Juan Hernandez: FM20 Wonderkid Review
Juan Hernandez is one of the best Colombian youth prospects in FM2020. He has decent abilities to start off with and can be honed to be a clinical forward for most league sides.
In the auto-generated save he has remained with Watford for a few seasons although playing opportunities have been hard to come by. He had then moved on to Saint Etienne for £12.25m and has been clinical for the French club since. Although he is only valued at a paltry £8m, he has scored quite a lot of goals in his limited opportunities. He is bound to do under a human manager with a bit more attention to his development.
Despite having limited starts, his average rating of around 7 is testament to his ability. His double-digit goal scores are proof of his finishing abilities and he can be groomed into a powerful forward under the right manager.
