How to get the best out of D. van Kaam in Career Mode
D. van Kaam is a holding midfielder at Heracles Almelo (66 overall, CDM) — poor at that. At 25 they're at their peak and deliver from matchday one.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you get the best out of D. van Kaam?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Anchor them in front of the centre-backs to screen space, break up play and make the first pass. They're the team's balance. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Wide half, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Where they really hurt you is stamina (77) and short passing (69). Their stamina is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where do they struggle?
It's not all good: slide tackling (53) and tackling (56). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 1,4 M€ with 5 K€ wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How far can they go?
They start from 66 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +6 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
What is D. van Kaam's best position?
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
How high can D. van Kaam's rating go?
Their potential is 72. They start from 66, so they can rise +6 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 1,4 M€, with 5 K€ wages.
Do they win the ball back well?
Their reading of the game is 67 — weak for their position.
