First appearance in the data
Ederson Castillo is a defensive midfielder at LDU Quito, rated 60 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 77, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's poor. At 17 with 17 points of headroom up to 77, they're one of the most serious bets on the future you can sign.

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, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are short passing (65) and reading of the game (62). Their short passing is a bit short and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where they struggle: marking (50) and slide tackling (50). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Their market price sits around 656 K€, with 2 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. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 60 with a ceiling of 77 — that's +17 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
