Football Manager 2016: 15 Free Agents You Must Sign

11. Khalid Boulahrouz

Former Club: Feyenoord Wage Demands: 11.75k (per week) Age: 33 Position: Defender (centre) Khalid Boulahrouz is no spring chicken but at 33-years-old he still represents a viable option for any top first division side needing a backup centre half or a lesser side needing a genuine leader to steer them clear of relegation. The experienced defender has a wealth of footballing experience and has made over 200 appearances in the Bundesliga and Eredivisie. He is probably more suited to one of those leagues after underperforming during his time at Chelsea in 2007. His still has excellent defensive attributes and his physical ratings are still worthwhile taking a chance on (especially for 11.75k per week).
