With the list of goalkeeper wonderkids of FM2020 published yesterday, it’s time to take a closer look on the FM20 central defender wonderkids and most promising centrebacks. It continues our focus to highlight the best Football Manager 2020 wonderkids and talents.

It’s the ultimate place to discover ‘all’ central defenders with the highest potential in FM20. The list of FM20 central defenders features players born after 01.07.1998, and can be labelled as Under-21 centrebacks, and covers youngsters from South America in west to Eastern Europe.

Here you’ll find the next Jaap Stam, ball playing defenders in similar character of John Stones and Gerard Pique plus a number of centre backs that’s labelled as promising talents and needs your attention and trust to develop into great players in the future.

To help you find and keep track of the wonderkids development, we’ve compiled a massive shortlist of the best Football Manager 2020 wonderkids. It includes all players from every position and will be updated until Football Manager 2021 release.

PS. If you shouldn’t find a specific player within the list, he might have been added to one of the other (depending on what’s his natural position).
