EVERY Dream Team World Cup manager wants to stack their team with superstar strikers.
But that isn’t always possible when you pick a strong defence and stack your midfield with the big guns.
And if that’s the route you’ve gone down when putting your team together, you might have to identify a bargain or two up top.
Fear not! We’ve selected three affordable strikers who have the potential to mix it with the world’s big hitters.

Dusan Vlahovic
- Country: Serbia
- Price: £3million
The Juventus man could be one to watch over the course of the next few weeks.
After a stunning 2021/22 season in which he scored 29 goals, he’s continued that fine form for The Old Lady this term (7G, 2A in 15 games).
Serbia finished ahead of Portugal in qualifying and have a strong attack with Vlahovic likely to lead the line alongside Aleksandar Mitrovic, with Filip Kostic, Dusan Tadic and Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic providing the service.
Mitrovic is the much more fancied out the pair by Dream Team World Cup bosses but given Vlahovic is £1million cheaper than his strike partner, he fits the bill for those in need of a bargain.
Steven Bergwijn
- Country: Netherlands
- Price: £4million
Netherlands should not be underestimated this winter and neither should their No7.
Bergwijn has eight goals and three assists for Ajax this season and his form at international level has been equally as impressive.
The ex-Spurs forward has six goals in his last nine international games, benefiting from Louis van Gaal’s attacking tactics.
The Oranje should storm their way through their group which also includes Qatar, Ecuador and Senegal sans Sadio Mane.
Breel Embolo
- Country: Switzerland
- Price: £3.5million
Switzerland may well be dark horses in Qatar.
Not only did they top Italy in qualifying, they’ve beaten Portugal and Spain already this year.
Embolo scored against Luis Enrique’s side and he’ll be the man to lead the line for his nation in the coming weeks.
He has eight goals and four assists for Monaco so far this campaign which is a more than respectable return on top of three goals and three assists in his four appearances in an injury-hit qualification campaign.
