Rio Cardines is a wing-back at Crystal Palace, rated 62 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 75, RB. That's poor for their position. They're 20 with a ceiling of 75: with minutes, in two or three seasons they're a different player.
By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2026
Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as RB. They suit a system that lets them get forward: they add width in attack and need cover in case they're caught out behind. They can also play RM, LB and LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Attacking wingback and Wide midfielder, which reinforce that profile.
Their weapons: top speed (69) and acceleration (68). Their top speed is unremarkable and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their weak points: reading of the game (56) and slide tackling (57). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Their market price sits around 1,1 M€, with 13 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.
They start from 62 with a ceiling of 75 — that's +13 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
Their best position is RB, though they can also play RM, LB and LM.
