If you don't know who Moukoko is, then get to know.

The Dortmund forward may be just 16 years of age, but he certainly knows where the back of the net is.

Moukoko scored 141 goals for Dortmund's youth setup, which is impressive in itself, but when you hear that he did it in just 88 games, it's mindblowing.

He broke the record for the youngest player to ever appear in the Bundesliga when he made his debut back in November.

In scoring against Union Berlin last month, Moukoko is now the youngster ever goalscorer in the German top flight's history.

Need we say anymore?

Arrival Date

Again, we don't have a confirmed date for the Winter Update but we do know that, once it does arrive, so will Moukoko.

We've pencilled Tuesday, February 16 into our diaries, so hopefully, we won't have too long to wait before we can get the German leading us to FM glory.

Highest-Rated Youngster

Sports Interactive haven't revealed the ratings for the Dortmund man as of yet, but they have confirmed that he will be "one of the highest-rated young players in the game"

"t’s safe to say that Moukoko’s going to be one of the highest-rated young players in the game when he makes his debut in the post-January data update"
