How do you get the best out of Ilia Gruev?
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 Centre-half and Deep-Lying playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
Their weapons: stamina (78) and short passing (77). That reliable stamina is their signature.
What are they missing?
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 4,8 M€, with 37 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. They're also out of contract soon (2027), 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 73 with a ceiling of 79 — that's +6 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.
