FM16 Player Guide - Mexican Magician Hirving Lozano
Background InformationHirving Lozano born on the 30th July 1995 is a talented Mexican Winger who has took the whole of Central America by storm with his performances on the field for his club and country. He has attracted a lot of interest with a lot of the big European clubs looking to prize him away from Mexican giants Pachuca CF with the likes of Manchester United, Liverpool, PSV etc gunning for the young starlet’s signature.
Recent Stats
When Lozano burst onto the scene in 2014 from the youth team making his debut against Club America scoring the winning goal a few minutes after coming on as a substitute, after some more impressive displays he quickly built himself into a regular name on the team sheet making a total of 24 appearances.
After some solid displays for Pachuca he made his debut for Mexico’s U-20’s in the CONCACAF Under-20 Championship against Cuba which turned out to be a very impressive debut for Lozano, getting on the score sheet once and assisting four times in Mexico’s 9-1 win against Cuba. He finished off with a total of 8 caps and 6 goals for the U-20’s with adding the Golden Boot to his achievements.
In recent times Lozano received his first senior call-up to the Mexican squad under Juan Carlos Osorio, not long after he made his debut in a friendly against Senegal, Mexico won the game 2-0 as Lozano completed 90 minutes. Then on the 25th of March this year came his first senior international goal against Canada.
FM 2016 - Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths:
Hirving Lozano’s main strengths are his Pace, Acceleration, Dribbling and Passing which will be big assets for him being more suited as a ‘Inside Forward’ being able to cut inside from the left wing and moving into channels which suits him fine being able to play on either wings and as a Striker.
Weaknesses:
Hirving Lozano’s weaknesses really are maybe his Composure, Finishing and technique which might explain why he might struggle with the physicality of the Premier League, there is a lot to work on but with the right training can live up to his potential.
Transfer Likelihood
Hirving Lozano could possibly be a good signing for any top division club but will come at quite a cost despite his low starting value of 2.3 million pounds, you will have to be looking in the region of paying 10-15 million pounds for this youngster which will probably mean you will need to be a team challenging for European football maybes which will go nicely with his Fairly Ambitious personality.
Conclusion
Overall I would suggest anyone looking for a fast tricky player who can play on either side of the attacking end of the pitch should at least consider Hirving Lozano because you will regret it.
Let me know how that went and tell me what I can improve and what not. Thanks for Reading.
