How to get the best out of R. Melgarejo in Career Mode

R. Melgarejo is a centre-back at Cerro Porteño (60 overall, CB) — poor at that. At 22 they still have 7 points to grow up to 67, so they add to the XI and gain value.

By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2024

What role should R. Melgarejo have?

Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. Put them in charge of the back line; they defend the box and set pieces better than chasing in open space. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender, which reinforce that profile.

What are their strengths?

Their weapons: strength (70) and jumping (67). Their strength is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.

What are they missing?

Their weak points: aerial ability (56) and slide tackling (59). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.

Are they worth the price?

Their market price sits around 513 K€, with 12 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 2024, you have leverage to bring the price down.

How much will they grow?

They start from 60 with a ceiling of 67 — that's +7 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.

What is R. Melgarejo's best position?

Their best position is CB.

How high can R. Melgarejo's rating go?

Their potential is 67. They start from 60, so they can rise +7 with minutes and development.

Are they expensive to sign?

Their market value is around 513 K€, with 12 K€ wages.

Do they defend the box well?

Their marking is 60 — poor for their position.
