Football Manager 2022: 10 Attacking Midfielders You Must Sign

4. Naci Ünüvar

Football Manager 2022 Gaetano Castrovilli
SEGA

Club: Ajax

Nationality: Dutch

Price: £14 million

Much like on countless Football Manager releases and obviously in real life, Ajax have a plethora of ridiculously talented youngsters on their books on FM22.

Whilst Jurrien Timber, Devyne Rensch, Kenneth Taylor and Ryan Gravenberch are all phenomenal prospects who you should do your utmost to sign, when it comes to the more attacking midfield roles it's Naci Ünüvar whose star shines brightest at the Eredivisie club.

Technique, flair, dribbling and determination are Ünüvar's key starting stats, with that technique meaning he's able to vastly improve over coming seasons. In that regard, the main area that clearly needs addressing for this 18-year-old is his physical figures - with strength and stamina a particular concern.

Still, at £14 million, with bags of natural ability, and with the option to play him out on the left or as a CAM, this Ajax prospect absolutely deserves to be on the radar of any and all big clubs or those sides looking to get in amongst the elite of the beautiful game.
