This time on the table – the best free agents football manager 2019 edition!
After each season a lot of players finish their contracts in their clubs. Some of them just want to get a better salary, some of them argue with their bosses but after their contract ends we can buy them without a fee. That is the most important thing, of course.
We have to admit that in this FM19 there were a lot of great players without a contract and it was not easy to choose the best of them. We set some rules, scales and some things we think are the most important and we got a new – best free agents football manager 2019 list for you.
Best Free Agents Football Manager 2019 List by FMB
In the beginning, we just want to mention that we prefer younger players that can develop a lot. This time we couldn`t get what we want, because this is not an FM19 wonderkids list. So, you will have to satisfy yourselves with these players. You don`t have to, actually, but their quality will make you satisfied.
FMBrotherhood Best Free Agents Football Manager 2019 List:
Giuseppe Rossi – Giuseppe is a striker that knows a lot of things with the ball. He has nice technical skills, maybe Rossi isn`t as fast as Bolt, but he also isn`t a slow striker. Rossi is very composed in front of the opponent goal and with finishing 15 he will score a lot of goals. He is that type of a player that isn`t a superstar but he does what is maybe the most important thing in football – scores a lot of goals. So get Rossi and you won`t regret, he absolutely deserves to be on our best free agents fm19 list!
Gianluca Gaudino – we said we there won`t be so many young players, but this one surely is young and quality CM. Gaudino is sophisticated CM with great first touch, nice movement on the pitch and high level of technique. He is a true trainee of the German football school. As he is a team player, he won`t get on your nerves and lose the ball too often. Great player for passing tactics and one of the best free agents in Football Manager 2019.
Jeremy Toulalan – You probably already know about Toulalan and about his rich CV. We won`t spend too many words on him. Strong, great tackler, brave and experienced stopper you always need in your team.
Robert Huth – Yes, we know, another central defender is on the list, and you want attackers… We couldn`t avoid Huth as he is one of the best free agents in FM19. Similar to Toulalan, but much stronger in duels, playing even better with his head than Jeremy. Huth is a great addition to your team, as you will spend 0$ to sign him.
Ionut Rus – GK you need to get in this game. He is young, only 18 years old, so he can develop a lot. This youngster is great potential and if you train him properly he can be your first GK soon.
Eugen Polanski – Polish DM that also can play on CM. He is experienced, 32 years old and can be useful as the anchor man in your squad. He is a team player that knows how to mark, tackle, a brave player with great positioning. If you need more from your DM then you are spoiled. Also, you don`t have to pay anything for him except his salary. Whata catch, ha?
Victor Anichebe – this 30 years old winger or target man is perfect for our best free agents football manager 2019 list. If you need a tough guy, Hulk (the green one) then you are at the right place. Victor is strong as a rock, he has nice finishing and first touch but also knows how to shoot using his head. We really can`t say that he is missing anything as a player, maybe long shots aren`t his strongest weapon.
Best free agents football manager 2019 list BONUS:

Best FM 2019 Free Agents – Players Without Contract
Hi, and welcome to the FMS best FM 2019 free agents or players out of contract as they are called too. If you ran out of cash but you still need to sign some cover for your squad, this best FM 2019 free agents list will help you. It gathers players to play mainly at Premiership and Championship level, probably no one will make it to the first eleven of a top flight team, but as a back up, yes.
Criteria Used
The criteria used to choose the best FM 2019 free players for this FMS list, was to select all the players out of contract, on a free transfer, with 120 or more, of current ability value. Some might be quite elder and their current ability could start dropping fast, but there are some true gems like Samir Nasri, aged 31.
Best FM 2019 Free Agents List
On the list you will see the Nation of birth column, here you can check if the player may have a double nationality that could give him a European passport.
On the right side, you can see the prefered roles from the players.
Ratings:
Samir Nasri – The Best
We think ex French wonderkid and ex Man City, Samir Nasri, is the best FM 2019 free player available this season. He is an attacking midfielder with decent physical attributes, good acceleration but lacking stamina.
He is unpredictable, very creative, with amazing vision, flair, anticipation and off the ball movement, all paired with great mental attributes in the composure and determination departments.
His technical attributes are his stronger side, being an attacking midfielder, he hot amazing skills when passing the ball, first touch, technique, dribbling. He can also finish and take decent free kicks and corners.
