Football Manager 2022 Best Bargains: You won't have to break the bank in order to secure a superstar

Football Manager 2022 is finally here, which means it's time to jump and start assembling your squad.

If you're working within a tight budget or looking for multiple reinforcements, finding a bargain signing can really help your team out.

Discover some of the top bargain buys in FM22 that you can scoop up for a cut-price below.

Aaron Ramsey (CA 146 - PA 161)

Age: 30

Position: M (C), AM (CR)

Club: Zebre (Juventus)

Value: £9.2 million

Wage: £175,000 a week

Aaron Ramsey's career may have tailed off in recent times, but he's still a top player that could do a great job for your team.

Possessing a good balance of stats and entering his primitive years, we still think Ramsey could be a consistent starter in the Premier League.

Niklas Stark (CA 135 - PA 140)

Age: 26

Position: D (C), DM

Club: Hertha Berlin

Value: £5-6.6 million

Wage: £33,000 a week

A german dominator yet to reach his prime, Niklas Stark is available for dirt cheap in FM22.

The versatile defender can operate through the spine of your team and can easily lead you to success. You need to jump on this deal before another team beats you to it.

Jordan Lukaku (CA 119 - PA 138)

Age: 27

Position: D (L), WB (L), M (L)

Club: Lazio

Value: £650,000

Wage: £30,500 a week

Big Rom's brother will cost you a lot less than £100 million, but that doesn't necessarily mean he can't have as much impact.

A solid, quick, and agile full-back who can operate anywhere up the left flank, Jordan Lukaku could be the exact squad player your team needs in Football Manager 2022.

Marco Benassi (CA 130 - PA 142)

Age: 26

Position: M (C), AM (C)

Club: Fiorentina

Value: £3.4 million

Wage: £33,500 a week

We all love a midfield maestro, especially when that player is available for a bargain price.

With an excellent balance of stats, Marco Benassi could be the best pound for pound signing you make in this year's game.

Joelinton (CA 123 - PA 139)

Age: 24

Position: ST (C), AM (LC)

Club: Newcastle

Value: £5.6 million

Wage: £80,000 a week

Hear me out, but we think Joelinton could be a surprise star in this year's game. Whilst the Brazilian has been an obvious flop at Newcastle, we still think this cut-price deal is worth the risk.

With a good mix of stats, and the star being available for a fraction of the price Newcastle paid, could the Magpies loss become your gain?

Bruno Tabata (CA 134 - PA 144)

Age: 24

Position: AM (LCR)

Club: Sporting CP

Value: £5 million

Wage: £10,750 a week

Solid across the attacking positions and not making you break the bank, Bruno Tabata is an excellent option to sign in Football Manager 2022.

Whilst he may not be as good as another Bruno from Sporting, signing this dynamic winger could bring favourable results.

Charly Musonda (CA 117 - PA Range 130-160)

Age: 24

Position: AM (LCR)

Club: Chelsea

Value: £850,000

Wage: £40,000 a week

Once destined for big things, Charly Musonda's career never got off the ground at Stamford Bridge.

Now available for less than £1 million - and still at a young age - we believe investing in Musonda could be a great decision that sees this Belgian star quickly rise up the rankings.

Bouna Sarr (CA 130 - PA 140)

Age: 29

Position: D (R), WB (R), M (R), AM (R)

Club: Bayern Munich

Value: £2.2 million

Wage: £66,000 a week

Bouna Sarr is undoubtedly an underrated player, which should make it all the more enticing now that Bayern are looking to move the Frenchman on.

For the minuscule price of £2.2 million, you could capture a versatile defender who has bags of experience and nouse. Surely that's too good to turn down?

Tariqe Fosu (CA 121 - PA 128)

Age: 25

Position: AM (LCR)

Club: Brentford

Value: £2.4 million

Wage: £15,000 a week

Tariqe Fosu is a pacey winger with a dangerous cross and eye for goal.

Need I say more? Still only 25, the former Oxford man could easily break into a Championship side's first team and add the ingredients necessary to turn them into a Premier League club.

Ryan Fredericks (CA 129 - PA 138)

Age: 28

Position: D (R), WB (R), M (R), AM (R)

Club: West Ham

Value: £3 million

Wage: £40,000 a week

Signing Ryan Fredericks could be the best decision you make in Football Manager 2022, with the former Fulham right-back possessing a perfect balance for any team in the top flight.

Whether you need a consistent starter or you're looking for a backup player, we think Fredericks is the perfect bargain option on the market.
