How do you play Mateo Carabajal?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. Put them in charge of the back line; they defend the box and set pieces better than chasing in open space. The game also rewards them with roles like Stopper and Ball-playing defender, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: jumping (76) and strength (73). Their jumping is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?

Are they a good buy?
Their market price sits around 1,9 M€, with 17 K€ in wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. And with a contract until 2025, you have leverage to bring the price down.
