How to get the best out of Paulinho in Career Mode
Paulinho is a forward at Buriram United, rated 70 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 76, ST. That's decent for their position. At 31 they're a present-day asset: proven level and leadership for the dressing room. Above all they stand out for their top speed (86).
By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2026
What role should Paulinho have?
Their place is up front as ST. Set them up to run into the channels; their strength isn't linking up with their back to goal but bursting onto the counter. They can also play CAM and RW. The game also rewards them with roles like Advanced forward, which reinforce that profile. Technically, their 4★ skill moves give them options in one-on-ones.
What are their strengths?
Their best assets are top speed (86) and acceleration (77). Their top speed is elite and it's the trait to build their game around.
What are they missing?
Where they struggle: aerial ability (62). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 2,3 M€, with 22 K€ in wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high.
How much will they grow?
They start from 70 with a ceiling of 76 — that's +6 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 Paulinho's best position?
Their best position is ST, though they can also play CAM and RW.
How high can Paulinho's rating go?
Their potential is 76. They start from 70, so they can rise +6 with minutes and development.
Are they expensive to sign?

Do they finish well?
Their finishing is 69 — unremarkable for their position.
