Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Current Overall: 76

Pace: 62     Shooting: 64     Passing: 74          Dribbling: 75            Defending: 71         Physicality: 75

The Danish midfielder with another solid season under his belt will be due for an upgrade come FIFA 20. One of our more consistent performers who is solid in all facet of the game will most likely not see any one stat sky rocket this year but will get a nice little bump in each area.

He has proven he is comfortable on the ball and also going in for a hard-nosed tackle to win the ball back when need be. He will be a solid holding midfielder for teams in the next edition of FIFA.

Predicted Overall: 79

Pace: 65     Shooting: 70     Passing: 80          Dribbling: 80            Defending: 76         Physicality: 78
