João Costa is a wide player at Al Ettifaq (71 overall, RM) — unremarkable at that. At 20 they're aiming at 86. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait. Above all they stand out for their acceleration (88).
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
Their place is out wide as RM. They work by stretching the pitch and attacking the full-back one-on-one; the more isolated with their marker, the better. They can also play LM, LB and RB. The game also rewards them with roles like Wide midfielder and Winger, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are acceleration (88) and top speed (86). That top-tier acceleration is their signature.
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Their market price sits around 5,3 M€, with 17 K€ in wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side.
They start from 71 with a ceiling of 86 — that's +15 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
Their best position is RM, though they can also play LM, LB and RB.
Their potential is 86. They start from 71, so they can rise +15 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 5,3 M€, with 17 K€ wages.
Their dribbling is 74 — run-of-the-mill for their position.
