Football Manager 2016: 20 Defensive Midfielders You Need To Sign

1. Ruben Neves

Ruben Neves is actually very similar to Thiago Maia, though he comes without the risk of a work permit and has already tasted plenty of first team action at a top European team. The 18-year-old will set you back a decent amount, but there's every chance that Neves could turn into the best midfielder on the game without any exaggeration. He has all of the ingredients to be a star, and proved he could be one on Football Manager 2015. Their scouts clearly like him, and in the real world, it seems to be only a matter of time before Neves lands at an enormous club. The simple fact of the matter is: Yes, you will have to fork out a larger sum for him, but you will not regret the decision for a second once his growth accelerates.
