How do you play Matheus Índio?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Anchor them in front of the centre-backs to screen space, break up play and make the first pass. They're the team's balance. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Wide half and Deep-Lying playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
Where they really hurt you is stamina (81) and strength (75). That notable stamina is their signature.
What are they missing?
It's not all good: marking (62). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 1,7 M€ with 5 K€ wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
How far can they go?
They start from 67 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +5 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.

How high can Matheus Índio's rating go?

Do they win the ball back well?
Their reading of the game is 63 — poor for their position.