He can place shots, comes deep to get the ball, tries to play way out of trouble, and likes to cut in from both wings.
The media recognizes for his fairly determined personality.
Nasri Contract:
I asked to sign Nasri from Barcelona, and he was asking for peanuts. One and a half million pounds(1.5 M GBP) for the yearly wage plus 157K on fees for his agent and himself together! What a bargain!
But I guess that if you try to sign him with Sunderland, Leeds, Getafe or Aston Villa he will ask for quite more cash.

Samir Nasri (CA 145 – PA 151)
Positions: AM (LRC), M (RL)
Best stats: 17 flair, 17 first touch, 16 passing
Samir Nasri is currently without a club after being stung with a doping ban for using an illegal drip treatment. This suspension is included on Football Manager 2019, meaning the former Manchester City and Arsenal midfielder is not eligible to play until January. A move for him before then could be blocked by your club’s board.
The 30-year-old Nasri has stats of 17 flair, 17 first touch and 16 passing to take his CA to 145, which is not far off his 151 potential.
Benoit Tremoulinas (CA 136 – PA 148)
Positions: D (L), WB (L)
Best stats: 16 crossing, 16 natural fitness, 16 teamwork
Benoit Tremoulinas has been a free agent after leaving Sevilla in 2017, but a meniscus injury has stopped him from returning to the professional scene. The left back won the Europa League in both the seasons he was in Seville, having also secured league titles in both France and Ukraine with Bordeaux and Dynamo Kyiv, respectively.
On FM, Tremoulinas has stats of 16 crossing, 16 natural fitness and 16 teamwork to take him to a 136 CA, which has fallen from a 148 potential.
Dimitar Berbatov (CA 134 – PA 173)
Best stats: 20 first touch, 18 penalty taking, 18 composure
Dimitar Berbatov will be remembered fondly by Tottenham and Manchester United, with the Bulgarian striker netting 75 Premier League goals across both clubs. After spells at Fulham, Monaco, PAOK and Kerala Blasters, and now 37, is there enough time for one last move for the forward?
20 first touch, 18 penalty taking and 18 composure add to Berbatov’s 134 CA which has fallen someway from his 173 potential.
Miguel Veloso (CA 132 – PA 148)
Best stats: 17 pressure, 16 passing, 16 professionalism
Miguel Veloso was a regular in Portugal’s midfield for some time, earning 56 caps for his country between 2007 and 2015. The defensive midfielder won two domestic cups with Sporting Lisbon, then headed to first Genoa and then Dynamo Kyiv, but has been a free agent since the summer.
A 132 CA has fallen from a 148 potential, but Veloso still has 17 pressure, 16 passing and 16 professionalism to his game.
Javi Varas (CA 130 – PA 138)
Best stats: 16 concentration, 15 anticipation, 14 positioning
A player you may not be aware of is Spanish goalkeeper Javi Varas. The 35-year-old has over 150 La Liga appearances to his name, after spells at Sevilla, Celta Vigo and Las Palmas. He left second tier club Granada last season and is yet to sign for a new team.
16 concentration, 15 anticipation and 14 positioning take Varas to a 130 CA, which hasn’t fallen much from his 138 potential.
Diego Cavalieri (CA 130 – PA 154)
Best stats: 16 bravery, 16 natural fitness, 15 determination
A former Brazilian international, Diego Cavalieri signed for Crystal Palace last season, but never made an appearance for the club before his release. Before then, the 34-year-old made over 200 appearances for Fluminense in his homeland, and did serve as an understudy to Pepe Reina at Liverpool between 2008 and 2010.
On FM, a 130 CA has fallen from a 154 potential for Cavalieri, but he still holds abilities of 16 bravery, 16 natural fitness and 15 determination.
Obafemi Martins (CA 130 – PA 152)
Best stats: 15 determination, 15 flair, 15 agility
Still going aged 33, Obafemi Martins in real life is contracted to Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League, but a torn hamstring looks to have ended his time in China, perhaps why he is a free agent on FM 19. The Nigerian striker enjoyed successful spells at Inter Milan and Newcastle early in his career and earned 42 caps for his country.
