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 CAM and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Poacher and Playmaker, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are finishing (68) and off-the-ball movement (68). Their finishing is run-of-the-mill and it's the trait to build their game around.
Where they struggle: top speed (45) and aerial ability (56). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Their market price sits around 1,2 M€, with 4 K€ in wages. Not a bargain, but money well spent if you want a reliable starter from day one. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 65 with a ceiling of 69 — that's +4 of headroom. Some room left, but at their age improvement is slow now: don't expect a leap. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is ST, though they can also play CAM and CM.
Their potential is 69. They start from 65, so they can rise +4 with minutes and development.
