How do you play Javi Castro?
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. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Stopper, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: jumping (74) and marking (72). Their jumping is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.
Do they have weaknesses?
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Are they a good buy?
Their market price sits around 3,9 M€, with 6 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. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How much will they grow?
They start from 70 with a ceiling of 79 — that's +9 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.