15 determination, 15 flair and 15 agility for Martins take him to a 130 CA, which has fallen from a 152 potential.
Dario Conca (CA 129 – PA 157)
Best stats: 19 temperament, 17 determination, 17 flair
Attacking midfielder Dario Conca has also had a spell in the Chinese Super League, but the 35-year-old has been without a club since a brief loan spell at Flamengo in 2017. The Argentine performed well in China, scoring 54 goals and adding 37 assists in 99 games for Guangzhou Evergrande.
A 129 current ability rating for Conca can improve to a PA of 157, with his best stats being 19 temperament, 17 determination and 17 flair.
Serdar Tasci (CA 129 – PA 146)
Best stats: 17 professionalism, 16 composure, 16 natural fitness
Serdar Tasci was solid at the back for Stuttgart for seven years, making over 240 appearances for the club, and winning a remarkable Bundesliga title in 2007. Despite making 15 caps for Germany, the 31-year-old never made the step up to the top level, eventually signing for Spartak Moscow in 2013 and has been a free agent since the summer.
Centre back Tasci has stats of 17 professionalism, 16 composure and 16 natural fitness on FM, which take him to a 129 CA, now someway off his 146 potential.
Eliseu (CA 129 – PA 141)
Positions: D (L), WB (L)
Best stats: 15 determination, 15 bravery, 15 aggression
A Portuguese international as recent as 2017, Eliseu had a successful spell at Benfica, winning three league titles. The left back was also part of Portugal’s Euro 2016 winning side, but has been a free agent since leaving Benfica at the end of last season.
15 determination, 15 bravery and 15 aggression take Eliseu to a 129 CA on the game, rising to a potential of 141.

If you’re on the hunt for a bargain in the new game, fear not, Goal has you covered with some of the best free agents available
While the game’s engineers have been meticulously delving into the minutiae of football management to make it a much more immersive experience, the simple mechanics of transfers can be the most enjoyable part.
Indeed, when dipping into the transfer market in search of reinforcements, finding a bargain or, better yet, a top class free agent is one of the most satisfying aspects of the game.
Editors’ Picks
At the beginning of the latest edition of the Sports Interactive management simulation, a host of quality players can be acquired without forking over a transfer fee, which makes them particularly attractive targets for cash-strapped clubs.
Generally speaking, the players who tend to be without a contract are those at the end of their careers, but occasionally you will find a star who is still in his prime.
Lots of factors come into play when attempting to lure a free agent to your club, such as wage demands and club reputation, so it must be noted that they won’t all be easily snapped up.
To help you get started on your new managerial odyssey, Goal takes a look at some of the best free agents to sign in Football Manager 2019.
Football Manager 2019 free agent goalkeepers
The standard of free agent goalkeepers available at the beginning of the new game is not really sufficient if you are managing at the highest level, but a number of players could fit in at Championship level or lower.
Age can be a concern for players in outfield positions, but it is common to see goalkeepers ply their trade well into their late 30s and sometimes their 40s.
Diego Cavalieri is a former Brazil international who was last on the books of Middlesbrough and he is probably the pick of the goalkeepers who can be picked up for free.
| Player | Age | Nationality | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diego Cavalieri | 35 | Brazil | GK |
| Marco Storari | 41 | Italy | GK |
| Oscar Ustari | 31 | Argentina | GK |
| Vincent Enyeama | 35 | Nigeria | GK |
| Javi Varas | 35 | Spain | GK |
| Cedric Carrasso | 36 | France | GK |
Other top-level international goalkeepers who can be signed for nothing are 31-year-old Oscar Ustari, who has represented Argentina, and former Lille shotstopper Vincent Enyeama.
If you’re concerned about falling foul of work permit regulations, there are a number of European options too, including former Sevilla star Javi Varas and ex-Bordeaux number one Cedric Carrasso.
Football Manager 2019 free agent defenders
There is an interesting array of talent available on free transfer when it comes to defenders and, while the age profile tends towards the older end of the spectrum, there are a few who players who are in their 20s.
A host of senior internationals can potentially be signed, with the likes of Germany’s Serdar Tasci, Cameroon’s Sebastien Bassong and England’s Glen Johnson looking for a new club.
