Sky Sports Scout is our exciting new feature where we scour the globe looking out for the best talent and bringing you a report on what we find.

Our Scout will report back and you can comment on what you think of our appraisal.

Also if you want to nominate somebody to feature - please get in touch.

Latest under our scout's gaze is Jack Cork - Recommended by Sky Sports reader Jon Matthews of London.

The scout reports...

Jack Cork is a talented player who is equally adept at a number of roles.

He can play anywhere across the back and is also effective playing as a holding midfielder.

Cork is the son of former Wimbledon star Alan Cork and he is tipped for big things in the game.

The 19-year-old won the Player of the Year award on loan at Scunthorpe last season and has represented England at Under-19 level.

Cork, who is currently on loan at Southampton, is highly-regarded at Chelsea having captained the reserves last term.

The Scout says...

Cork is a manager's dream in that he can play in so many positions and that he does a good job wherever he is asked to perform. Cork is an all-action performer and for someone so young he displays great maturity in his displays.
