Paulo Dybala (AS Roma)
Paulo Dybala is a surprisingly cheap striker and attacking midfielder with a worldwide reputation and excellent technical attributes. The Argentinian World Cup winner has attribute ratings of 17 for dribbling, first touch, free-kicking taking, vision, long shots and passing. He also has exceptional technique, agility, flair, and balance, with ratings of 18-19 for those attributes.
Paulo Dybala
This 29-year-old player is undervalued at 8.2-12.5 million. His minimum fee release clause in Football Manager 2024 of 10.25 million for foreign clubs makes him an even bigger bargain. However, Dybala’s minimum release fee of 17.25 million for domestic (Italian) clubs is somewhat higher but still worth it.
David Garcia (Atlético Pamplona)
David Garcia is a very decent central defender with good defensive attribute ratings. This player is excellent in the air, with attribute ratings of 17 for heading and 16 for jumping reach. He’s a very determined defender with strong leadership qualities. David also has decent attribute ratings for positioning, marking, and tackling. His minimum fee release fee clause enables you to sign him for about 17.25 million, which matches his approximate valuation.

Bruno Petkovic (Dinamo Kiev)
Petkovic is a bargain of an attacking midfielder/striker with a minimum fee release clause in Football Manager 2024 that enables you to sign him for a mere 2.1 million. This is a player with high attribute ratings of 16-17 for strength, jumping reach, anticipation, penalty-taking, first touch, and technique. Bruno also has exceptional flair and is a fantastic team player. His best position is attacking midfield because his finishing and off-the-ball ratings aren’t that great for a striker.

Serhou Guirassy (VFB Stuttgart)
Serhou Guirassy is a great advanced and complete forward with a minimum fee release clause of 17.25 million. This fee is worth it for a 27-year-old player with a very good all-round game. Guirassy has an excellent finishing rating of 17. However, he also had good attribute ratings of 15 for pace, jumping reach, off-the-ball movement, anticipation, strength, determination, and heading. There aren’t many weaknesses in his game aside from poor defensive, corner, throws, and crossing attributes that are irrelevant for forwards.
