How to get the best out of Nelson Sanca in Career Mode
Nelson Sanca is a central defender at Newport County (53 overall, CB) — a liability at that. At 18 they're aiming at 63. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

How do you get the best out of Nelson Sanca?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
Their weapons: strength (70) and jumping (62). That decent strength is their signature.
What are they missing?
Their weak points: aerial ability (50), reading of the game (51) and top speed (61). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they a good buy?
Their market price sits around 212 K€, with 1 K€ in wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. 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 much will they grow?
They start from 53 with a ceiling of 63 — that's +10 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.

Do they defend the box well?
