Julien Masson is a holding midfielder at FC Sochaux-Montbéliard, rated 65 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 68, CDM. That's a bit short for their position. At 28 they're at their peak and deliver from matchday one.

Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM and CAM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are stamina (81) and strength (69). That notable stamina is their signature.
Where they struggle: slide tackling (60) and tackling (61). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Their market price sits around 884 K€, with 2 K€ in wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. 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 65 with a ceiling of 68 — that's +3 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM and CAM.
Their potential is 68. They start from 65, so they can rise +3 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 884 K€, with 2 K€ wages.
