How to get the best out of Melendo in Career Mode
Melendo is an all-rounder at Shanghai Port (71 overall, CM) — decent at that. In full maturity (27); sign them to win now, not for the future.
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you get the best out of Melendo?
Their place is in central midfield as CM. Put them in charge of the tempo; they shine passing and organising more than arriving in the box. They can also play RM, CAM and RW. The game also rewards them with roles like Box-to-Box and Winger, which reinforce that profile.
What are their strengths?
What makes them reliable: short passing (76) and ball control (76). Their short passing is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 2,4 M€ with 18 K€ wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
