People are stuck inside and Football Manager is the only saving grace for a lot of us football fans.
Thankfully the powers that be have made the latest iteration, FM2020, free to play on steam until 3PM (GMT) March 25th.
This list of 10 ‘off-centre’ wonderkids should help inject your squad with some quality, young talent in a number of positions.
We’ve tried to steer away from any obvious choices such as Donnarumma, De Ligt, Haaland and so on – because where’s the fun in that?
