Santiago Cena is a centre-back at Independiente Rivadavia, rated 57 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 66, CB. That's a bit short for their position. At 21 they're aiming at 66. A project, not an instant fix, but the kind worth the wait.

Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. The game also rewards them with roles like Defender, which reinforce that profile.
What makes them reliable: tackling (68) and slide tackling (67). That unremarkable tackling is their signature.
Their soft spots: composure (42) and marking (52). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Worth around 399 K€ with 2 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
They start from 57 with a ceiling of 66 — that's +9 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.
