Wingers can be extremely destructive and influential from an early age. The likes of Neymar, Ousmane Dembele, and Thomas Lemar have torn defences apart at the start of their career and made big money moves because of their talents. Not every team can afford to wait and see who develops and then splash the cash to sign them though. Most need to take the leap beforehand and develop their own star wingers.
How to choose the best cheap high potential left wingers (LWs) and midfielders (LMs) in FIFA 19 Career Mode
Here we are looking at the best cheap high potential left wingers (LWs) and left midfielders (LMs) in FIFA 19's career mode. These are players with the potential to hit at least 80 overall and can be signed for less that £5 million, making them available for nearly every team without breaking the bank. These are players you can develop into high class left-sided players.
