Notes:
(1) Potential is an average of estimated rating a player can reach. It doesn’t mean that you will reach that overall nor that you won’t overcome it.
Hi Rodrigo, I’m doing Manchester United Career and I already purchased Saúl and Griezmann I’m looking for a good CB as I sold Smalling Jones and Rojo thinking of Umtiti or Giménez
Both are good but you should also look for Sule and Tah.
Pace and stamina isn’t all green for sule or tah so who best for around 40mill
They need time.
