Latest under our scout's gaze is Spartak Moscow midfielder Jano Ananidze - recommended by Sky Sports reader Tony Barrett.

The scout reports...

Jano Ananidze is attracting a lot of attention after making his debut for the full Georgian side aged just 16.

It is fair to say that Georgia have fast-tracked him to their senior squad to fend off Russian interest, but this should not detract away from the fact that Ananidze is a special talent.

An attacking midfielder with a huge amount of flair, he has was spotted very early by Spartak scouts and integrated into their youth system.

He has shone for Spartak's youth side, attacking with pace and guile, and he is already part of Valery Karpin's first-team squad.

Ananidze was handed his first-team debut by Karpin earlier this year and he scored in the Russian Cup against Krasnodar.

Light on his feet and baby-faced, many would assume that Ananidze is not ready for the first-team, but the boy has something special.

His frame will bulk up, but he is already good enough and strong enough to hold his own against men twice his age. Reminiscent in style to Barcelona's Xavi, Ananidze can pick a pass with unerring ease and he has a very cool head in front of goal.

The scout says...

Ananidze has huge potential and he is in a good place with Spartak, who will nurture him without rushing him.

It is unlikely his burgeoning talent will not be, if it hasn't already, spotted by Europe's top clubs, but expect him to stay and mature at Spartak in the short to medium term.
