What role should Rafa have?
Their place is in the hole, between the lines as CAM. Play them between the lines with freedom to receive and thread the final ball; they turn possession into chances. They can also play ST and LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Shadow striker and Half-winger, which reinforce that profile. Technically, their 4★ skill moves give them options in one-on-ones and watch their weak foot (2★): always angle them onto their strong side.
What do they do well?
Their best assets are agility (91), dribbling (85) and ball control (84). Their agility is era-defining and it's the trait to build their game around.
Do they have weaknesses?
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Are they a good buy?
Their market price sits around 28,3 M€, with 67 K€ in wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
What is Rafa's best position?
