Football Manager 2017: 25 Best Cheap Hidden Gems

2. Gonzalo Martinez

Position: AM LC

Age: 23

Club: River Plate

Approx. Cost: £2.6.m

You just can't argue with Gonzalo Martinez's base statistics. His acceleration, pace, flair, technique, dribbling, and crossing all start above 15, and while he's a comfortable attacking midfielder, these attributes make him a perfect left winger.

Martinez also comes with the nice bonus of being an excellent set piece taker, and while he won't displace an Eden Hazard or Alexis Sanchez, he's a great squad player for any top six side, and a guarnateed starter for anyone else.
