E. Martel is a holding midfielder at 1. FC Köln (76 overall, CDM) — competent at that. At 23 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 81): the sweet spot between output and projection. What sets them apart is their stamina of 86.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
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 and CB. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Centre-half, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is stamina (86), reading of the game (78) and strength (78). That outstanding stamina is their signature.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 12,4 M€ with 24 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. 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.
They start from 76 with a ceiling of 81 — that's +5 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM and CB.
Their potential is 81. They start from 76, so they can rise +5 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 12,4 M€, with 24 K€ wages.
Their reading of the game is 78 — competent for their position.
