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 Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Their weapons: aggression (70) and short passing (64). Their aggression is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.
Their weak points: stamina (48) and reading of the game (49). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Their market price sits around 513 K€, with 2 K€ in wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side.
They start from 58 with a ceiling of 71 — that's +13 of headroom. They're young, so they'll grow fast with games: the big jump comes before 23. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
