FC 24 is just over four months old, and despite a bumpy start, recent Title Updates have moved it in the right direction. As a result, players are finally enjoying the game, with many deep into their Ultimate Team journeys and Career Mode saves.
Speaking of Career Mode, EA's rebranded football title is home to some of the best and most exciting talents out there, and here at RealSport101, we like to keep an eye out for those who are new or have perhaps slipped under the radar.
With the January transfer window now open, some of them could be on the move this month, and Marcos Leonardo is no exception joining Benfica from Santos. In this article, we'll take a closer look at his profile and whether or not he's in FC 24. So, without further ado, let's dive in!
Who is Marcos Leonardo?
Unless you are a close follower of Brazilian football, Marcos Leonardo won't be a familiar name to many right now, but that's not to say he won't be very soon.
That's because Leonardo has just made a £15 million move to Portuguese giants Benfica!
The 20-year-old striker climbed through the ranks at Santos a club once home to some of the best players to ever grace the game, including Pele and Neymar, scoring 54 goals along the way.
Currently a Brazil Under-23 international, Leonardo has also bagged nine goals for his country since the age of 15.
According to Breaking The Lines, Leonardo combines "pure poacher instincts with solid on-the-ball ability", and his stats certainly back that up.
Is Marcos Leonardo in FC 24?
Thanks to the brand-new Title Update 7, Marcos Leonardo is now officially available in FC 24!
Career Mode fans will be delighted with this new addition, and the wonderkid looks to be a perfect buy for a Career Mode save.
EA has given Leonardo a 76-rating with a potential of 85 which is incredible!
The Brazilian striker has played one match for Benfica scoring in just 27 minutes of game time, and he has been upgraded to a 77 OVR in Kick-Off mode, meaning another update to his rating and potential could be imminent.
Marcos Leonardo is certainly one to keep your eye on, and this big move to Benfica seems like only the start of an illustrious career!
