FM 2014 Wonderkids To Watch — Robert Gonçalves

Robert Gonçalves

Club: Fluminense (Brazil)

Position: AMC

Age: 16 (17 in September)

Nationality: Brazilian

The kids a bit like: Messi

Interested clubs: Juventus & Inter Milan

You may not know Robert, he’s only 16 years old and hasn’t featured in the Fluminense first team. This potential FM 2014 wonderkid has lit up various youth competitions such as the Copa Sao Paulo and the Al-Kass youth tournaments. We don’t have many match facts to go off, but lots of glowing reports from professional coaches and scouts. Just check out what Paulo Freitas, the Football Manager head researcher for Brazil told Bleacherreport.

Robert is a very talented midfielder, with good technical skills. He is also creative, making chances for others with his excellent passing abilities.

Freitas will most likely have final say on Robert’s ability in game, judging by the interview he must surely be a Football Manager 2014 wonderkid. This kid has amazing skills, the ball sticks to his feet like static and he can dance a way through the biggest of blockades. Just watch the video below, the standard of opposition may not be great, but this kids talent is obvious for all to see.

What should we expect from this FM 2014 wonderkid? I think he’ll be most comfortable sat in the hole, just behind the striker and a role of attacking midfielder or advanced playmaker seem likely. Expect incredible dribbling, flair, creativity, agility and some largely impressive technical attributes on the whole. Upon FM 2014‘s release, I know the first name I’m looking for, Robert of Fluminense!

Thanks to Niklas93 for the suggestion and information on Robert.
