Carlos Ballestero is a full-back at Deportivo Alavés, rated 61 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 72, RB. That's a bit short for their position. At 22 they still have 11 points to grow up to 72, so they add to the XI and gain value.

Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as RB. Use them as a wing-back in a back three or with a holding midfielder to cover their runs. They can also play LB and CB. The game also rewards them with roles like Fullback and Fullback, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
Where they really hurt you is top speed (75) and acceleration (75). Their top speed is reliable and it's the trait to build their game around.
It's not all good: crossing (50) and slide tackling (58). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Worth around 798 K€ with 2 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 61 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +11 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
Their best position is RB, though they can also play LB and CB.
