Jonathan Varane 72

Jonathan Varane is a Silver CDM with an overall of 72 in EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team, playable at CM too, and he plays for QPR in the EFL Championship for France. His standout trait is physical: 79 PHY and a strength of 82 make him hard to move in midfield duels.

He suits a Holding role at CDM, where his 70 DEF, 72 short passing and Pinged Pass PlayStyle help him keep possession and switch play. He can also be used in a Centre-Half role. His 50 SHO and weak finishing and shot power mean he is not a goal threat, so he is best kept in a defensive job.

This card is for players who want a solid, physical defensive midfielder on a budget squad, especially for building a midfield around duels and simple passing.
