By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Montero have?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. Put them in charge of the back line; they defend the box and set pieces better than chasing in open space. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Stopper, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: tackling (75) and strength (75). That competent tackling is their signature.
Where do they struggle?
Their weak points: composure (61). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 2,5 M€, with 6 K€ in wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. 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 70 with a ceiling of 75 — that's +5 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
