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. The game also rewards them with roles like Box-to-Box, which reinforce that profile.
Their weapons: long passing (56) and short passing (55). Their long passing is poor and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their weak points: stamina (43) and reading of the game (46). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Their market price sits around 177 K€, with 1 K€ in wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 51 with a ceiling of 67 — that's +16 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
