The six face stats at a glance.
Matteo Lovato is a central defender at Empoli, rated 68 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 71, CB. By the standards of the role, that's unremarkable. In full maturity (25); sign them to win now, not for the future.

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 Defender and Wide back, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is strength (76) and jumping (75). That competent strength is their signature.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 1,7 M€ with 2 K€ wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. They're also out of contract soon (2027), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
They start from 68 with a ceiling of 71 — that's +3 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.
Their best position is CB.
Their potential is 71. They start from 68, so they can rise +3 with minutes and development.
