Who doesn\u2019t love a transfer bargain?<\/p>\n

As a fan, seeing your club bring in a player for cheap, who\u2019s typically unknown or has a vast mystery around his profile and watching him become a superstar is nothing short of amazing.<\/p>\n

Every big football club has dozens of scouts, scattered across the globe, searching far and wide for the next Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo.<\/p>\n

Very rarely is a talent of this pedigree or a bargain to this nature found.<\/p>\n

But when a hidden gem is unearthed, this can bring returns on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n

Benfica\u2019s scouting, development and sales pitch brought them \u00a3113m<\/a>, when they sold Joao Felix in 2019 to Atletico Madrid, which for a Portuguese side which sits outside of the deep pit of financial freedom also known as the Premier League, is a huge thing which cannot be underestimated.<\/p>\n

As the business side of football has developed, the buy low and sell high model has been used significantly.<\/p>\n

Even sides as big as Liverpool have had to use this model, despite their wealthy financial position.<\/p>\n

Thus, with the ever-impending danger of FFP and breaching this, every club needs to find some bargains and make some healthy profit to stay sustainable.<\/p>\n

But even before FFP was even a consideration, clubs always wanted to discover the hidden gem and get the best possible bargains.<\/p>\n

Here is Manchester United\u2019s 10 best bargain signings.<\/p>\n

10th<\/sup> \u2013 Ji Sung Park<\/h2>\n

A cult hero at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

An unforgettable servant for the club, whose work rate and effort was the perfect role modelling attributes for younger players.<\/p>\n

Park signed for United in 2005 for just \u00a34m<\/a>.<\/p>\n
