First appearance in the data
Jerónimo Russo is a wing-back at Newell's Old Boys, rated 62 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 76, LB. By the standards of the role, that's weak. At 21 they're aiming at 76. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as LB. They suit a system that lets them get forward: they add width in attack and need cover in case they're caught out behind. They can also play LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Attacking wingback and Wingback, which reinforce that profile.
Their weapons: top speed (69) and acceleration (69). That unremarkable top speed is their signature.
Their weak points: crossing (53) and reading of the game (55). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Their market price sits around 1,1 M€, with 2 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.
They start from 62 with a ceiling of 76 — that's +14 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.
