Football Manager 2020: 10 Incredible Bargains Who're Guaranteed To Improve Your Squad
7. Toby Alderweireld - Tottenham
One of the most important parts of Tottenham's emergence as a top four Premier League team has been their defensive stability. At their very best, the North London club have managed to shut out even the most fierce attacks. One of the key components in their defence has been the consistency of Toby Alderweireld.
The Belgian international is an absolute rock at the centre of defence, with his key attributes reflecting that completely. His heading (16), tackling (16) and anticipation (15), make him one of the best defenders playing in the Premier League. He's also got specific player traits, such as "Tries Long Range Passes" and "Likes To Switch Ball To Other Flank", which makes him a perfect choice if your tactics require ball-playing defenders.
You'd think that with those sort of statistics, Alderweireld would cost a small fortune. However, you can buy one of the world's best centre backs for £25 million due to his release clause. If you're fighting for a trophy and you've got the funds, then he could be the difference between success and failure.
