Matthew Litherland is a central defender at Blackburn Rovers, rated 54 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 72, CB. By the standards of the role, that's a liability. At 19 they're aiming at 72. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

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, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are strength (61) and jumping (58). That a bit short strength is their signature.
Where they struggle: composure (41) and aerial ability (51). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Their market price sits around 325 K€, with 2 K€ in wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. 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 54 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +18 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.
