too emotional when watching football. Secretly thinks he could run a Premier League club based only on his time spent playing Football Manager.
