By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2024
How do you get the best out of J. Varela?
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 LB. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Fullback, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
What makes them reliable: jumping (78) and strength (75). Their jumping is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their soft spots: composure (56) and top speed (58). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 1,6 M€ with 3 K€ wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
