Corentin Jean career history until 2020
This FM 2014 player profile of Corentin Jean shows a talented young striker from France, he can become a very good versatile man up front in a few seasons. Troyes want 6.5 million for him at the start of the game but I believe that the price might drop by a couple of million later on.
In my test save he moved to the Premier League in 2015, first at West Brom and then, after a couple of solid seasons, to Chelsea for a hefty fee of 29 million pounds. He did a very good job at Stamford Bridge in the first couple of seasons, then became a backup player probably due to the club bringing in a higher profile striker.
His future screen shot shows a striker with great speed and strength, good mental attributes and decent technique as well. He would be a good choice if you can’t afford expensive strikers, he probably won’t become as good as Fierro and the likes but he should still be a decent alternative.
