By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Santiago Ascacíbar have?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding and Box crasher, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
What makes them reliable: stamina (91), aggression (87) and short passing (79). That era-defining stamina is their signature.
Where do they struggle?
Their soft spots: strength (60). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 14,8 M€ with 21 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 (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
