End of Season 2018/2019

3 players have retired from football, unable to find new clubs.

Goalkeepers

Jace Hunter, Feyernoord, 4.6m valuation:
Jace had a good year as the Feyernoord number 1 and was named as the third best keeper in the Eredivise. He also picked up his first 2 caps for Holland this season.

Games: 40 games (1 as sub), 39 conceded, 12 clean sheets, 2 MOM, 6.88 rating

Al Mighty, Torino, 3.4m valuation:
Al's Torino side came in 6th in Serie A, their best placing in years. Al himself had a decent year as the starter although no significant personal accolades for him.

Games: 33 games, 38 conceded, 13 clean sheets, 1 MOM, 6.94 rating

Defenders

Robbie Collins, Wigan, 2.3m valuation:
Robbie may have made the wrong career decision as he elected to move to Wigan in January (a 975k transfer). QPR eventually ended the season in 2nd and were promoted to the Premier League while Wigan came in 10th. His season ended prematurely after the move when he broke a toe, hence his limited appearances.

Games (for QPR): 30 games, 1 assist, 6.60 rating
Games (for Wigan): 6 games, 6.92 rating

Flere Imsaho, Monaco, 28.5m valuation:
Flere is very happy at Monaco although he isn't playing as regularly as before. Hard to complain when he's winning titles and enjoying life by the Riviera though.

Games: 21 games (6 as sub), 3 assists, 7.20 rating

Rohan Edwards, Twente, 1.9m valuation:
Rohan finally gets the chance to play regular football and he shows that he has some ability with the Twente first team. He was appointed as the vice-captain of the side as well.

Games: 27 games (3 as sub), 1 assist, 6.70 rating

David Ginsberg, Rennais, 205k valuation:
David will not be at Rennais next season as he signed a Bosman with Celtic. His last year with Rennais was quite good though as he played well and the club came in 4th.

Games: 35 games, 3 assists, 2 MOM, 6.83 rating

Midfielders

Jawouk Bafou, Man Utd, 775k valuation:
Jawouk shows that he can play football, at least at the League 2 level, as he was good with Fleetwood. This is also the season where he started the most games in his career.

Games: 24 games, 2 assists, 1 MOM, 7.14 rating

Jake Chippin, free:
Jake has retired from football as he was unable to find a club to sign him on. [Apologies, didn't turn on keep history after retirement so I don't have stats right now]

Career Games: 0

Deacon Palmieri, Lorient, 3.8m valuation:
Deacon had a respectable season with Genk as he created 9 goals for the first team. He returns to Lorient after the season with his future still up in the air.

Games: 23 games (1 as sub), 9 assists, 6.66 rating

Shane Christopher, retired:
Shane has retired from football. His career saw him sign with Dinamo in Croatia and spending one season on loan to Internacional in Brazil. He was never able to hammer down a regular first team spot after the loan though. Capped 5 times by South Africa as well.

Career League Games: 70 games, 2 goals

Benton Gale, Everton, 11.75m valuation:
A good signing for Everton as he played well to justify the price paid for him. He was second in the team with 8 assists. His next challenge will be to get an England call-up.

Games: 34 games (3 as sub), 1 goal, 8 assists, 6.96 rating

Michael Samuelle, Leverkusen, 70k valuation:
Michael finishes the season with Chemnitz and he played well during his stint. However, his contract expires soon and there's no indication Leverkusen will renew it.

Games: 13 games (2 as sub), 3 goals, 1 assist, 2 MOM, 6.88 rating

Eddie Chilton, Fulham, 7m valuation:
Eddie and Fulham finally sort out their differences as he signs a contract that keeps him with the club until 2022 and he also plays a much larger role with the first team. He definitely showed an eye for creating from the wing, with 9 assists.

Games: 36 games (17 as sub), 1 goal, 9 assists, 6.79 rating

Dex Morgan, Feyernoord, 3.3m valuation:
More regular playing time for Dex this year as he made 25 appearances for Feyernoord. Managed to pick up a runners-up medal in the Dutch Super Cup.

Games: 25 games (7 as sub), 4 assists, 6.57 rating

Patrick Hutt, Xolos Tijuana, 2.7m:
Crazy how quickly things can sometimes change for the better in football. Patrick has managed to keep himself fit and he's playing great football for Xolos and has now been capped 9 times for the US.

Games: 22 games, 2 goals, 4 assists, 1 MOM, 7.35 rating

Kuji Chagulia, free:
Kuji has retired from football. He started at OB in Denmark and was decent enough there for a big move to PSG. However, the suspicion is that the move to PSG pretty much killed his career as he was never able to prove himself there and found opportunities very limited thereafter.

Career League Games: 69 games, 15 goals

Strikers

Rob Nielsen, Marseille, 20m valuation:
Rob finishes the season without any titles as Marseille come in 3rd in Ligue 1. He's a very good player but the suspicion is that he needs to be a little more predatory. Pretty much the first choice striker for the US national team side, with 52 caps to date.

Games: 37 games (8 as sub), 11 goals, 4 assists, 2 MOM, 6.96 rating

Brian Bennett, Nice, 725k valuation:
Brian signs a one year extension to his contract, which now expires in 2020. He was a part-time starter for Nice but was unable to push them back into Ligue 1 as they finish 5th in Ligue 2.

Games: 23 games (7 as sub), 6 goals, 6.68 rating

Roger Berisha, Evian, 2.1m valuation:
Roger also had his chances to play this season but Evian had a bad year and were relegated. Will Roger look to move as a result?

Games: 24 games (11 as sub), 7 goals, 6.91 rating
