How to get the best out of S. Elia in Career Mode
S. Elia is a wing-back at Empoli (69 overall, RB) — unremarkable at that. In full maturity (26); sign them to win now, not for the future. Above all they stand out for their acceleration (84).
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should S. Elia have?
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 LB and RM. The game also rewards them with roles like Attacking wingback and Wingback, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
What makes them reliable: acceleration (84), stamina (81) and top speed (79). That more than solid acceleration is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their soft spots: tackling (59) and slide tackling (61). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 2 M€ with 4 K€ wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. They're also out of contract soon (2027), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
How far can they go?
They start from 69 with a ceiling of 72 — that's +3 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 S. Elia's best position?
Their best position is RB, though they can also play LB and RM.
How high can S. Elia's rating go?

Are they expensive to sign?

Can they handle the flank up and down?
Their top speed is 79 — reliable for their position.
