By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you play I. Tapia?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. They can also play RB, LB and RM. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Wide back, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What do they do well?
Where they really hurt you is strength (75) and jumping (72). That good strength is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
It's not all good: composure (48), marking (56) and top speed (52). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 590 K€ with 8 K€ wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. They're also out of contract soon (2025), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
What is I. Tapia's best position?
Their best position is CB, though they can also play RB, LB and RM.
How high can I. Tapia's rating go?
Their potential is 64. They start from 63, so they can rise +1 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?

Do they defend the box well?
Their marking is 56 — poor for their position.
