How do you get the best out of Diego Méndez?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. 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?
Their weapons: tackling (66) and marking (66). That poor tackling is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their weak points: stamina (52). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 1,4 M€, with 5 K€ in wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
How much will they grow?
They start from 64 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +8 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.
