Luis Rioja is a winger at Valencia CF, rated 78 overall in FC 26, RM. By the standards of the role, that's good. At 31 they won't grow anymore, but they're still a reliable performer and the price eases.
By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2025
Their place is out wide as RM. Give them the ball out wide and space to attack: they beat their marker one-on-one and look for the byline or the shot from their side. They can also play LM and RW. The game also rewards them with roles like Winger and Inside forward, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
Where they really hurt you is dribbling (80), acceleration (79) and agility (79). Their dribbling is more than solid and it's the trait to build their game around.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 13,6 M€ with 48 K€ wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
Their best position is RM, though they can also play LM and RW.
They're already at their ceiling (78): at their age the rating won't rise.
Their market value is around 13,6 M€, with 48 K€ wages.
Their dribbling is 80 — notable for their position.
