Scout report
Ball-Playing Defender++ is the top familiarity level of a CB role built around Defend, Build-Up and Aggressive focuses. It rewards centre-backs who defend hard, step into pressure and still support the build-up. In FC 27, 161 cards carry it.
The role asks for Defending, Build-Up Support, Defence Support, Pressure and Aggressiveness, so it suits a CB who steps out to win the ball and then helps play out from the back. The ranking is led by Jaap Stam (88 CDM), Carlos Alberto (91 RB) and Franz Beckenbauer (93 CB), and the best pure CBs include Pubill and Dayot Upamecano.
Pick it if your defence plays high, presses and builds from the back. If you prefer a deep, passive line, another CB role will likely suit you better.
