The order of players is also randomised and each player could be used differently based on what you require. The current and potential abilities may vary slightly depending on the save.
1. Joao Pedro
Current Ability- 126
Potential Ability- 149
The young Fluminense forward has very well rounded stats and is a versatile striker who can operate in multiple roles. He has all the attributes to become a very accomplished striker for most sides and is available for under £3m. If you are managing a medium sized club and you want a striker for the future, Joao Pedro is your guy.
2. Wayne Rooney
Current Ability- 138
Potential Ability- 160
This man needs no introduction; one of the best strikers England has ever produced is still a very good player in the game. His physical stats may have taken a hit but his mental and technical stats are still amongst the elite. A natural leader on and off the pitch, Wayne Rooney can also act as one of the best mentors for your younger players. Considering you get all of this for under £3m, this is definitely one of the best bargain buys for most medium sized clubs.
3. Sandro
Current Ability- 126
Potential Ability- 157
The 30 year old defensive midfielder has some of the best mental stats in game and could offer 2-3 excellent seasons for most mid-sized clubs. His experience of playing for the best clubs is invaluable and he will be a rock in central/defensive midfield.
4. Miguel Veloso
Current Ability- 128
Potential Ability- 157
At 33, Veloso may well be past his prime but that does not mean he is a bad player in game. He has very well rounded stats and has invaluable experience to offer for some of the younger players in game. His physical stats have still not declined too much and he will definitely prove as a stop gap solution to any midfield problems for a couple of seasons.
5. Wuilker Farinez
Current Ability- 136
Potential Ability- 147
The Venezuelan international may not be a well-known name in the footballing world but is one of the best goalkeepers in this price range. He is especially adept in pulling off reflex saves and still has a lot of potential to become much better. Under the right guidance, Farinez could become one of the best players for most mid sized clubs.
6. Hany Mukhtar
Current Ability- 131
Potential Ability- 150
One glance at the stats will tell you that 3m is definitely a bargain for this attacking midfielder. Hany Mukhtar has exceptional passing and vision combined with top class technique. As he is just 24, he could develop further and could easily be the best player for any mid sized club.
7. Jonathan Dos Santos
Current Ability- 140
Potential Ability- 148
The experienced Mexican international has already played in the best leagues and has had several successful seasons at many top tier clubs. Jonathan Dos Santos has exceptional work rate and stamina which ensures that he covers every blade of grass on the pitch. He is also a very able set piece taker and he is a corner specialist. He could be an invaluable signing for most mid sized clubs.
Some players in the list may already be established internationals while others maybe upcoming stars but it is hard to deny that for price of £3m or lesser they are absolute bargains in the game and will help your side achieve the goals. They are also attainable targets for medium clubs and will not reject the opportunity to join you.
