Thoughts?

I would not even bid on him. He is a striker, but speed quality is way 2 low.

This player is a great example of why AQ is not a good judge of a player and EQ (Effective Quality) should always be calculated. His speed quality of 25 will massively cripple his growth. For the ratios I train my forwards, his EQ is around 53 which is really low - I only have 1 player on my current team around that range, and that is only because I need him as a backup until his replacement catches up.

My recommendation is to only train his primary and resell him sometime after his primary is 100+ and OR is 400+.

That was kind of my thought. Flip him like a house.
