Elber Gonzalez

Energetic and relentless, this Colombian center-back uses explosive physical strength to dominate strikers, though his frequent foul record proves his struggle to time a standing tackle perfectly. Having overcome a debilitating phobia of birds that forced him to train inside darkened tunnels as a youth, he channeled that trauma into a ferocious speed and a hunger that keeps him hunting down attackers for ninety minutes. His aggressive, high-stamina approach makes him a chaotic force, even if his defensive discipline occasionally unravels under pressure.
