Up this week for the scout is Czech Republic's
Lukas Marecek who was recommended by
Sky Sports reader - Jan Vasek - who wins a copy of Football Manger 2009!
The scout reports...
Lukas Marecek has become a key player for FC Brno under coach Petr Ulicny, despite being absolutely unknown to most of the public only a couple of months ago.
This summer he appeared in the Under-19 European Championship and helped the Czechs to win bronze medals and he was marked as the main star of the team.
As he himself says, his preferred position is in centre midfield, having a free hand on attacking.
FC Brno use him more often as a defensive midfielder, thanks to his physical presence and great fitness, although Marecek has no problems playing this role.
Marecek has big potential and he can only grow alongside his midfield team-mates from FC Brno, Tomas Polach, a veteran playmaker with a great vision, and another great young talent, Marek Strestik.
The scout says...
He is skilled in passing and also is very calm when in possession of the ball, he can keep it and does not panic like many other players do with unnecessary passes.
