By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you get the best out of Niu Ziyi?
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. They can also play LB, CDM and LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender and Ball-playing defender, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
What makes them reliable: strength (70) and jumping (60). That run-of-the-mill strength is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their soft spots: composure (40), reading of the game (51) and top speed (51). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they a good buy?
Worth around 201 K€ with 1 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 (2025), 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 53 with a ceiling of 60 — that's +7 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
What is Niu Ziyi's best position?
Their best position is CB, though they can also play LB, CDM and LM.
How high can Niu Ziyi's rating go?
Their potential is 60. They start from 53, so they can rise +7 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?
Their market value is around 201 K€, with 1 K€ wages.
Do they defend the box well?
Their marking is 52 — almost non-existent for their position.
