To help you make the right squad selections, following our analysis of budget defenders and forwards, here are 3 recommended low-cost midfielders.
Kokçu (33 credits)
Assists in the initial matches against Boca Juniors and Auckland City, and a solid performance in Benfica`s win over Bayern Munich. These are the encouraging stats for Kokçu, who scored 7 goals and provided 7 assists in 34 appearances last season. Although he hasn`t scored yet in this Club World Cup, the Turkish midfielder could potentially score in the Round of 16 match against Chelsea. With a cost of just 33 credits, he`s definitely worth considering for your fantasy squad.
Gross (23 credits)
After a difficult start against Fluminense (rated 5), Pascal Gross has shown improvement, earning two 6.5 ratings in subsequent matches against Mamelodi and Ulsan. He`s been productive this season with 14 assists and one goal. Priced at 23 credits in the Fantasy Club World Cup, he`s recommended for the Round of 16 match against Monterrey. He even came close to scoring in the last game, indicating he has goal threat.
Carboni (11 credits)
Chivu`s confidence in him is clear: Valentin Carboni is undoubtedly one of Inter`s most positive surprises in this Club World Cup. He was decisive against Urawa Red Diamonds, scoring in the 92nd minute, and made a positive impact coming off the bench against River Plate. The young Argentine could be a winning option for Inter as a substitute in the Round of 16 match against Fluminense. At only 11 fantasy credits, he is definitely worth a chance to boost your team without breaking the bank.
