scouting methods

by elholm, Jan 29, 2026

I know this topic is a little off in terms of what this site is about, but I'm wondering if someone has the best scouting methods to find the best wonderkids/players in the game, both manually and maybe recruitment focuses (eventhough they're terrible). I'm currently managing in the lower divisions in England and so, I'm looking at ways to find the hidden gems that cost close to nothing, but obviously want to know the methods aswell for when I rise to the top.

I'd suggest starting with Second yellow card's Youtube videos on scouting for fm26 but also 24 and 23. Pretty much everything I use are watered down versions of his methods and even that is more than enough. I've seen a lot of guides from other people but there are barely any ideas outside of what he suggests. And his videos are probably the most comprehensive collection of tips and methods. Just don't go for all of it at once because it'll be way too much work. Pick a few you like and test them out and then swap out if they don't produce results you want.
