M. Arnold is a holding midfielder at VfL Wolfsburg (79 overall, CDM) — reliable at that. At 31 they won't grow anymore, but they're still a reliable performer and the price eases. Above all they stand out for their short passing (82).

Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with their PlayStyle+ in Power Shot and roles like Deep-Lying playmaker and Centre-half, which reinforce that profile.
What makes them reliable: short passing (82), marking (78) and stamina (78). Their short passing is more than solid and it's the trait to build their game around. And their PlayStyle+ (Power Shot) push that ceiling even higher.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 14,8 M€ with 60 K€ wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
They're already at their ceiling (79): at their age the rating won't rise.
Their market value is around 14,8 M€, with 60 K€ wages.
Their reading of the game is 77 — reliable for their position.
