Their place is up front as ST. A box striker rather than a counter-attacker: feed them crosses and arrivals, not long runs. They can also play RW and RM. The game also rewards them with roles like Advanced forward and Inside forward, which reinforce that profile.
Their weapons: acceleration (75) and top speed (73). Their acceleration is good and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their weak points: volleys (53) and aerial ability (54). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Their market price sits around 885 K€, with 1 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 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 61 with a ceiling of 71 — that's +10 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.
