Football Manager 2020: 10 Signings You Must Make Every Time
3. Jonathan Dos Santos - LA Galaxy
If you set out your team to have a defensive midfielder in the centre of your park, picking the right player can be an extremely difficult task. Buy the right one, and you could have the next Andrea Pirlo in your side, launching defense splitting passes from deep like a quarterback. However, if you sign the wrong one, then you could end up with a Granit Xhaka-esque midfielder who can't help but make a mistake.
LA Galaxy midfielder, Jonathan dos Santos, falls more into the Andrea Pirlo and would be a perfect addition to any mid-table team. When it comes to technical ability, then dos Santos ticks all the boxes needed for someone who is going to control the centre of park. The 29-year old Mexico international has brilliant stamina (17), work rate (16) and passing (16), which make him an exceptional addition to most midfields.
Despite his positives, at 29-years old, dos Santos is more of a stop-gap, rather than a purchase for the long-term. However, if managed properly, he could improve the fortunes of most middling clubs in leagues around the world.
