By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Íñigo Sainz-Maza have?
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. The game also rewards them with roles like Wide half and Holding, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
What makes them reliable: stamina (84) and tackling (70). That notable stamina is their signature.
What are they missing?
Their soft spots: marking (57). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 1,4 M€ with 5 K€ 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 far can they go?
They start from 67 with a ceiling of 70 — that's +3 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.

Do they win the ball back well?
Their reading of the game is 67 — poor for their position.