If you’d like to get a true veteran into your ranks you could always try your hand at persuading former Inter and Argentina centre-back Nicolas Burdisso to join your project, or perhaps former Manchester United star Patrice Evra. Both players are approaching 40, so their physicality has decreased considerably, but their intelligence and skill set remains strong.
| Player | Age | Nationality | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Serdar Tasci | 31 | Germany | DC |
| Nicolas Burdisso | 37 | Argentina | DC |
| James Collins | 34 | Wales | DC |
| Robert Huth | 33 | Germany | DC |
| Joleon Lescott | 35 | England | DC |
| Christopher Samba | 34 | Congo | DC |
| Sebastien Bassong | 31 | Cameroon | DC |
| Florentin Pogba | 27 | Guinea | DLC |
| Russell Martin | 32 | Scotland | DRC |
| Chris Baird | 36 | Northern Ireland | DRC/DM |
| Sebastian Boenisch | 31 | Poland | DRLC |
| Benoit Tremoulinas | 32 | France | D/WBL |
| Patrice Evra | 37 | France | D/WBL |
| Benoit Assou-Ekotto | 34 | Cameroon | D/WBL |
| Eliseu | 34 | Portugal | D/WBL |
| Glen Johnson | 33 | England | D/WBR |
| Dennis Diekmeier | 28 | Germany | D/WB/AMR |
The likes of Joleon Lescott, Chris Baird, Robert Huth and James Collins may not be household names, but they all have years of Premier League experience under their belts, which is valuable.
Football Manager 2019 free agent midfielders
Former Arsenal and Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri was once considered one of the best midfielders in Europe, so it is a surprise to see him among the free agents in Football Manager 2019.
Another fascinating name on the list of free agent midfielders in Football Manager 2019 is Portugal international Miguel Veloso, who counts Sporting Lisbon, Dynamo Kiev and Genoa among his former clubs.
The defensive midfielder has appeared at two World Cups and two European Championships and, given his age, could probably still be relied upon to do a job for a top level club.
| Player | Age | Nationality | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Samir Nasri | 31 | France | AMRLC |
| Mbark Boussoufa | 33 | Morocco | AMRLC |
| Ederson | 32 | Brazil | AMRLC |

| Pablo Batalla | 34 | Argentina | AMC |
| Alberto Aquilani | 33 | Italy | CM |
| Didier Ndong | 24 | Gabon | MRC |
| Eugen Polanski | 32 | Poland | DM |
| Jan Kirchoff | 27 | Germany | DC/DM |

| Denilson | 30 | Brazil | DM |
| Miguel Veloso | 32 | Portugal | DM |
| Mathieu Flamini | 34 | France | DM |
| Michael Essien | 35 | Ghana | DM |
Fans of Arsenal might be tempted to bring old team-mates together, with the likes of Mathieu Flamini, Denilson and Abou Diaby joining Nasri among the former Gunners who are out of contract in the game.
Other blasts from the past include former Chelsea enforcer Michael Essien and ex-France international Jeremy Toulalan.
Football Manager 2019 free agent strikers
If you’re looking for a bit of experience up front and can’t afford (or don’t want) to pay, Football Manager 2019 has a number of nostalgia-evoking options.
Former Manchester United and Tottenham hero Dimitar Berbatov is available on a free and, amazingly, he still has rating of 20 for his first touch.
Despite his advancing years, Berbatov’s finishing, technique and penalty-taking attributes are all still quite strong, so he could certainly do a job for a season at least.
| Player | Age | Nationality | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emmanuel Emenike | 31 | Nigeria | ST |
| Robbie Keane | 37 | Republic of Ireland | ST |
| Giuseppe Rossi | 31 | Italy | ST |
| Kenwyne Jones | 33 | Trindidad & Tobago | ST |
| Nilmar | 33 | Brazil | ST |
| Diego Forlan | 39 | Uruguay | ST/AMC |
| Dimitar Berbatov | 37 | Bulgaria | FW/AMC |
| Victor Anichebe | 30 | Nigeria | AML/ST |
Spurs fans will be delighted to learn that a potential reunion with Robbie Keane is actually possible too, with the Republic of Ireland’s record goalscorer also out of contract following his stint in India with ATK.
Other free agent strikers include Giuseppe Rossi, but a thorough scouting may be preferable before making a move for the injury-plagued Italian.
