4 years ago, Jonathan Biabiany was rated 80 overall in FIFA 14 and was a shrewd buy for those scouting players in their mid-20's with a definite upside. Now 29, the Frenchman has lost his 'youth potential', is rated 75 and has left Italy for the first time in his career. At Sparta Prague on loan, Biabiany hasn't scored in 5 games to date.

He's never been a goal machine, admittedly. At Parma, Biabiany managed just 14 goals in 108 appearances. That's not too surprising when looking at his 65 shooting stat, but you may still get some value out of the ex-Inter man out on the wing. As far as right-sided players go, Biabiany is the fastest in the game with a massive 96 pace stat.

That's 6 higher than Cristiano Ronaldo's speed, 7 higher than Lionel Messi's and even 4 more than PSG's marquee signing Neymar. Think about that for a second. Jonathan Biabiany is faster in FIFA 18 than the 3 best players in EA's Top 100, and he has 77 dribbling to boast about too.
