| Manuel Neuer | 37 | GK | 88 | 88 |

Kylian Mbappe
This is the big one. French striker Kylian Mbappe’s contract stand-off with PSG has been all over the news, but can you secure his signature next season? Chances are he will sign an extension with PSG in the game, but if the opportunity to sign him for free arises, you must do everything in your power to bring him to your club.
Manuel Neuer
Veteran German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer could retire after one season in FC 24 Career Mode. However, if he doesn’t, he could provide an excellent short-term solution to any team in need of a world class keeper. This is one to keep an eye out for.
Dani Parejo
Midfield maestro Dani Parejo will be among the best passers in FC 24. Parejo has never been the most mobile midfielder, but his technical ability is incredible. Adding him to your side for free could be a stroke of genius, and he can play a Pirlo-esque role in dictating the game.
Thomas Muller
A second Bayern Munich player on this list, Thomas Muller can add goals and assists to any team. Muller’s pace is on the decline, however his positioning and finishing attributes are still top drawer. As long as he has some more mobile players around him, Muller can thrive.
Thiago
At just 32, Thiago still has plenty to offer. The Spanish technician will be 33 years old when the opportunity to sign him arrives. If you are in need of a playmaker, Thiago could be a cheap, quick-fix option for any club competing at the top end of the league table.
How to sign players on pre-contract agreements?
Signing players for free in FIFA Career Mode has been very easy in recent seasons. Obviously you can look to the free agents to add players to your team for nothing, but there are often better players available to sign on pre-contract agreements.
If a player’s contract has six months or less, and they are aged 23 or over, you can offer them a contract for the upcoming season. They will then join your squad for the beginning of the new season without a transfer fee.
You can send your scouts to search for players whose contract is running out. In the scout instructions, limit the contract length to a maximum of one year, and their age to a minimum of 23 to ensure they are available to sign for free.
