Football Manager 2017: 20 Essential Signings You Should Always Make

1. Paulo Dybala

Paulo Dybala FM 2017
SI Games

Age: 22

Club: Juventus

Position: ST (C)

Approx. Cost: £44.5m

At 22 years old, Paulo Dybala is already one of the best forwards in the game. His technical stats are excellent across the board, and he's a well-balanced player who's just as capable of creating chances for others as he is finishing his own. Furthermore, he's the only young forward capable of reaching Messi/Ronaldo status at the beginning of the game.

Sure, Dybala will cost you an arm and a leg, but you'll be paying for a future Ballon d'Or winner. He's a talent your can't afford to miss out on, and if you're going to blow your whole budget on a single player, it should be Dybala.
