Football Manager 2022 is here so it's time to make recruitments that will help your squad for years to come.

France is a country that already has some of the best players in the world, and the next generation looks like it could rival the current.

Read on to find out who the best French wonderkids are in FM22.

Defining French Wonderkids

As many of you will know, a wonderkid is a player under the age of 19 with a high potential ability.

France is going through somewhat of a golden generation, and their star doesn't look like fading any time soon.

You can get ahead of the crowd in FM22 and snap up some of these young talents before they become world-beaters.

A dominant centre-half in the making, Tanguy Nianzou is a hot prospect that should be at the forefront of your mind when building your side in FM22.

Whatever it costs, we're certain that Nianzou will pay it back by winning trophies for your club.

Position(s): AM (LCR), ST

Club: Lyon

Value: £12.5-£16.5 million

Wage: £16,500 a week

Rayan Cherki is a name that we will be hearing for many years to come, and a player that will cause you problems in FM22 if you don't sign him up quickly.

Destined to end up at one of Europe's elite, Cherki is a composed winger that can also operate through the centre, providing the versatility and dynamism that your team has been crying out for.

STARTING STRONG - Agoume needs work on his technical skills

Age: 19

Position(s): M (C), DM, AM (C)

Club: Brest (on loan from Inter)

Value: £15-£19 million

Wage: £6,000 a week

A powerful player that can do the work between both boxes, Lucien Agoume is getting game time away from parent club Inter.

If you bring him to your side expect to get someone with a good physical base but is needing to develop his technical skills.

Adil Aouchiche (CA 116 - PA Range 140-170)

PUSH HIM FORWARD - Aouchiche best suits an offensive role

Age: 19

Position(s): M (C), AM (C)

Club: AS Saint-Etienne

Value: £35-£43 million

Wage: £15,750 a week

It's probably best not to rely on Adil Aouchiche to do a defensive role in the middle of the pitch, as his attributes and work rate for that are quite low.

Where he does excel is on the ball around the box, finding the right crosses and passes to break down the opposition or taking on players himself.

Haissem Hassan (CA 116 - PA Range 140-170)

WING MAN - Hassan has got you covered if you want balls into the box

Age: 19

Position(s): AM (LR)

Club: Mirandes (on loan from Villarreal)

Value: £16-£25 million

Wage: £4,400 a week

If you need someone who can get some space on the edge of the box and put in a deadly cross, Haissem Hassan could be the man for you.

With top dribbling and agility, he can wiggle past players with ease, just don't expect him to get back and help the defence.

Koba Lein (CA 115 - PA Range 140-170)

HIT THE WEIGHTS - Koba Lein could do with bulking up to handle himself better in midfield

Age: 19

Position(s): M (C)

Club: Valencia

Value: £9.2-£12 million

Wage: £3,200 a week

Koba Lein has plenty of training to do if he is to reach full potential, but he is a team player who will recover the ball well before setting up an attack.

With low balance and strength he may become pushed off the ball easily, so get him down the gym!

Timothee Pembele (CA 110 - PA Range 140-170)

ANOTHER SUPER GENERATION - France have their defence sorted for years

Age: 18

Position(s): D (CR)

Club: Bordeaux (on loan from Paris Saint-Germain)

Value: £4.7-£7.4 million

Wage: £4,900 a week

A teenage sensation centre-back currently waiting to breakthrough at PSG, Timothee Pembele is a player that should be at the very top of your wishlist.

Strong, quick, and certain to grow into a star, can you whisk this young kid away from Paris and nurture him into France's next defensive rock?

El Chadaille Bitshiabu (CA 92 - PA Range 140-170)

HOW WILL HE MEASURE UP - Still a lot of development needed for this giant

Age: 16

Position(s): D (C)

Club: Paris Saint-Germain

Value: £4-£8.8 million

Wage: £675 a week

It's quite a mouthful, and you may not have heard of him, but El Chadaille Bitshiabu could be the rock at the back your team needs.

He is still very young so his development will need careful nurturing, but at 6'5" he can make sure crosses don't reach their destination.

Michael Olise (CA 127 - PA 155)
