Football Manager 2017: 25 Best Cheap Hidden Gems

7. Thalles

Thalles FM 2017
SI Games

Position: AM RL, ST

Age: 21

Club: Vasco da Gama

Approx. Cost: £2.8m

Another signing best suited to league without work permit restrictions, Thalles is a versatile frontline option. His highest attributes sit at 14, but he has almost no weaknesses, and is just as comfortable operating as an inside forward as he is playing through the middle.

He'll prove an excellent utility man for your mid-table side, and at 21 years old, his best years are still ahead of him.
