Club: Atletico Madrid
Value: £18.5 - 24 million
Wage: £66,000 a week
One of the best and brightest young left backs in Football Manager 2022, Renan Lodi is a quick, tenacious full back who could become a star for your team.
With Atletico Madrid in need of some cash, bringing Lodi into your team could be could a win-win for everyone.
Moussa Dembele

Club: Lyon
Value: £11 - 19 million
Wage: £52,000 a week
A striker that oozes class, Moussa Dembele is available for a bargain price at the beginning of Football Manager 2022.
A clinical finisher who has proven himself in Europe's top leagues, we think capturing this star for less than £20 million could be the bargain of the century.
Isco

Club: Real Madrid
Value: £16 million
Wage: £210,000 a week
Once considered one of the best attacking midfielders in world football, Isco is available for a super cheap price in this year's game.
A graceful player with an eye for a deadly pass, could you bring Isco to your club and help him reach his full potential?
Adrien Rabiot

Club: Zebre
Value: £17 - 21 million
Wage: £175,000 a week
His wages may be high, but the statistical make-up of Adrien Rabiot certainly warrants spending the big pennies.
A physical midfielder capable of controlling the midfield, Rabiot could be the perfect focal point for your team in Football Manager 2022.
Adnan Januzaj

Club: Real San Sebastian
Value: £11 - 17.5 million
Wage: £73,000 a week
When Adnan Januzaj burst onto the scene under David Moyes at Manchester United, major things were expected of the Belgian.
Whilst his career has tailed off slightly, he is still a very capable player who would be well worth the small fee required to bring him to your club.
Cesar Azpilicueta

Club: Chelsea
Value: £12 - 18 million
Wage: £150,000 a week
Cesar Azpilicueta is a leader and a winner, which makes it all the more baffling that you could snap him up for roughly £15 million in FM22.
Whilst he may be 31, this small investment could lead to at least two years of solidity and leadership as you look to reach the next level.
Kepa Arrizabalga

Club: Chelsea
Value: £13 - 19.5 million
Wage: £145,000 a week
Another Chelsea star with a low valuation, Kepa Arreizabalaga was once worth £70 million.
After a few howlers and a cup final confrontation with Sarri, the Spaniard's found himself on the bench and now could be the perfect time for you to offer him a move away from Stamford Bridge.
Jesus Corona

Club: FC Porto
Value: £14.5 - 18.5 million
Wage: £30,500 a week
A consistent star for Porto in the past few years, Jesus Corona is a dangerous offensive player who could become a major player for your team in FM22.
Whilst he may not be the fastest, this Mexican attacker will bring technical flair and dribbling excellence to your team.
Marcao

Club: Galatasary
Value: £11 - 17 million
Wage: £24,500 a week
Solid defenders don't usually come cheap, but Marcao is a player that fits that criteria.
A dominant force who is strong and composed, this Brazilian centre half could be the perfect defender to add some grit to your team.
Leandro Paredes

Club: PSG
Value: £16 - 25 million
Wage: £150,000 a week
Capped multiple times by Argentina and currently occupying a spot on the PSG bench, Leandro Paredes is probably due a move away to gain regular football.
If you opt to make the small investment, you'll be signing one of the most rounded players in FM22, and who can turn down that offer?
