Facundo Cruz is a midfielder at Independiente, rated 65 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 78, CM. By the standards of the role, that's poor. At 20 they're aiming at 78. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

Their place is in central midfield as CM. They're the engine of midfield: circulate the ball, start moves and connect defence to attack. Surround them with legs that run for them. They can also play CDM. The game also rewards them with roles like Box-to-Box and Box crasher, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are stamina (73) and long passing (67). That run-of-the-mill stamina is their signature.
Where they struggle: composure (58) and reading of the game (59). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Their market price sits around 1,9 M€, with 3 K€ in wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side.
They start from 65 with a ceiling of 78 — that's +13 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.
