Football Manager 2022: 10 Wonderkids To Sign From South America
3. Kaiky
Club: SAN
Nationality: Brazilian
Position(s): D(C)
Potential Ability (PA): 140 - 170
A dependable Centre-Back can be worth their weight in gold, which is good because it will likely take almost that amount to get your hands on this one.
A skillful and well-rounded Centre-Back in the mould of Thiago Silva, Kaiky is likely going to cost you somewhere in the region of £30million, which is very steep for a 17-year-old CB. However, what you will have is one of the best young defenders in the game as long as the Potential Ability range gods are smiling down on you when you start your save.
With a PA Range of 140 -170, you could be looking at a world class Centre-Back if you are lucky enough for Kaiky’s PA to land near the upper limit, meaning that you may not have to worry about that position for a long, long time.
He will need some time to develop in your Reserve Squads. However, with his attribute set at the start of the game already strong for a Ball Playing Defender, it likely won’t be long before he’s ready for some First-Team appearances.
