FM Player No120 Yáser Asprilla

PLAYER NO120

Name: Yáser Asprilla

Original Team: Envigado FC (Colombia)

Best Position: Attacking Midfield right

Best Attribute: Dribbling  / Off the ball / Passing

Bio: This could be a real gem of a player. But I will say pursue him at your own risk. I say this as, admittedly, it could go either way.

However, I am a risk taker, and the risk paid off for me, but I have seen the player in other teams that have not gone so well.

That said, he is 17 when the game starts, and if you purchase him early, he certainly has the attributes to be a top baller, provided he is nurtured and used correctly.

He is not one for the very top teams, but an asset for any team in and around chasing for a Europa League place and a real star for any team below that.

A left-footed winger, I generally used him on the right in attacking midfield (think 4231) or on the left of a front three, think (433).

He has the skill, pace, and goal scoring abilities to cause defenders all sorts of trouble. No relation to the Colombian legend Fustino, but certainly resembles him in the way he can beat players and score goals.

If you get him, my advice would be to build his strength and positioning, and things will fall into place.

Well, at least it did for me. He went on to become an exciting Colombian international who could blow hot and cold, but when he was on it, he was a joy and often popped up with some important goals.
