Div 2 Player, Consistent Rank 4-5 in Champs

With the release of the Prime Icon pack, I decided to test my luck after getting transfer banned. As you could probably tell, I got this beast and put him straight into my team. I used him as a right striker with WW Martial in a 5212, and he completely surprised me with good he was. Used an engine on him to boost his pace and dribbling.

Pace - Very rapid. Outpaced 80% of all defenders he played, apart from the odd TOTY Dias or Marquinhos. He outpaces just about everybody, but he will not be as fast as Mbappe or Vini with his body type (High and Average) and height (6'2). Nonetheless, still very fast.

Shooting - The best part about this card. Clinical even without a chem style boosting it. Long shots not so much, but inside the box is another story: 90% of his shots will go in. Definitely play him through balls or play him as a target man.

Dribbling - To be honest, I expected this to be an issue, and it really wasn't. He felt surprisingly agile at times and managed to trick defenders with left stick dribbling sometimes. It's inconsistent and will not feel the best during slow gameplay, but still very good for someone of his body type and height, and on the odd occasion, better than Martial's.

Passing - Not really something I noticed, but short passes and linkup play were very rarely screwed up by him, if never at all. Didn't play long balls.

Physicality - Despite having somewhat low strength and aggression, he bullied good defenders off the ball (Kimpembe as a prime example). His body type is a positive here, as it will help him win more shoulder-to-shoulder duels with a defender. However, his low balance can make him get bodied by more physical defenders far easily.

Overall, this card is excellent, and completely surpassed my expectations. Price is a bit iffy, but if you can afford him, try him out. He is a top 20 striker in the game for sure.
