Football Manager 2017 Fantasy Draft: 24 Essential Bargains You Must Sign

15. Eder Alvarez Balanta

Fantasy Draft Fm 2017
SI Games

Price: £9m

Position: DC/DL

Another familiar name, Balanta is one of the most valuable wonderkids of the past two or three years in Football Manager circles. Unfortunately he's now moved on to Europe, which means you can no longer pick him up for a tiny fraction of his true value in the full game.

Luckily though, his lack of experience in Europe seems to have limited his overall value, meaning he's available for just £9m in Fantasy Draft. And for that, you get incredibly good stats and a defender who will slot into your first team immediately. He'll also score you some headers if you set your team up to find him from set-pieces.
