Everyone loves things for free, especially when Free is a top footballer from a major league in Europe. If you want to be like Juventus and build a fantastic squad made up of lots of free transfers (they have a midfield quartet made up of Sami Khedira, Emre Can, Aaron Ramsey and Adrien Rabiot, all from free transfers), this is surprisingly easy. Unlike real life, where free agents would impose huge signing fees instead of transfer money that would have gone to the club. Membership of players for a free transfer in Career mode in FIFA is relatively similar in terms of fees to a normal transfer, meaning you can pick up one of the best players in the world for free without paying the hefty fees.
Ramsey and Rabiot were both available for free last year and the offers are great this year. One club in particular offers a duo that would suit most of the best clubs in Europe. Not as many top players this year on their last contracts, but what's here is remarkable, with an eye on age as well so as not to burn out degeneration investments.
Note that these players at the time of publication all still have one contract under their belt and therefore may change based on game release or in subsequent fixes as time passes and new contracts are signed.
That said, here are the best players you can get on a free transfer in Season 1 (signed in January 2020 for use in Season 2) in Career mode on FIFA 20.
Gardien de but
David De Gea
David De Gea, one of the best goalkeepers in the world and arguably the best in the Premier League, has just signed a new contract with his club. It is therefore still available for free in January 2020, until it is fixed. if you use the initial squads option. Player-worthy reflexes and excellent positional awareness, De Gea will improve just about any team in the game that is not Man City, Liverpool or Bayern Munich as goalkeeper.
Expect him to command some of the biggest salaries for a goalie in the game.
Walter Benitez
Nice goalkeeper Walter Benitez may not be up to De Gea, but few goalkeepers are and his stats are still very good, especially with his reflexes. An option for a team perhaps at the bottom of the top leagues, Benitez is a solid option for the budget conscious.
Défenseurs
Toby Alderweireld
Toby Alderweireld, first of Spurs' two best players on this list, is a powerful defender who is still only 30 years old. It is rare in football to be a great defender with the ball up to the task and passing ability. If you're considering taking on a great team that doesn't have a truly imposing center-back with passing skills, like Manchester United or Arsenal, or need to replace an aging old center (Ramos or Pique), Toby is a go-to person. . will play admirably for any team.
Also versatile enough to play in the back if injury or fatigue hits your team in a head-to-head race. And if you prefer to have it all in pairs, Jan Vertongen will also be available for free.
Stefan Savic
Atletico Madrid seem to have an endless supply of fantastic crosses. Godin left this summer, but when you have Stefan Savic as your other option, who needs him? Seriously, Savic is a great FIFA defender and with his peak stats in almost every stat relevant for a center-back, he should be another great option if you need to beef up your defense.
Thomas Meunier
PSG Meunier right-back has been linked with a few teams this summer, mainly Premier League clubs. After his appearances, last season had been somewhat restricted. Meunier in FIFA 20 is a solid choice, especially for mid-table middleweight Premier League teams looking for some solidarity among their full backs. Also capable on the wing if you need to rest bigger guns.
Nathaniel Clyne
With the introduction of Trent Alexander-Arnold to the Liverpool squad, Natheniel Clyne, who was once considered the leading runner for England's full-back position, was found to be in excess of requirements from Anfield. Despite his relatively low stats overall, Clyne is a great choice for any mid-table team in Europe's top leagues. He has lost a meter of pace due to injuries, but all of his physical, defensive and offensive stats are still very solid. You know what you'll get with Clyne, and he'll be a good option to deploy either as a replacement or until you've got the right to get back into the youth squad, ready to take the plunge forward. permanently. team.
Milieu de terrain
Christian Eriksen
Spurs' second player Christian Eriksen, who has already confirmed to the press that he would like to qualify for a free transfer next season, will be available. A creative brain in the middle of the field, Eriksen would fit into almost any team around the world with his vision and success, while working tirelessly on the pitch. Better at the central striker position (CAM), he is also skilled in the heart of the midfield.
It's a crime that Spurs don't get anything for him, but their loss can be to your advantage. Take a picture of it and you will have one of the best in the world.
Mario Götze
Mario Götze has fallen out of favor in recent years. In 2013, after scoring the goal that won Germany's FIFA World Cup, Bayern Munich felt like they had become one of the best midfielders in the world. In 2019 he is back in Dortmund and his level of play has dropped relatively significantly.
Fortunately, this has not been translated so drastically in FIFA. Always excellent with the ball at his feet and possesses good agility, as well as vision and composure. His strength might hamper him in more physical leagues, but he's still a great option for those looking to get creative in midfield or a striker on the edge.
Timothée Chestnuts
Young player with a great future ahead of him, Belgian midfielder Timothy Castagne can play just about any position on the right side of the pitch. Good defensive stats if you need to get him in the back, and improved passes and crosses, coupled with a decent pace, mean he's solid on the wing too. As with all young players, you would invest in him for the future and with a potential FIFA 19 ranking of 83, and now a full Belgian international, Castagne is a great option to become a top player in this game. year.
Attack
Edinson Cavani
One of the few players in the football world to be linked with other clubs in almost every transfer case, Uruguayan leader Edinson Cavani has scored more than 20 goals per season for almost a decade. You can tell it's because he's the striker for the most dominant team in Ligue 1, but it still takes work. Also, while you would sign him at 33, Cavani is still a brilliant and powerful striker. Especially if you are a Premier League or La Liga mid-table player, he might be able to spend the money. a few years. Its statistics speak for themselves.
Dries Mertens
A player who is aging, but like many players in Italy who seem to improve over time (Antonio De Natalie is watching you), Belgian Napoli striker Dries Mertens is another great choice for those looking to secure a higher quality at a lower expected price. because of his age. Always lit, dribbling, and four-star skills, Dries could be the key to unleashing your offensive potential.
Jarrod Bowen
22-year-old winger Jarrod Bowen is also having a great 2018/19 season. Playing for Hull City in the English league, he has scored 22 goals in 46 appearances. There was talk of a Premier League transfer this summer. Unfortunately that didn't materialize, but with his contract next year, it's a great opportunity to find a quality young player whose potential will have increased last year, around 83 years old.
Quite pacy and good on the ball, he will improve exponentially as he plays more.
Callum Hudson-Odoi
Callum Hudson-Odoi, another talented winger who was already an England international, will have been crippled by his Achilles injury last season which kept him out of the club for months. However, with a potential rating of 85 last year, his stock will still be insanely high, and since he still hasn't signed a new contract, grab a free spot in January and watch him grow into a superstar. Fast with nimble feet, he should become the next best thing England have for Raheem Sterling and Jaydon Sancho.
