If your club is struggling for form, there could be a quick fix in the shape of a free agent.
This season's hectic schedule has seen injuries pile up across the continent.
Rather than wait until the transfer window opens in January, clubs would be able to snap up unattached players immediately.

According to Premier Injuries, Everton currently have nine players on the treatment table, while Liverpool have five stars sidelined. Manchester United and Arsenal are both without five players due to injury
