The best left-backs to sign on Football Manager 2024

Top quality left-backs are a rare breed these days and that's why it's so important to make sure your Football Manager 2024 team is as strong as possible in the position.

If you've got a massive budget or a handful of pennies to work with, you can find a reliable option out there to take your team to the next level.

Here are 90min's picks for the best left-backs to sign on FM24 at any budget.

Cheap options

Jesus Gallardo
Monterrey

Gallardo is one of the best left-backs outside Europe and his expiring contract gives him an asking price of just £3.8m. That's a serious bargain.

Anthony Caci
Mainz 05

Caci is actually a centre-back but he's built perfectly for the left-back spot, where he can make the most of his 15 crossing. He's a smart buy at £6.5m.

Ulisses Garcia
Young Boys

Swiss international Garcia is available for just £3m. He's got 13s and 14s all over his stats page and looks like a really reliable option for a mid-table side.

Ricardo Rodriguez
Torino

Still only 30, Rodriguez is now a natural centre-back but he's still at home at out on the left. For £6m, he's a great experiment for the inverted full-back role.

Milton Valenzuela
Lugano

24-year-old Valenzuela is valued at just £900,000. While a move to a top side might be a stretch too far, the Argentine would be an excellent pick-up for a smaller outfit.

Wendell
FC Porto

You can pick Wendell up for £5.5m, which is a steal for a player of his quality. He's happy playing anywhere up the left side.

Reasonable options

Valentin Barco
Boca Juniors

Everyone's favourite new wonderkid, 18-year-old Barco is a really nice player right now but his potential will see him develop into a star. His £8m release clause is definitely worth triggering.

Marcos Alonso
Barcelona

The same £8m will get you Alonso, who is towards the other end of his career. If you want someone with experience, Alonso is your man.

Mathias Oliveira
Parthenope

There are some good deals to be had in Naples this year. Olivera is only 25 but is already a top player and good value for his £17.5m price tag.

Alberto Moreno
Villarreal

Moreno is a great signing. He's got 15 tackling and 14 passing, so you can play the £9.75m-rated man in any role you want.

Douglas Santos
Zenit St Petersburg

He was a great deal last year and Douglas is still excellent value at £11.75m. The 29-year-old is surprisingly well-suited for the inverted wing-back role.

Enzo Diaz
River Plate

Diaz is another player who may not have one stand-out stat, but he's very well-rounded and looks good for his £8.75m asking price.

Expensive options

Caio Henrique
AS Monaco

25-year-old Henrique is a really nice player whose selling point is his 16 crossing. You're getting a major threat from deep for £24m.

Juan Miranda
Real Hispalis

At 23, Miranda looks like he's going to go on and become a top left-back. His £19.5m price tag may be a little steep now but it'll undoubtedly prove worth it in just a few years.

David Hancko
Feyenoord

He's actually a centre-back but Hancko, 25, is another who looks really well-suited for a wider role. That versatility will set you back £18m.

Kyle Walker-Peters
Southampton

Speaking of versatility, Walker-Peters is a right-back but he's just as good on the left. His £19.5m asking price is a massive bargain after Southampton's relegation.

Lucas Digne
Aston Villa

At £40m, Digne is the most expensive player on this list. It's a high price tag but the Frenchman is a top option for this position, with his 16 crossing a major asset.
