The six face stats at a glance.
Makai Welch is a holding midfielder at Leyton Orient, rated 54 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 68, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's a liability. At 19 they're aiming at 68. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

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 RB and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile.
What makes them reliable: aggression (57) and stamina (56). Their aggression is a bit short and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their soft spots: reading of the game (52) and marking (52). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Worth around 283 K€ with 1 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 54 with a ceiling of 68 — 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.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play RB and CM.
