Football Manager 2018: 25 Free Agents You Must Sign
20. Patrick Ebert
Age: 30
Position: MRL/AMRL
Even if he wasn't free, Patrick Ebert's versatility across midfield would make him a good option for anyone looking to boost their squad depth. And the fact that he's both only 30 and comes without a cost make him an even better bargain.
The German hasn't been a prolific scorer in his real life career (with 29 goals in 259 appearances), but he's a hard-worker, has midfield stats around the 13 mark (and up) and he's something of a set piece specialist (at least comparatively next to his other stats - with a 15). Definitely a strong bench option, and one who you'll face competition for.
