Central midfielders (CM) are a vital cog to both the attack and
defence. Every team dreams of a powerhouse midfielder that can
produce at both ends of the pitch, run all day, and do the job of two
players at once. However, players like that don’t come cheap. The
likes of Paul Pogba have pushed the price tag higher and higher in
recent years. If you are a small team, you have no choice but to find a
gem before they become world class.
A full list of ALL the best cheap high potential central midfielders
(CMs) is available at the bottom of the page

Billy Gilmour moved to Chelsea in 2017 after spending time with the
Rangers youth system. He has made his way up to the Scotland U21
side already, winning 11 caps total and scoring three times.

Exequiel Palacios has been with River Plate for his whole career. He
made his senior debut in 2015, and has made 18 appearances for
River Plate since, scoring two goals. He has also won two caps for
Argentina.
Positions: CM
Club: La Spezia
Country: Italy
Giulio Maggiore has been with La Spezia for his whole career. He
debuted in 2016 and is a staple of the first team, making 57
appearances so far and scoring four times. He has progressed to
Italy’s under-20 side, making 11 appearances in total and scoring
once.
In FIFA 19, Maggiore has enough stamina (72) to play all day which is
very good for a player you want to develop. He’s a solid passer (70
short pass, 67 long pass) so he receives a 67 overall and an 83
potential.
Positions: CM
Club: Hearts
Country: Scotland
Harry Cochrane joined Hearts at U13 level and has been with them
ever since. He made his senior debut in 2017 and has appeared 23
times in the first team, scoring once. He’s represented Scotland at
every level up to under-17 but is yet to score for his national team.

Matteo Pessina started his career with Monza and played 22 times
for them, scoring six times, before moving to Milan. He spent two
years there out on loan and never played for the senior team before
moving to Atalanta in 2017. He spent the 2017-18 season on loan
with Spezia where he played 38 games and scored twice. He has also
made 6 appearances for the Italy under-21 side.
In FIFA 19 Pessina is already a solid passer (76 short pass, 70 long
pass) with enough stamina (74) to play well into a game. He has nice
pace (72 acceleration, 72 sprint speed) for a central player too, so
consider the £4 million price tag on him plus wages of £11,000 a
week.
