It is a blank cheque to build the most exciting young starting XI in world football.
That is exactly what the new radio show is offering, in fantasy form, over its 11 episodes. You can listen to the first three episodes now.
Steve Crossman will be joined by experts to discuss the latest inclusion, with one new player revealed each week.
Ryan Gravenberch is the third person to make the cut, joining new Manchester City forward and Bayer Leverkusen wingers.
Gravenberch has played for both the senior Netherlands team and the club team at a young age.
He was the youngest player in 33 years to score in a Dutch Cup final when he did it last season.
The record for the youngest player to play in the Eredivisie was set in 1992 by Clarence Seedorf.
The brother of ex-Reading striker Danzell Gravenberch, Ryan has been compared to compatriots Frank Rijkaard and Frenkie de Jong - and called a "better version of Paul Pogba".
He is being linked with a move to try and lure him from the other side of the world.
The journalist van der Kraan is from the Telegraaf.
If you look at his father, he is 6ft 5in, a giant of a guy. That is where the height came from. Ryan has an athlete.
It is possible that this is the reason he stood out so early and why he was picked up by the academy. He could easily be three or four years older than he is. This kid was only 12 years old when people started to find out. He was thought to be a world beater.
It happens to almost every kid who is tall. This is the new Frank Rijkaard. He is the ideal player to follow in the footsteps of Rijkaard, but that is a huge expectation and it is almost too big for him. Nobody can be the next Rijkaard.
He is a great kid. When he made his debut, I couldn't believe my eyes. He is handling it well so far.
He was given a place in the starting line-up for the first game of last season's group stages, when he played againstLiverpool at the Amsterdam Arena. He handled it as if it was a normal occurrence and that it was his playground.
Ajax managerErik ten Hag loves players like Gravenberch, a player who can make that team tick.
I think it will be 40% that he will stay this summer. I think he would be a good fit for Barcelona because he would be able to play the tiki-taka style.
Juan Kaluf from We Talk Ajax:
His physical presence is what makes him special. He has played a lot of matches, he knows how to drive the ball forward and play in tight spaces, and he is very fast considering how big he is.
It makes us very proud to see him in the academy. The style of play, his role in the team, but not exactly the same, remind us of Frenkie de Jong. He sits deep and drives the ball.
