Summary
A well rounded striker, Thomas Buitink has speed, can finish and link up play. I like him as a pressing forward but Advanced Forward would suit best. During our test save Buitink developed great finishing, dribbling, movement, vision and physical stats, testament to his versatility.
At £14.5 million Buitink is one of the most affordable strikers that can start (and will move to) mid-table top flight sides. The kid could walk into the first team for most EPL clubs. His scoring record is good from my test save and should be much better under good management.
