First appearance in the data
Yílmar Velásquez is a holding midfielder at Independiente Santa Fe, rated 68 overall in FC 27 with a potential of 73, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's run-of-the-mill. In full maturity (26); sign them to win now, not for the future.
By FAFIFA Team · updated August 2026
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 and CAM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Their best assets are strength (77) and stamina (74). Their strength is competent and it's the trait to build their game around.
For their role there's no weakness of note; a very well-rounded player.
Their market price sits around 1,8 M€, with 2 K€ in wages. You pay for immediate, proven output: pricey but no surprises, they deliver now. And with a contract until 2027, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 68 with a ceiling of 73 — that's +5 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 CDM, though they can also play CM and CAM.
Their potential is 73. They start from 68, so they can rise +5 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 1,8 M€, with 2 K€ wages.
Their reading of the game is 64 — a bit short for their position.
