Tips to obtain talents at a low price in the career
Before you buy expensive players and talents in the career, consider these tips to invest as little money as possible:
- Even if everyone wants top players in their team – few can afford a Ronaldo or Messi. Especially not at the beginning of the career.
- That’s why it’s essential to invest in talents at low prices at the start of the career, whom you can then train and either keep or sell at a high price.
- Look for talents that have a base rating below 80. It’s best to choose young players with ratings in the 60s that show high potential, like Christian Früchtl. They are significantly cheaper than top talents that already start with a high rating.
- Look for talents that are not already in a top club. Because many top clubs are reluctant to let their young players with high potential go and expect a high transfer fee for them.
Keep in mind that the potential of talents is not guaranteed. You need to train them and give them playing time, otherwise, they will not reach their potential.
