By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2026
What role should Satoshi Tanaka have?
Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Anchor them in front of the centre-backs to screen space, break up play and make the first pass. They're the team's balance. They can also play CB and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What do they do well?
What makes them reliable: short passing (74) and tackling (72). That run-of-the-mill short passing is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their soft spots: marking (61) and aggression (62). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth the price?
Worth around 3,3 M€ with 13 K€ wages. As an investment they're among the best: give them minutes, they gain value and you end up making money on them.
How far can they go?
They start from 69 with a ceiling of 78 — 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.
What is Satoshi Tanaka's best position?

How high can Satoshi Tanaka's rating go?

Do they win the ball back well?
