Sporting Lissabon has just bid 3.6M Euro for one of my starting players Diogo and my chairman deemed it necessary to accept - it wasn't such a bad thing, since I bought him for only 400k Euro a year ago and his value has risen to 1.2M in the meantime. Now that he's thinking over his (most likely significantly better) contract from Sporting, I''m in desperate need to fill this hole in the MC position and I'm looking towards alternatives.

There's only one rub: I've just spent almost 5M for improved training and youth facilities and 17M for a new stadium which means I've got a loan to pay off. Cash is a bit short right now and those are the only replacements that I'm able to afford, in both transfer fees and wages:

Andrés Enríquez
Fernando Baiano
Júnior
Paul Pogba
Sergio

Which one would you pick? Personally, I'm thinking about Júnior, because I can get him for less than 1M Euro and his 5 star potential (whereas the others' potential is only 4 stars) makes him stand out and because of that he's also more attractive down the line and with a long-term contract.

edit: oh ****, I posted in the wrong forum. Sorry, can a mod move this please?

all depends on what role you want him for, a general purpose i would go Enriquez or Baiano but for a play maker I'd go Junior, depends which role your interested in :)
 
Thanks for your recommendations, guys. Diogo has played rather successfully in his position as a playmaker and despite his bad dribbling, he was one of only two guys who averaged a rating above 7 in a rather difficult season. So that's the player and duty I needed to replace.

In the end, I was forced to sign Andrés Enríquez, because he was the only one who fit into my wage budget while all others were looking for 30k+ per month. Although he wasn't my first choice, he played very well in the second half of the season, allowing me to climb back up towards reaching an Europa League qualification place.

Thanks again for your thoughts!
