J. Romero is a central midfielder at América de Cali (61 overall, CM) — a bit short at that. They're 19 with a ceiling of 71: with minutes, in two or three seasons they're a different player.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
Their place is in central midfield as CM. They're the engine of midfield: circulate the ball, start moves and connect defence to attack. Surround them with legs that run for them. The game also rewards them with roles like Box-to-Box, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is stamina (76) and short passing (68). Their stamina is reliable and it's the trait to build their game around.
It's not all good: vision (51) and composure (55). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Worth around 826 K€ with 4 K€ 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.
They start from 61 with a ceiling of 71 — that's +10 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CM.
Their potential is 71. They start from 61, so they can rise +10 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 826 K€, with 4 K€ wages.
Their short passing is 68 — run-of-the-mill for their position.
