Soumaïla Diabaté is a holding midfielder at FC Red Bull Salzburg, rated 68 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 79, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's run-of-the-mill. At 20 with 11 points of headroom up to 79, they're one of the most serious bets on the future you can sign. What sets them apart is their stamina of 83.

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 Wide half and Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is stamina (83) and short passing (71). Their stamina is very good and it's the trait to build their game around.
It's not all good: strength (55) and aggression (60). Nothing the right system and teammates can't cover.
Worth around 3 M€ with 7 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 68 with a ceiling of 79 — that's +11 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
Their potential is 79. They start from 68, so they can rise +11 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 3 M€, with 7 K€ wages.
