Football Manager 2022: 10 Wonderkids You Must Sign

Position(s): M(C), AM(C), DM
Nationality: NED
Club: Ajax
Age: 19

Every transfer window that goes by with Ryan Gravenberch remaining at Ajax is becoming more and more surprising at this point. The Dutch midfield maestro has been tipped for a move to a club in the top four leagues for a few years now, however the reigning Eredivisie champions have managed to retain their former academy product until January at least. With also ten senior caps for the Netherlands team he is well on his way to fulfilling his promise in real-life and Football Manager seems to agree.

Gravenberch will be fairly pricey to pry away from Ajax but with a Current Ability of 137 he should be ready to slide into most teams from the get go and with a well rounded skill set he will fit into almost any tactic no problem. He also has a Potential Rating that can fall anywhere between 150 and 180 so you can rest assured that regardless of which version you get in your save then you are likely getting a player that will hold down the centre of the park for years to come.
