Mirko, ue4 by default doesn´t import animation,even though if you say its a skeletal mesh, It has to be chosen apart. You can also import animations by separate without need of importing the complete character. If it were a null or skin issue you should been adviced by the log viewer. Nicolas steps should work. Hope it helps!
