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

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

Also, in association with Football Manager, we give all readers the chance to win a copy of the latest game by nominating a player.

You can only nominate a player by emailing here, including the word 'Scout' in your subject line and please check to make sure we haven't already covered the player!

Should your player get reviewed by our scout, and you were first to send in his name, then you will win a copy of Football Manager 2010.

Latest under our scout's gaze is Slavia Prague's Adam Hlousek - recommended by Sky Sports reader Glen Daniels.

The scout reports...

Adam Hlousek is a hugely versatile left-sided player, who many in Czech Republic feel could be one of their best ever talents.

Hlousek sees himself as a striker, but he more often than not is found on Slavia Prague's left and has even played as wing-back.

Hlousek began his career with FK Jablonec - making his debut in 2006 - before he was snapped up by Slavia earlier this year. Before joining Slavia, he had earlier enjoyed a trial in England with Portsmouth.

Since joining Slavia, Hlousek has not let things go to his head and he has adapted very well to life in the capital and earlier this season he was handed his international debut.

Hlousek is technically very good, but his main attribute is his pace, he can run the 100 metres in less than 11 seconds and he uses that with devastating affect. He does not dwell on the ball for too long, instead opting to just beat his man with his pace.

He is also a good striker off the ball and is already taking most of Slavia's set-pieces.

Already being watched by clubs from across the continent, Hlousek has spoken of his desire to play at the highest level - but only after he has further learnt his trade with Slavia.

The scout says...

A thoroughly professional, dedicated and very exciting young player, who works very hard on his game and it comes as little surprise he is now being rewarded with plenty of plaudits.

A real star of the future, Hlousek will be high on the wanted list of a number of clubs this summer - but his excellent attitude to his game means he is likely to stay with Slavia for at least another season beyond this one.
