How to get the best out of Leandro Santos in Career Mode
Leandro Santos is a wing-back at SL Benfica (67 overall, RB) — poor at that. At 19 they're aiming at 81. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait. What sets them apart is their acceleration of 84.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Leandro Santos have?
Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as RB. 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 RM. The game also rewards them with roles like Fullback, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
What makes them reliable: acceleration (84) and top speed (82). Their acceleration is very good and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
Their soft spots: marking (56) and slide tackling (59). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 2,7 M€ with 6 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them.
How far can they go?
They start from 67 with a ceiling of 81 — that's +14 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.
