Football Manager 2017: 20 Free Agents You Must Sign

Age: 38

Position: ST

The former Udinese man was a goal machine in the Italian league for a long time, scoring almost 1 in 2 for the side he left this summer. And while investing anything in a 38-year-old might seem like a poor idea in the long-term, Di Natale is not that type of option, but he will have some immediate impact if you chance signing him.

Potential Value: £50k

There's absolutely no chance you'll get any onward value from the Italian, but if you're taking over a newly promoted Premier League side, Di Natale will actually score you some precious goals. In every sim I ran, he scored 1 in 2 or more, despite being as old as time, and pulled in ratings between 6.6 and 6.9.

Don't expect to play him a lot and he will reward you, particularly if you set up your team to be more mobile around him as a focal point. His instincts, it seems, don't dull very quickly.
