Armini could be your gritty, old fashioned, no none centre back. A diamond in the rough the young gun does take some moulding but at £2.1 million is a small risk to take and guaranteed return on your investment.

Summary
Armini could be your gritty, old fashioned, no none centre back. A diamond in the rough the young gun does take some moulding but at £900K is a small risk to take and guaranteed return on your investment. Don’t be put off by the lack of strength that seemed to be corrected quickly in my test save and Nicolo’s general defensive ability has a good foundation.
Determined, decisive, good in the tackle and surpisingly athletic, Armini seems a good option for the modern centre back. I’d apply a role of central defender, he wouldn’t be a disaster playing more technical roles, but its not recommended.
