How to get the best out of Marcos Paulo in Career Mode

Marcos Paulo is a wide player at Atlético Madrid (69 overall, LM) — decent at that. At 23 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 77): the sweet spot between output and projection.

By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2024

How do you play Marcos Paulo?

Their place is out wide as LM. 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 ST. The game also rewards them with roles like Winger and Wide midfielder, which reinforce that profile.

What are you buying?

What makes them reliable: acceleration (70) and ball control (70). Their acceleration is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.

What are they missing?

Their soft spots: curve (51). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.

Are they a good buy?

Worth around 3,3 M€ with 32 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.

How far can they go?

They start from 69 with a ceiling of 77 — that's +8 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.

What is Marcos Paulo's best position?

Their best position is LM, though they can also play ST.

How high can Marcos Paulo's rating go?

Their potential is 77. They start from 69, so they can rise +8 with minutes and development.

Are they expensive to sign?

Their market value is around 3,3 M€, with 32 K€ wages.

Are they good at dribbling?

Their dribbling is 69 — decent for their position.
