FM Player No85 Abdou Lahat Diakhate

PLAYER NO85

Name: Abdou Lahat Diakhate

Original Team: Fiorentina U20’s  (Italy)

Best Position: Defensive Midfielder / Center Midfielder

Best Attribute: Natural Fitness, Anticipation, Passing

Bio: This is one of those rare gem finds. He’s 16 and playing in the under 20’s when the games starts, so you have to be patient (or secure him early and loan him out) but if you are.

You will certainly be rewarded. That’s because he develops into a solid, excellent, extremely consistent and highly reliable midfielder.

I generally played him at DM but he can quite easily play him CM. This is due to his unbelievable engine, he can literally run all game and seems to be everywhere covering every blade of grass.

But that’s not all. He has quality on the ball, not only does he have the ability to keep the ball and play in a pass and move team. He would often see a pass and thread a lovely through ball to create chances for his strikers.

He would also now and again surprise you with forages forward and pop up with the odd goal.

Quick tip if you alternate between passing and long shot training, he will not only have high assists, he will pop up with a few long-range goals per season.
